"When the challenges of mortality come, and they come for all of us, it may seem hard to have faith and hard to believe. At these times only faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His Atonement can bring us peace, hope, and understanding. Only faith that He suffered for our sakes will give us the strength to endure to the end. When we gain this faith, we experience a mighty change of heart, and like Enos, we become stronger and begin to feel a desire for the welfare of our brothers and sisters. We pray for them, that they too will be lifted and strengthened through faith on the Atonement of our Savior Jesus Christ."(Elder Robert D. Hales, "Finding Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ," Ensign, November 2004)
I think this is such a great reminder, because we certainly all have challenges!

What a great Quote! You always have the most meaning-filled quotes! I loved reading your 80's post. I laughed hard because it's all so true!
Thanks. I needed that!
Beautiful sentiments, beautiful blog template -- I'm glad I dropped in!
I love this quote...makes me so excited for conference. Hey, what's up with your menu thing? Do you plan out your meals each week at the beginning? I need meal organization tips and it looks like you've got a good thing going.
Thanks, Wendi.

Shawni--
I do plan at the beginning of each week, sometimes Saturday, but I'm usually not that good. Ever since I've started posting my menu plan Monday it's helped me be more organized. You should post yours too if you want!
