ABCs

A gal in my ward sent an email to me and others, and she said she felt inspired to share a message with us all from President Monson.  It was very timely for me, as you know if you read my last post:


President Monson's ABC's......


"A is for attitude, changing the inner attitudes of our minds, we can change the outer aspects of our lives. To do the best we can and then to choose to be happy about our circumstances, whatever they may be, can bring peace and contentment.

B is for believe--in yourself, in those around you, and in eternal principles. You can achieve what you believe you can. Trust and believe and have faith.

C is for courage. Courage becomes a worthwhile and meaningful virtue when it is regarded not so much as a willingness to die manfully but as a determination to live decently.

There will be times when you will be frightened and discouraged. You may feel that you are defeated. The odds of obtaining victory may appear overwhelming. At times, you may feel like David trying to fight Goliath. But remember, David did win!!
May we all remember these ABC's as we begin our journney, cultivate a positive ATTITIDE, a BELIEF that you can achieve, and the COURAGE to face whatever challenges may come our way. "
