Thanksgiving Email

Hello to all everywhere reading this, as always my time is very limited so this week i would like to share a few pictures and as well with the week of thanksgiving express a couple of things i am grateful for:

Gratitude is one of the cardinal virtues of life. Gratitude has the power to bring about monumental change for good. It is typically generalized as a gentle quality- Tender, sweet, modest, serene, temperate, humble, kindly, unassuming, and peaceful. But at its heart, gratitude also takes part of power, light, and majesty. Power to transform human relationships in enduring ways; light that attracts the admiration of others and the loyalty of willing followership; and majesty that lifts the sons and daughters of God closer in nature to their divine parentage. Truly, the miracle of gratitude is its ability to empower, illuminate, and lift almost instantaneously. 

D&C 78:19 And he who receiveth all things with thankfulness shall be made glorious; and the things of this earth shall be added unto him, even an hundred fold, yea, more.

D&C 98:1 Verily I say unto you my friends, fear not, let your hearts be comforted; yea, rejoice evermore, and in everything give thanks;

Some things that i am grateful for include my opportunity to serve as a representative of our Lord and Savior, and as well i am so grateful for my family, friends, opportunities of service and talents, and the ability to help and uplift others with these blessings of mine as well. 

My invite for you all this week is to thank your family, friends, and especially our heavenly father for the things that we have been given, for our blessings, and be grateful eternally. These things i leave with you this week and always, in the sacred name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, Amen.

-Elder Matthew Arscott
