Day 151

Today I read an article by President Henry B. Eyring about having courage. He talked about how having the Holy Ghost with us can help us find courage because not only does it prompt us what to do, it comforts us when we know we need to do something difficult. I loved this line from his talk: "That communication with God helps banish fear from our hearts as it builds faith and love of Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ."

I love how having the Holy Ghost can "banish fear". I remember hearing President Monson say once that "fear is the opposite of faith." We can't have fear and faith in our hearts at the same time. Having faith means I'll be accepting of whatever comes because I know it's according to Heavenly Father's plan.
