October Presidency Message
As fall is quickly approaching I'm drawn to the thought of a leaf. What does a leaf mean to us? The first thing I think of is turning over a new leaf in our lives, something we want to improve on. There are so many things I can think of that I want to improve on, but the list is undaunting. We can "turn over a new leaf" in areas of our lives: physical, spiritual, intellectual, and social. My former seminary teacher, Bro. Robinson, taught me that we all need to live a well balanced life. He related it to a square. He said, "the spiritual side, is most often neglected, and little thought of when in reality, it is the most important." For myself, that's one that I believe I need to work on the most! He also related a formula with a triangle. Each of the 3 points on a triangle stand for prayer, study and service. These three things develop our testimony and strengthen it. We are all in different places in our lives, but we all can improve and grow to achieve a well balanced life! Choose something good for you in one of these areas and continue to do those important points of the triangle.
