Serving on Our Feet

Sweet Is the Work
by Linda Garner
‘Often, the answer to our prayer does not come while we’re on our knees,’ said President Uchtdorf, ‘but while we’re on our feet serving the Lord and serving those around us.’ We had some of those family problems that hadn’t yielded to fasting and prayer. So our hearts rejoiced at the thought that serving a mission might bring the blessings we longed for.

Gratitude for the Wayward Child
by Linda Garner
We may not understand why our children wander when we raised them in the gospel. Many parents feel guilt and shame and wonder where they went wrong. Those with a wandering child can feel intense pain from feeling the fabric of their eternal families being torn.
But letting go of pain and control allows us to trust Heavenly Father’s plan. Our Father has a plan for all His children, even our wandering children.
How do you trust in the Lord’s timing when a child has strayed from the gospel? We appreciate your comments.

Next Year for Sure: A Christmas Miracle
by Linda Garner
I smoothed the familiar fabric and put it away yet another time. This was the third Christmas I had given up on making Christmas pajamas. With seven children, it was difficult to find time for sewing, especially for sewing in secret. Christmas was always hectic, making it hard to get around to special projects. Next Christmas for sure, I always said.
How do you keep the spirit of Christ in Christmas? Have you had a special Christmas miracle in your life? We’d love your comments.

Gratitude Unlocks the Fullness of Life
by Linda Garner
What will I let go of this autumn? Some of my baggage is old and familiar. Shall I be done with it at last? Is it time to move on? Can I let it go, like softly falling leaves, and allow it to gather at my feet, where I can sweep it up and carry it out?
We welcome your comments.

What kind of reflection do we see in the mirror? Do we like what we see, or hate it? Do we agree with what we see of ourselves? (more…)
