I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Last night, January 2nd, our beloved prophet President Thomas S. Monson passed away. He leaves behind a legacy of faith, dedication and love. As a member of the church, it’s sad and tearful to see such a wonderful man leave his earthly home. I find comfort in the fact that he is free from his ailing mortal body and the knowledge that he was greeted by his dear wife and loved ones on the other side. I’m sure the heavens were rejoicing as they welcomed him.

Today I was reading over some of President Monson’s words from past conferences of the church. My heart was filled with love as I pondered many of his messages during a lifetime of service. President Monson was a spiritual giant and a true man of God. He will be missed.

I often find that creating and designing helps me work through feelings and emotions. I thought I’d share a few of President Monson’s quotes with you.
