Daily Gems

A Gem worth framing....
Counsel for Mothers (And everyone else on the planet)
"Sisters, find some time for yourself to cultivate your gifts and interests. Pick one or two things that you would like to learn or do that will enrich your life, and make time for them. Water cannot be drawn from an empty well and if you are not setting aside a little time for what replenishes you, you will have less and less to give to others, even to your children. Avoid any kind of substance abuse, mistakenly thinking that it will help you accomplish more. And don't allow yourself to be caught up in the time-wasting, mind-numbing things like television soap operas or surfing the Internet. Turn to the Lord in faith, and you will know what to do and how to do it."

M. Russell Ballard,
"Daughters of God," Ensign, May 2008, 110

I look forward to receiving Daily Gems on my Google Reader each day. Do you subscribe to Daily Gems? If not , go to lds.org and bring it on. You will receive daily inspiration via your e-mail inbox or google reader.
