Let Your Light So Shine

My mother has a "Scripture-A-Day" calendar next to her computer at home. The scripture on August 8, 2008 was 3 Nephi 12:16:

Therefore let your light so shine before this people, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

She taught us to always be kind, helpful, and respectful. Our mother made every effort and took every opportunity to demonstrate these qualities in her life. I know that her light stretches far beyond what any of us can see.

A Better Place


She’s in a better place right now
Than she’s ever been before;
All pain is gone; she’s now at rest;
Nothing troubles her anymore.


It’s we who feel the burden of
Our sadness and our grief;.
We have to cry, to mourn our loss,
Before we get relief.


We know we’ll reconnect with her
At the end of each life’s road;
We’ll see her cherished face again
When we release our earthly load.
