I feel like today I need to post about an experience that I thought I had posted about last year, but I can't seem to find now. Last year about this time of year I was feeling very bogged down by the wickedness of this world and the choices I was seeing others make. It made me very sad to watch others destroy their lives. One particular day I was headed to my friend Tia's house and saw a billboard on the roadside showing all the beautiful spring flowers on temple square that simply stated, "There is beauty all around."
The spirit stated to me that there indeed was beauty all around and it was not only in the landscape, but there were also beautiful people make good choices. He reminded me that I needed to focus on the beauty around me and stop looking for the storms in world around me and I would see how truly beautiful the world was. It is true and I am thankful for that small and simple lesson.
As I look for the beauty around me I find that people really are good and that there are many beautiful souls upon the earth who are of good hearts. There will always be sin and sorrow, but if we look to Jesus Christ he will be the light that our souls need in a dark and dreary world. I am thankful for the light the son brings into my life. The Lord truly is my light!
