Ancient Sunstones and Transparent Glass

Last updated on: November 12, 2020 at 8:04 am By Delisa Hargrove

I’m fascinated by the physical and symbolic characteristics of rocks, glass, sunstones (tesserae). In “Come Follow Me” this week, we’ve reached one of my all-time favorite physical object stories. And it came to pass that the brother of Jared, (now the number of the vessels which had been prepared was eight) went forth unto the mount, which they called the mount Shelem, because of its exceeding height, and did molten out of a rock sixteen small stones; and they were white and clear, even...

Learning to Let God Prevail

Last updated on: October 7, 2020 at 8:21 am By Delisa Hargrove

President Nelson called for us to consider our willingness to let God prevail in our lives in a stirring list of questions. The question for each of us … is the same. Are you willing to let God prevail in your life? Are you willing to let God be the most important influence in your life? Will you allow His words, His commandments, and His covenants to influence what you do each day? Will you allow His voice to take priority over any other?... Read more

Ask Questions

Last updated on: October 3, 2020 at 6:49 pm By Delisa Hargrove

“One of the key ways that we learn…is by asking questions. Some seem to believe that faith and questions are antithetical. Such could not be further from the truth. The Restoration itself was unfolded by the proper and necessary melding of both. The Prophet Joseph Smith had both faith and questions. Indeed, the passage of scripture that led Joseph to the Sacred Grove experience includes both a question and the promise of an answer based on the asker’s faith. I marvel... Read more

Last updated on: September 17, 2020 at 6:38 pm By Delisa Hargrove

Sister Brynlee Ashton shared her struggle to change the self-condemnation in her relationship with God into a motivating force for action and positive change. This is a subject I’ve pondered a lot and I really enjoyed the way she shared her discovery and results. By Sister Brynlee Ashton, England Leeds Mission Let’s talk, shall we?

Grow Where You Are Planted

Last updated on: September 9, 2020 at 5:13 pm By Delisa Hargrove

I love how nature becomes a ready metaphor to teach such amazing lessons! Alma testified that all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator. Kurt Johnson paints a picture-perfect metaphor of one of my favorite images. Grow Where You Are Planted Have you ever seen a tree growing out... Read more

Who Is Your Book of Mormon Hero?

Last updated on: September 4, 2020 at 2:41 pm By Delisa Hargrove

Who is your Book of Mormon hero? My friend Rena Phung invited me to join a group of her friends and family in reading the Book of Mormon before October General Conference. People have shared insights as we’ve read through the Book of Mormon to reach our goal. One day, Rena asked the group, “Who is one of your Book of Mormon heroes and why?” I loved Rena’s own emphatic and joyful declaration of her Book of Mormon hero. I... Read more

“The Pathway” by Roberta Flake Clayton

Last updated on: August 22, 2020 at 10:59 am By Delisa Hargrove

We all travel the pathway of life. And while our journeys are uniquely personal, we all share in the generalities of life’s journey. How do you view life’s peaks and valleys, the brambles and blooms? I have a collection of poems written by my second great aunt Roberta Flake Clayton (19 August 1877 – 12 January 1981.) Her 143rd birthday rolled by this week. The Pathway is one of my favorites in the collection. I have been both travelers on... Read more

The Love Poem I Should Have Expected From Her

Last updated on: August 14, 2020 at 2:24 pm By Delisa Hargrove

While reviewing letters my grandmother wrote to my grandfather on his mission, I came across a long, sweet letter telling the happenings of her week. She closed the letter, “Love to you from someone who is lonesome for you but who is glad you are having the glorious privilege of a mission.” Then she added a hasty postscript, “I am enclosing a poem I thought you might like. Love again.” She underlined “Love again” heavily. I turned the page curiously... Read more

Who Are You Choosing to Follow Into Battle?

Last updated on: August 10, 2020 at 12:45 pm By Delisa Hargrove

When a warring people called the Anti-Nephi-Lehies learned about their Savior Jesus Christ, they promised the Lord to never use their swords again, ever. Because of that promise, many of them were killed when enemies came against them. They moved to a previous enemy’s land where they were welcomed and given protection. In return, the Anti-Nephi-Lehies provided the armies protecting them with food and other necessities. The war between their old people and their new people grew fierce. They felt... Read more
