I have figured out another way to make my chilly home feel warm. Besides turning up the heat or turning on the oven, I mean. Bundle up, go out, and visit someone whose home is even colder. After a few hours there, 65 degrees is downright comfortable. Ahh, for spring. Only 3 more months.
Tomorrow I get to teach about principles of the gospel that help to ease our burdens. Elder Clayton gave a wonderful talk about it here, and it is full of good gems, like these:
" ... bearing up under our own burdens can help us develop a reservoir of empathy for the problems others face."
and
"Through it all, the Savior offers us sustaining strength and support, and in His own time and way, He offers deliverance."
I also learned today that gratitude helps bring perspective, which strengthens my shoulders and enables me to bear my burdens with greater ease. How grateful I am for a knowledge of the Savior, who said, "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
