In this blog I'm going to make frequent updates on things that are inspiring me to be a better person, and weekly updates of an interview with someone who in my eyes is "Like Unto Moroni".

Peace

Peace

 It can be found in many places... but only if sought for.  Peace does not sneak up on you.  Peace does not come uninvited.  Peace is not a cheap thing.  But it is always available.

Life will always have its conflicts and peace will always be wanted.  President Thomas S. Monson said the following:


"The consequences of conflict are so devastating that we yearn for guidance—even a way to ensure our success as we seek the path to peace. What is the way to obtain such a universal blessing? Are there prerequisites? Let us remember that to obtain God’s blessings, one must do God’s bidding. May I suggest three ideas to prompt our thinking and guide our footsteps:
  1. 1.
    Search inward;
  2. 2.
    Reach outward; and
  3. 3.
    Look heavenward."

What wonderful counsel!  I know that these 3 seemingly simple things can bring peace into our lives.  I challenge everyone to put it to the test in their lives, and see that the counsel of our Prophet is true.
