Changes to For the Strength of Youth

I saw today that the Church has released some revisions 

to the "For the Strength of Youth" pamphlet.

I've always LOVED the great advice in that pamphlet

and the great thing about it is,

there is no double standard with the church,

the standards apply to all of us,

both young and old.

I've perused the new version online

a little bit,

and this was by far my favorite quote:

from an Article by Sister Elaine Dalton 

under the section "Go Forward with Faith":

"You have been reserved to be here on the earth now. Your gifts and talents and your preparation now will help you to accomplish your divine mission—

and each of us has one. 

Each of you came to the earth with gifts to help you accomplish your part. 

Dare great things!....

Don’t let the low standards and expectations of the world and others cause you to aim beneath your nobility and ability—

dream big! 

What I know and have learned is that anything worth doing is not easy 

and that we can do anything that is not easy if we believe....

Did you know that the word confidence is derived from the Latin words con and fideo 

which means  

with faith. 

Confidence requires faith and purity. 

If you have a testimony of Jesus Christ, and His restored Gospel, 

you will be able to make any of life’s transitions. 

When you make a transition, you are never alone. 

Our Heavenly Father knows exactly where you are, 

and He will be with you. 

As you make some transitions, 

and they’re difficult, 

you can pray to Him. 

He will even send His angels to be with you. 

He will lead you to a place better than you can comprehend."

{Cannot even express how much I LOVED this quote!}

{also....I'm excited about those angels...}
