Do you experience discouragement or feel depressed sometimes? Today I will share 12 ways we can help lift our spirits and not despair. I'm sharing from a talk given in 1974! Yes, that's a while ago. It still applies today! I love this talk. I listen to it again and again.
Ezra Taft Benson gave these 12 ways in a talk given to a group of men. I will add a bit of commentary, but will primarily read his words. His words are SO DIALED IN.
"We can rise above the enemies of despair, depression, discouragement, and despondency by remembering that God provides righteous alternatives."
Here are "A dozen ways, which if followed, will lift our spirits and send us on our way rejoicing:"
- Repentance
- Prayer
- Service
- Work
- Health
- Reading
- Blessing
- Fasting
- Friends
- Music
- Endurance
- Goals
You may listen or read this talk by President Benson here.
