Living the Principle: Our Salvation and Our High Tower
- Begin each day with a prayer specifically asking the Lord to be your strength and refuge, then record in a journal how you felt His support throughout the day.
- Set aside time to serve someone in need or share the gospel, deliberately doing so in the Savior’s name as a way of extending His love and salvation to others.
- Create a personal “refuge plan” by choosing a hymn, scripture, and place of quiet reflection you can turn to whenever you need to feel the Savior’s protection and peace.
