Leap Day

2-15-12 "The greatest need of the human heart is encouragement. Let me whisper this secret in your ear: Every time you try to encourage someone else, your own soul will be flooded with a light and glow of peace and good cheer. Try is next time when the gloom is heavy and the load is barren."~Susa Young Gates~ I really love this and I know it is true! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-16-12 "Bless a thing and it will bless you. Curse it and it will curse you...If you bless a situation, it has now power to hurt you, and even if it is troublesome for a time, it will gradually fade out, if you sincerely bless it."~Emmet Fox~ "I promise you the Lord will not turn His back on us now...He knows the way because He is the way..."~Elder Jeffery R. Holland~ Trust in the Lord because "all these things shall give thee experience and shall be for thy good (D&C 122:7). I love you! Kimee:-)

2-17-12 "Everything in life that we really accept undergoes a change."~Katherine Mansfield~ "What is the acceptance? Acceptance is surrendering to what is: our circumstances, our feelings, our problems, our financial status, our work, our health, our relationships with people, the delay of our dreams. Before we can change anything in our life we have to recognize that this is the way it's meant to be right now. For me, acceptance has become what I call the long sigh of the soul. It's the closed eyes in prayers, perhaps even the quiet tears. It's 'all right', as in 'All right, You lead, I'll follow'. And it's 'all right,' as in 'Everything is going to turn out all right'. This is simply part of the journey."~Sarah Ban Breathnach~ I know too that when I really accept the Lord's will then prayers are answered and burdens are lifted! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-18-12 "Your diamonds are not in the far distant mountains or in yonder seas; they are in your own backyard, if you but dig for them." ~Russell H. Conwell~ And I know the best way to dig for them is to pray and trust in the Lord, because He knows where the real diamonds of not only life but eternity are buried! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-19-12 "Furthermore, we note that not only has the Savior suffered, in His case entirely innocently, but so have most of the prophets and other great men and women recorded in the scriptures. The point is this: If you are having a bad day, you've got a lot of good company--very good company. The best company that has ever lived." ~ Elder Jeffery R. Holland~ Always remember that you are not alone and that all things are for out good...so be of good cheer! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-20-12 "No pessimist ever discovered the secrets of the starts, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new heaven to the human spirit." ~ Helen Keller~ "Finding joy in the journey..."as President Thomas S. Monson said, if so important and powerful to find your stars, sail to your new lands, and open a new heaven! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-21-12 "You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you've collected a lot of empty yesterdays." ~ Meredith Wilson~ "My brothers and sisters, there is no tomorrow to remember if we don't do something today!" ~President Thomas S. Monson~ Now is the time and trusting the Lord is the way! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-22-12 "Trusting in the unknown with the One who knows all." This is a perfect quote my sister shared with me and what more can I say than AMEN! Have a fabulous day! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-23-12 "It is possible to learn more about compassion in one quiet act of selflessness than in a hundred fiery sermons." ~Richard Paul Evans~ And the One whose bowels are filled with compassion because of an infinite number of quiet acts, is our Savior Jesus Christ. So turn to Him! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-24-12 "I have come to believe that we do not walk alone in this life. There are others, fellow sojourners, whose journey are interwoven with ours in seemingly random patterns, yet in the end, have been carefully placed to reveal a remarkable tapestry. I believe God is the weaver of the loom." ~Richard Paul Evans ~ I totally believe this as Heavenly Father has truly woven some of the most wonderful people into my life, especially during challenging times. So grateful those angels He sends, and especially to know that I am never alone and also that He and His Son are always with me too!! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-25-12 "Rarely do we invest the time to open the book of another's life. When we do, we are usually surprised to find it's cover so misleading and its reviews so flawed." ~Richard Paul Evans~ Hence the phrase: "Don't judge a book by it's cover." We truly never know what is going on in someone's life until we take time to read their book! Have a wonderful Sabbath! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-26-12 "When we look for the fruits and make them our focus, we receive help from higher sources, and the walls that formerly held us back ultimately come down. It is sad that Isreal had to wait forty year to discover this truth." ~ S. Michael Wilcox~ HOPE is what we must have and trust in the Lord's time too, especially when waiting for walls of pain to fall, but keep looking forward to the fruits and they will come down! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-27-12 lost it some how.....=0(

2-28-12 "...life was never intended to consist of a glut of luxery, be an easy course, or filled only with success. There are those games wich we lose, those races in which we finish last, and those promotions which never come. Such experiences provide opportunities for us to show our determination and to rise above disappointment." ~ President Thomas S. Monson~ Though we go through hard times, always remember that in the stands and even carrying us at times is our biggest cheerleader: Christ! I love you! Kimee:-)

2-29-12 "By work we sustain and enrich life. It enables us to survive the disappointments and tragedies of moral experience. Hard-earned achievement brings a sense of self-worth. Work builds and refines character [and] creates beauty." ~Elder D. Todd Christofferson~ I am so grateful my wonderful parents taught me how to work and for the experiences the Lord allows me to go though which I must trust in Him and use the blessed principle of hard work! I love you! Kimee:-)
