We look forward to seeing each of you at the first session of General Conference on Saturday September 26, 2015 at 4:45 at the Centralia Stake Center.
September 1st, 2015
I just love new beginnings, don’t you? The first day of
September, first day of school, and so on. I’ve personally launched a new
effort toward healthier living today. I’m sixteen hours into it and I’m doing
great ;)
It’s easy to become discouraged with life’s adversities,
isn’t it? But, thanks to the Lord, we
have new beginnings and hope for better days ahead. I just wanted to encourage
you sisters to look on the bright side of things and keep on trying. As
President Monson said, “Let
us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with
friends and family.” " And now, O my son Helaman, behold, thou art in thy youth, and therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my words and learn of me; for I do know that whosoever shall put their trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles, and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day." Alma 36:3
In hard times she had learned three things-
She was stronger....than she ever imagined,
Jesus was closer...than she ever realized,
and
She was loved...more than she ever knew.
Wishing you joy as continue you journey!
Love,
Sister Chris Jackson
