20 things the year 2020 has helped me appreciate more

By Jannalee Sandau

Before President Russell M. Nelson’s challenge to turn social media into our own gratitude journals, there were dozens of lists online of things to be grateful for in the year 2020. Since his invitation, millions of ideas have been added by those using #GiveThanks. But there are a few spiritual things that I think we have become more grateful for this year, as we have either relied on them more or had to do without them. Everyone’s list will look a little different depending on personal circumstances, but here are a few things that I think many of us have come to appreciate more than ever this year (in no particular order).

Elder Holland Shares a Dream and Touching Personal Story That Shows How We Can Improve Our Family Relationships

By Robert L. Millet

I was immersed in reading and referencing and marking; deadlines were crowding in on me. Ironically, I was perusing President David O.

I responded to Angie that I was very busy and couldn't make it. Within three minutes David crawled over and asked: "Dad, you come play?" I called out to my wife at that point: "Shauna, can't you see that what I am doing is important? Could you please keep these children out of my hair until I finish this project?"
