A Time To Prepare - Ian S. Ardern

      What makes us decide how we will spend our time?  Our priorities.  Too often I think there is a difference between what we think our priorities are and what they truly are.  To find out what your priorities are right now, ask yourself what are the things that you make time for?  We have been given time on earth so that we can learn how to be our best selves.  We need to engage ourselves in good, uplifting activities that will help us reach that goal.

      "There is much that is good with our easy access to communication and information.  I have found it helpful to access research articles, conference talks, and ancestral records, and to receive emails, facebook reminders, tweets and texts.  As good as these things are, we cannot allow them to push to one side those things of greatest importance.  How sad it would be if the phone and computer, with all their sophistication, drowned out the simplicity of sincere prayer to a loving Father in Heaven.  Let us be quick to kneel as we are to text".
