"At the advent of a new year, ... undertake a personal, diligent, significant quest for what I call the abundant life—a life filled with an abundance of success, goodness, and blessings. Just as we learned the ABCs in school, I offer my own ABCs to help us all gain the abundant life. A in my ABCs refers to attitude. ... B is for believe—in yourself, in those around you, and in eternal principles. ... C is for courage. Courage becomes a worthwhile and meaningful virtue when it is regarded not so much as a willingness to die manfully but as a determination to live decently." Thomas Monson
This resonates with me not only because of the truth in these words but also because the name of this blog is "The Abundant Life" in reference to Christ's words in John 10:10
"I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
