The Mills Family

The Mills family THANKFUL blog ▪ Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our ...past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. –Melody Beattie

Background

God left the world unfinished; the pictures unpainted, the songs unsung, and the problems unsolved, that man might know the joys of creation.” –Thomas S. Monson

TRUST HIM

"...He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength...They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles;they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint" (Isa.40:28-29,31)

Life

We must stand for something...

United we must stand to defend the constitutional rights our country was founded upon. We must not allow idleness, ignorance, or fear to take away the freedoms that our forefathers gave their lives to obtain.

John 3:18

John 3:18
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotton son, That whosever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

We should always have "Hope"

  • lds.org-Pres. Uchtdorf's message

"FEAR NOT"

Some scriptural student has said that the comforting reassurance, "Fear not," is found 365 times in the Bible, once for everyday in the year. It is the first phrase that the angel used to the shepherds in announcing the birth of the Savior.

A quote that gives us hope!

"God said he doesn't give us any challenges beyond our ability to handle it... God must really trust me"
Mother Theresa

Jesus is our Shepherd

Jesus is our Shepherd
Wherefore, I am in your midst, and I am the good shepherd, and the stone of Israel. He that buildeth upon this rock shall never fall. And the day cometh that you shall hear my voice and see me and know that I am.

Family: It's What Matters Most

FAMILY

Feelings of worth can flourish in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible-- the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family.
--Virginia Satir

Favorite Quote from Oprah

"Keep a grateful journal, Everynight list FIVE things that happened this day that you are grateful for.
What it will do is change your perspective of your day and your life.
If you can learn to focus on what you have, you will always see that the universe is abundant. You will have more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never have enough." Oprah Winfrey
