Brightness of Faith=Brightness of Future! The Prophet at the 179th Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints



Brightness of Faith=Brightness of Future...........
At first glance the equation would probably seem a bit too baffling or even simplistic for those who don't have the benefit of the knowledge of the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ-and indeed probably might seem that way for many who do. When the Prophet Thomas S. Monson said in the Sunday Morning Session(April 5th) : "Fear Not, Be of Good Cheer-Your Future is as Bright as Your Faith", it was as if a lightbulb was turned on again for me. The fact that My Future would indeed be as bright as My faith was in a way disconcerting at first-There is a LOT of ugliness out there to distract and dampen. The Fog of discouragement is often thick. But as we grow and push as hard as we can toward making our faith as bright as we can make it, the Future part of the equation will be something to thank Our Heavenly Father and Savior for. I thank My Heavenly Father for this Prophet. He is a man who loves You and Me. He is sensitive to Suffering of others. He is a supernal representative of Our Heavenly Father and Savior in every way. He loves Literature. He Loves Learning. He has held positions in the Church and has served and sacrificed for others in many ways that will most likely remain unknown. He shirks his own comfort when others are in distress. I am thankful for this Prophet. :-)



Here is a Cool Link to a story I found about the Prophet. Take time to read it!
