Compassion

In honor of President's Day, for family night tonight we talked about George Washington.  How he believed in Christ and how he had many Christlike qualities. Loved this quote from one of his soldiers, "We are sitting in Valley Forge and waiting.....Although we are suffering here terribly, I am loyal with all my heart to George Washington....He gazes upon the soldiers who are suffering from the cold. And sometimes he approaches one of the sleeping soldiers and covers him, as a father would cover his son." 

How grateful I am to be an American and for all those, many who have done so without recognition, who have positively influenced our country so greatly.

I am grateful for God's hand in leading George Washington and his soldiers to victory during the American Revolution.  Because of the constitution that was established, our country was blessed with religious freedom, where the gospel could be restored through the Prophet Joseph Smith.

God bless America!
