Dear Sisters,

This week, we were privileged to be taught by Sister Amy Erickson on President Uchtdorf’s talk from the April 2014 Conference titled, Grateful in Any Circumstances. President Uchtdorf teaches us that it is easy to be grateful when everything is right with our lives but when our world falls apart, gratitude seems to be far out of reach.  Elder Uchtdorf encourages us to be thankful in our circumstances, whatever they may be.  “When we are grateful to God in our circumstances, we can experience gentle peace in the midst of tribulation. In grief, we can still lift up our hearts in praise. In pain, we can glory in Christ’s Atonement. In the cold of bitter sorrow, we can experience the closeness and warmth of heaven’s embrace. We sometimes think that being grateful is what we do after our problems are solved, but how terribly shortsighted that is. How much of life do we miss by waiting to see the rainbow before thanking God that there is rain?” There is no lesson next week as it is General Conference. The following week, Oct 12th, we will be discussing Chapter 19 of the Joseph Fielding Smith manual, In the World but Not of the World.
