29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one
of them shall not fall on the ground without your
Father.
Time to Rise
By Robert Luis Stevenson
A birdie with a yellow bill
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Hopped upon a window sill
31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many
sparrows.
3 Nephi 17:21 And when [Jesus} had
said these words, he wept and the
multitude bare record of it, and he
took their little children, one by one,
and blessed them, and prayed unto
the Father for them.
"Suffer the little children to come
unto me, and forbid them not: for
such is the kingdom of God." Mark
10:14
"For God so loved the world that he
gave his only begotten son…" John
3:16

"I shall pass through this world but once.
Any good therefore that I can do or any
kindness that I can show to any human being,
let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect
it, for I shall not pass this way again."
Stephen Grellet
I am only one By Edward Everett Hale
I am only one
But I am one
I cannot do everything
But I can do something
What I can do
I ought to do
And what I ought to do
By the grace of God I will do.

[Jesus} had said these

TWELFTH NIGHT
"God answers prayers"
By Eliza M. Hickok
I know not by what methods
rare,
But this I know, God answers
prayers.
I know that He has given His
Word,
Which tells me prayer is
always heard,
And will be answered, soon or
late,
And so I pray and calmly wait.
I know not if the blessing
sought
Will come in just the way I
thought;
But leave my prayers with Him
alone,
Whose will is wiser than my
own,
Assured that He will grant my
quest,
Or send some answer far more
blest.
Here’s to thee, old apple tree,
Whence thou may’st bud
And whence thou may’st blow,
And whence thou may’st bear apples
enow;
Hats full and caps full,
Bushels full and sacks full,
And our pockets full too.
~Mother Goose~
1 Nephi 6:5
5 Wherefore,
the things which are pleasing
unto the world I do not write,
[think say, do, obtain, read,
watch] but
the things which are pleasing
unto God and unto those who
are not of the world.
Last year's Primary Program, then the year prior to last:
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy might, mind,
and strength; and in the name of Jesus Christ thou shalt serve him” (D&C 59:5).
“If thou lovest me thou shalt serve me and keep all my commandments”
(D&C 42:29).
The Road not Taken
By Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth.
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

23 Therefore, cheer up your hearts and remember that ye are free to act
for yourselves—to choose the way of everlasting death or the way of
eternal life.

Poem for Mom:
Oh give me patience when tiny hands
Tug at me with their small demands.
And give me gentle and smiling eyes;
Keep my lips from sharp replies.
And let not fatigue, confusion or noice
Obscure my vision of life’s fleeting joys
So, when, years later, my house is still—
True worth is in being, not
seeming,—
In doing, each day that goes by,
Some little good—not in dreaming
Of great things to do by and by.
For whatever men say in their
blindness,
And spite of the fancies of youth,
There's nothing so kingly as
kindness,
And nothing so royal as truth.
We get back our mete as we
measure—
We cannot do wrong and feel
right,
Nor can we give pain and gain
pleasure,
justice avenges each slight.
