It's not that simple.
Good thing we have been given a brand new year to work on these things!!
I have a challenge for y'all!
Will you sit down,
Take your scriptures,
Take your scriptures,
Pick a Hero!
Read about him or her,
Write down their qualities you admire.
And strive to become more like them this year?
As we do this,
We will become more like our Savior.
And we can share His love with others!
Try it!
And we can share His love with others!
Try it!
Don't Give Up!

ReplyDeleteTrusted completely in God. Was rewarded due to his faith by God using him to save Israel and the nation of Egypt from starvation. He was given the gift of interpreting dreams, learned humility and wisdom. Showed love and forgiveness. Sometimes suffering is part of God's plan to bring about a greater good.
