Hope

Left in the dark, Abandoned
You feel the cool, hard rocks under your hands,
As you climb to your feet,
Your head swoons.As you tilt to the right.
Helpless without sight,

A rock wall catches you,
You stumble through the darkness,

You pray for a way out,
You continue to stumble.
Suddenly, you see.
Faint but there, you see a source of light.

Hope floods into your chest,
You legs seem strong,
The bruises loosing their pain.
You rush forward with a new drive.

The light is your guide, the light is your hope. As you follow the light, you can find your way out of the dark, cold earth into the warm rays of the sun. Jesus Christ said, "I am the way, the truth and the light, no man cometh to the father except by me." If your life seems hopeless, or you are stumbling over obstacles in your life, look to the light!

Want to do something regarding the Book of Mormon, that will actually be worth your time. Read this.

Trust in God's will and timing

It takes a certain level of humility and faith to be able to accept God's control in your life.

I have had a lot of experiences recently that have tested that faith and humility. When we trust in his will and timing, we work in faith to accomplish what the Lord wants us to do, and everything that happens around us, we trust that it will work out.

When we begin to assume that life should go a certain way, or when we get comfortable in how it is going, that is when we need to watch out. This life is for us to grow. Even though it would be nice for us to kick back and enjoy life sometimes, I know that this is not when I grow the most. I am content that as I continue to build my faith and trust in the Lord, everything will work out right.

In a recent conference talk entitled, "As Many as I Love I Rebuke and Chasten" Elder Christofferson told this story
