The Lighthouse

As we go along this journey called life we all face struggles and hard ships. We have all been lost at one point in our lives. At these moments of pain an sorrow we may feel as a captain lost at sea in a terrible storm. The only thing that keeps us from crashing into jagged shore is the LIGHT HOUSE. Like the captain, in our lives we have a light house that will save us from utter destruction. He is Jesus Christ the Saviour of the world. He will rescue us from the dangers of the world.  

The Lord sends to us beams of hope and comfort that help us through the storm. These beams consist of family, friends, scriptures, prophets, uplifting music and many others. The beams the Lord has sent us will help us break through the storms of life and lead us back to his arms. The prophet Thomas S. Monson has counseled us to look to the lighthouse of the Lord. He states:

" There is no fog so dense, no night so dark, no gale so strong, no mariner so lost but what its beacon light can rescue. It beckons through the storms of life. The lighthouse of the Lord sends forth signals readily recognized and never failing."

I know no matter what the storms of life may bring us, The Savior and his teachings will bless our lives.  We must be willing to put our faith in him and hope for a better tomorrow!
