My Motto For The New Year!

As I was out serving one of those LDS missions I was given this quote by the late Prophet, Gordon B. Hinckley.  I read this quote almost every night when I read my scriptures - just cause it's my bookmark, and sometimes it's almost better to read this quote then my scriptures.  Hmm...going to Hell for that comment, I'm sure of it!  Yeah, I really need to switch that habit (of reading just before bed), and read in the morning - I have always wanted to be a "morning scripture reader," but for some reason I just can't seem to get that mattress of mine off my back!!!  One can always try, or at least have good thoughts of wanting to make that a goal. ;-)

Sheesh, let's get to my quote that is so inspiring...

Here is my "words of wisdom" to live by:

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is.  It all works out.  Don't worry.  I say that to myself every morning.  It will all work out.  If you do your best, it will all work out.  Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future.  The Lord will not forsake us.  He will not forsake us...if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings He will hear our prayers."  
~ Gordon B. Hinckley

I need to go into this New Year with a positive outlook on life.  I have some goals a brewing in my mind, but I also just want to keep them to myself so I don't jinks them.  So, I wish everyone the best of luck this New Year - it's always exciting to see what life can bring each person.

To 2012 my Peeps, to 2012!!!

I always wanted to be a morning anything (reader, cleaner, exerciser) but I have the same problem you have. Dang mattress!

That's a great quote! Should we add that to our goal of going to the gym early in the morning? Good luck with that ;)
