To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Our busy lifestyles can be overwhelming. All of us get caught up in the everyday drudgery of our “to-do” list. And if it’s not things we’re having to do, it’s worries that weigh us down, or health and safety issues, and so many things that life in general subscribes to. We have been told by […]
I have seen over and over a Relief Society Presidency all fired up and ready to serve after first being called only to fizzle out of steam after a year or so in the calling. I have to ask…how do you think those sisters, who served 25-50 years in their calling, did it? This happens […]
Are you guilty of zoning out when there is yet another lesson on missionary work? What more can be said anyway, right? Actually, if you are earnestly studying the scriptures, conscious of your own gratitude to our Heavenly Father, or even magnifying your calling in any way, you are anxious to spread the word of […]
We all know the dangerous distraction of talking or texting on our cell phones while driving. Hands free driving is not only an important safety guide, it is a law. This week I ran across an article written by a mom who found that in her own life the distraction of a cell phone lost […]
While serving my mission, we missionaries were asked to spend our time working with in-actives and reactivate them.

This Easter season, I have found myself thinking a lot about my great-grandmother Opal and grandmother Dixie, both who have past away in the last couple of years. With these women in mind, John 11:25-26 has meant more to me. I am the Resurrection and the Life; he that believeth in me, though he were […]
General Conference is a great time to stop and reevaluate our lives, make changes and overcome those challenges that we face. President Henry B. Eyring’s talk, “Mountains to Climb’ from the April 2012 General Conference inspired me. He helped me realize that I can climb the mountains in my life. President Eyring quoted President Spencer […]
We live in a busy world. We often complain, “I’m too busy,” or “I’m fighting fires here,” or “I’ll get to it when I have a minute to breathe.” But what does that really mean? There is no doubt that our calendars are full, but what are they really full of? The honest answer is […]
I have a friend, Ann, who broke both her legs right before Christmas. Now, to most of us, this would be a disaster in the proportions of the apocalypse. Her Christmas decorations were only half up, her shopping wasn’t done, and she was dismayed at being useless for at least two months. Her example of […]
