Stand steadfast at the harbor and let your light shine

Emily Freeman

“A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”

Proverbs 17:17

A brother born for adversity.

Wouldn’t it be a blessing if we could all learn to be that kind of friend?

The kind that lifts another who is drowning.

Who protects them from pain.

Who seeks the help that will bring healing.

Who provides watchcare, and companionship, and loyalty.

A friend who loveth at all times.

At all times.

Even on the very worst days, through the moments you prayed would never happen,

 when the serenity of life turns to catastrophe.

“The person we all love and appreciate is the one who’s coming in the door when everybody else is going out.”

“look to the lighthouse of the Lord, there is no fog so dense, no night so dark, no gale so strong, no mariner so lost but what the lighthouse of the Lord can rescue."

 Thomas S. Monson

"If you desire to make a difference in the world, you must be different from the world."

Elaine S. Dalton

But sometimes all we can do is stand steadfast at the harbor and let our light shine forth,

until those that are lost look for the light.
