Light

And that which doth not edify is not of God, and is darkness.
  
That which is of God is light;
and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light;
and that light groweth brighter and brighter until the perfect day."  
D&C 50:23-24
“I can’t stress too strongly that decisions determine destiny.  You can’t make eternal decisions without eternal consequences.
May I provide a simple formula by which you can measure the choices which confront you, It’s easy to remember, sometimes difficult to apply: You can’t be right by doing wrong; you can’t be wrong by doing right.  Your personal conscience always warns you as a friend before it punishes you as a judge”
(Decisions Determine Destiny, Nov 6, 2005 BYU Devotional Thomas S Monson)

Miracles

There are only two ways to live your life.  One is as though nothing is a miracle.  The other is as though everything is a miracle.

Toil's reward

"The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it,
but what he becomes by it."

Shake it up once in awhile---

If you always DO what you’ve always DONE, you’ll always BE what you’ve always BEEN.
I chose this picture of fire falls in Yosemite.  It is just a waterfall but it turns to fire at a certain time of the day in February if the clouds are just right. So even though it does the same thing everyday God can turn something ordinary into something extraordinary.

One Day at a Time

"The best thing about the future is that it comes only
one day at a time."
- Abraham Lincoln
We should try to make each one count, as they are numbered, for each of us.

Becoming

Ask yourself if what you are doing today is getting you closer to where you want to be tomorrow.
