| President Stolworthy receives recognition from Las Vegas City Council for work that our stake does with a nursing home in our area. This was yesterday. I was the photographer (with my new birthday macro lens!). |
Thought for the day:
I
have watched men filled with potential and grace disengage from the
challenging work of building the kingdom of God because they had failed a
time or two. These were men of promise who could have been exceptional
priesthood holders and servants of God. But because they stumbled and
became discouraged, they withdrew from their priesthood commitments and
pursued other but less worthy endeavors.
And
thus, they go on, living only a shadow of the life they could have led,
never rising to the potential that is their birthright. As the poet
lamented, these are among those unfortunate souls who “die with [most
of] their music [still] in them.”
Elder Uchtdorf quoting Oliver Wendell Holmes
