Remember Who You Are!
“Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
The world would have you believe that you are not significant—that you are out of fashion and out of touch. The world calls to you with unrelenting, noisy voices to “live it up,” “try everything,” “experiment and be happy.” Conversely, the Holy Ghost whispers and the Lord invites you to “walk in the paths of virtue,” “lay aside the things of this world,” “and cleave unto [your] covenants.”
The world places so much emphasis on physical attractiveness and would have you believe that you are to look like the elusive model on the cover of a magazine. The Lord would tell you that
you are each uniquely beautiful.
When you are virtuous, chaste, and morally clean, your inner beauty glows in your eyes and in your face.
you are each uniquely beautiful.
When you are virtuous, chaste, and morally clean, your inner beauty glows in your eyes and in your face.
Remember, you are daughters (and sons) of our Heavenly Father. He loves you so much that He sent His Son to show you the way to live, so that you could return to Him someday.
