Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Girls Camp

I have been BUSY getting things ready for girls camp. I found a quote that really made me think about all of our work with the girls.
"Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved." ~T.S. Monson
I have to say - I LOVE these YCL's!!! They are truly amazing! My heart goes out to them though for all the things they have to go through. It's a lot harder than when I was a teen. A LOT!!!! I often feel that we should love them and that should be the focus. Rather than the "problem" that needs to be solved. Because if you leave out the love - they feel like a problem!

Anywho, I really enjoyed that quote. Just thought I'd share. :)

Steph you are so right. I always loved my girls that went to camp, some more than others, but I loved them. I hope you have so much fun at camp, call me anytime you want. I miss talking to you.
