Latter Day Light DAILY DEVOTIONAL February 24 The Temple |
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." |
QUOTE OF THE DAY Thomas S. Monson "As we attend the temple, there can come to us a dimension of spirituality and a feeling of peace which will transcend any other feeling which could come into the human heart. . . . Such peace can permeate any heart---hearts that are troubled, hearts that are burdened down with grief, hearts that feel confusion, hearts that plead for help" ("Blessings of the Temple," Ensign, May 2015). |
