Day 91:

-Read: Ether 1-3

-Mark: Ether 3:4-5

"What ever Jesus lays his hand upon lives. If Jesus lays his hands upon a marriage, it lives. If he is allowed to lay his hands upon the family, it lives."

~President Howard W. Hunter

Something to think about: Look at the symbolism in the account of the Savior touching the stones that lit the way for the Jaredites. What does the account teach you about the touch of the Savior's hand? How have you felt the Lord's hand in your life?

I love this story, personally. It makes me wonder were I in this situation, would I have this same faith and courage that the brother of Jared has? Something to think about, eh!? But this is proof that with God, nothing is impossible. He made STONES have LIGHT! Now that's somethin! Seriously.

I love the quote from today. If Jesus lays his hands upon a marriage, it lives. If he is allowed to lay his hands upon the family, it lives. Such a beautiful thought. We need God in our lives. Without him we will be a mess, I've seen that firsthand. This gospel has all the answers. We just need to go forward with faith each day that this is the case and that God really does hear us.

Let us work on turning our lives over to God, after we do our part, and have the faith that He is capable of doing the rest when we honestly cannot. In Psalms 55:22 it reads, "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." And of course, the famous scripture, Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."
