Thought for the Day

Family,
Here's a quote I came across today while I was studying.
President Hinckley: Concerning the importance of family prayer: "I feel the morning and evening practice of kneeling together---father, mother, and children.  This, more than soft carpets, more than lovely draperies, more than cleverly balanced color schemes, is the things that will make for better and more beautiful homes."
And then for all of my Aaronic Priesthood young men, Elder Oaks had this to say:  "Through the Aaronic Priesthood ordinances of baptism and the sacrament, we are cleansed of our sins and promised that if we keep our covenants we will always have His Spirit to be with us.  I velieve that promise not only refers to the Holy Ghost but also the ministering of angels, for 'angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore, they speak the words of Christ.'  So it is that those who hold the Aaronic Priesthood open the door for ALL Church members who worthily partake of the sacrament to enjoy the companionship of the Spirit of the Lord and the ministering of angels."
PaPa Lynn and I are proud of you for ALWAYS being worthy to pass and bless the Sacrament.  Imagine what a blessing you are to the people in the audience when you WORTHILY administer the ordinances of the Sacrament each week.  You will always be blessed for using your Priesthood in service of others.  Always be worthy to go to the temple so we can go with you!
Love You ALL
Mom and Dad, Grannie & PaPa Lynn
