message for today ~ The path of the Peacemaker ~ Kim B. Clark
Meme:
Talk: The path of the Peacemaker ~ Kim B. Clark BYU Idaho 2009 (begins at time stamp 8:21)
Ponder this: "We know that things will happen to disrupt our peace of mind. We live in a fallen world, and things happen to everyone. But whether a disruption lasts a long time or a brief moment depends on us. It is our choice. I know that is true. Sister Clark and I have faced many storms in our lives. In those experiences we have learned that we have to choose to look into the mirror of Christ. It requires an act of both faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and personal determination. Our natural instincts will take us right to the mirror of fear. But we have our agency, and we don't have to take counsel from our fears. We can choose hope and say, "I am not going to look into the mirror of fear. I am going to fix my eyes on the mirror of Christ, trust the Lord, and act in faith."
I know from my own experience that if you choose the mirror of Christ you authorize the Holy Ghost to minister to you. He will "show unto you all things what ye should do." Your feelings of self-worth and confidence in the Lord will grow, and peace of mind will return. You will go forward, acting in faith to face the storm and work through it. This is the path of the peacemaker.

message for today ~Gifts of the Spirit for Hard Times ~
MEME:
TALK: Gifts of the Spirit for Hard Times | Henry B. Eyring | 2006
PONDER THIS:
Feeling the influence of the Holy Ghost works both ways: the Holy Ghost only dwells in a clean temple, and the reception of the Holy Ghost cleanses us through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. You can pray with faith to know what to do to be cleansed and thus qualified for the companionship of the Holy Ghost and the service of the Lord.

Message for Today: ~ Why the Covenant Path ~
MEME:
MY THOUGHTS:
This week we had one of the best days of our mission and on of the hardest days of our mission. Let me explain.
We dropped in on a family. They were not happy to see us and asked why we were trying to contact them, they are happy with their church and our church believed that the prophet would get them back to heaven. (well, there was a misunderstanding) We testified that Jesus Christ was the begotten son of God and it is through his atonement in the garden and on the cross is the only way we are saved and can return to our Heavenly Father. We talked more and got acquainted with them and left feeling like we may have planted some seeds of understanding. Later that day we dropped off a gift of the Book of Mormon to a woman we met last week in Home Depot. She was so happy we thought of her and said she would read the book because she loved reading about God. That was the good day.
The hardest day was when we stopped and talked with a couple and just had a chat with no purpose but to get to know them. We left and drove to another home and stopped. I had an overwhelming feeling of being lost, not in our physical location but it what our purpose was in going to see them. We had no message to share with them and I was LOST and in the dark, without a purpose. (After the speech I will tell the rest of the story.)
SPEECH; D Todd Christofferson | Why the Covenant Path | General Conference April 2021 | Faith To Act
We didn't go into that home but went back to our apartment and prayed, studied, and discussed our purpose. It is basicly the same as all missionaries. To invited and help others come unto Jesus Christ through Faith in Jesus Christ, Baptism, Receiving the Holy Ghost and Enduring to the end. Since we are working with inactive members and newly baptized members we redefined our purpose as: to help others stay on the covenant path.
The lost feelings left, the lack of motivation left, the dark feelings, left and through our prayers, study and discussion we received the strength and power we needed to continue our finding and teaching

Message for today: ~Overcoming Spiritual Logokophosis~
MEME:
DEFINITION: Logokophosis-an inability to comprehend spoken language
SPEECH: by Peggy Worthen, Overcoming Spiritual Logokophosis
TESTIMONY:
It is important that you know the consequences of sin. It is death. Not physical death but spiritual death. You cannot be with Father in Heaven nor your family. Learn the words of God through the scriptures and prayer. They will give you the way to eternal life through Jesus Christ the Lord. Listen to the spirit and hear how much you are loved and wanted by a loving Father in Heaven and by me. "Feast upon that which perisheth not, neither can be corrupted..." The world is in commotion but you can be at peace and live in joy!

Message for today ~ God Knows What I Need ~
MEME:
SPEECH:
TESTIMONY:
"So ask, seek, and knock in prayer; but remember, you may not get what you want (like a girl named Myra Mains or a job with EFY), but if you stay faithful, you will get what you need--and perhaps find in the end, like me, what you needed you would later discover was also what you wanted.
I bear my testimony that God lives, and Jesus is the Christ, and They can manage my life so much better than I can. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen."
