A Thankful Thanksgiving

During the month of November I always try to take note of something i'm grateful for every day...helps get me in the Thanksgiving spirit.  So this year, I've decided to share with you.  I hope it helps get you in a grateful mood!

Today I am thankful for profets.  What a blessing it is to live in a time when we have men on the earth who can give us direction from our Heavenly Father.  And even more of a blessing to live in an area where I frequently have the opportunity to see and hear from the leaders of my church. This morning I was able to sit at the feet of one of those profets (more like half a stadium above him) and receive guidance and comfort.  Here are a few tid-bits that especially stood out to me from Prs. Monsons devotional:

  • We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, but rather spiritual beings having a mortal experience 
  • When you choose to follow Christ you choose to be changed.  The world shapes human nature, but Christ changes human nature - allowing you to change others.
  • You are more than what you have become.  Look inside yourself and remember...remember. (this quote was courtesy of The Lion King)
