look and live
Jesus Christ is the source of my light. When I look to Him I grow and live. Without a strong connection to Him, I begin to spiritually die. (1)
Just as the children of Israel looked to the brazen serpent to be healed (2) and Lehi’s family looked to the Liahona for guidance to the promised land (3), I look to God each day when I choose to perform small and simple acts of faith including: meaningful prayer and scripture study, ministering to those around me, weekly temple attendance, watching only wholesome entertainment, and taking care of my body. It is through these simple, yet significant, actions that I strengthen my connection to God and truly live.
