Here’s your daily dose of what matters most! Being of good cheer makes it possible for us to dispel fear and turn all of our sunsets into sunrises!
Scripture
Wherefore, be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you; and ye shall bear record of me, even Jesus Christ, that I am the Son of the living God, that I was, that I am, and that I am to come.—Doctrine and Covenants 68:6
Quote
Good cheer is best shared by those who will discard fear, cheerfully accept what comes and use it wisely, become converted, obey the commandments of God, avoid self-deceit and rationalization. Being of good cheer makes it possible for us to turn all of our sunsets into sunrises.—Marvin J. Ashton
