VT MESSAGE - “CONSIDER THE BLESSINGS” By Pres. Thomas S. Monson

           

We live in a unique time in the world's history. We are blessed with so very much. And yet it is sometimes difficult to view the problems and permissiveness around us and not become discouraged. I have found that, rather than dwelling on the negative, if we will take a step back and consider the blessings in our lives, including seemingly small, sometimes overlooked blessings, we can find greater happiness.  I would recommend this exercise to you--namely, that you take an inventory of your life and, look specifically for the blessings, large and small, you have received.
