I MISS MY GRANDMA THOMPSON. SHE WAS SUCH A GREAT PART OF MY GROWING UP YEARS. I WAS REMINDED OF HER TODAY AS I WAS WATCHING A SESSION OF GENERAL CONFERENCE. PRESIDENT UCHTDORF WAS SPEAKING, GIVING A GREAT MESSAGE OF HOPE AND HE SAID “TODAY IS NOT THE WAY THAT IT WILL ALWAYS BE.” I REMEMBERED MY SISTER TELLING ME THAT OUR COUSIN HAD RECENTLY REMINDED HER OF A SAYING OF GRANDMA THOMPSON. “TODAY IS NOT ALWAYS”. AS I REMEMBERED HER WORDS I FELT HER CLOSE AROUND ME. IT WAS AS IF SHE WAS PATTING MY BACK AND SAYING HANG IN THERE, THINGS MAY LOOK A LITTLE BLEAK TODAY BUT JUST REMEMBER NOW IS NOT ALWAYS. AS PRES UCHTDORF CONTINUED TO SPEAK I HAD A VISION IN MY MIND OF HOW THINGS MIGHT LOOK IN THE FUTURE, A HOUSE FILLED WITH MARRIED KIDS AND GRANDKIDS ALL COMING TOGETHER TO ENJOY EACH OTHERS COMPANY. MANY HAPPY DAYS OF FAMILY AND FUN ARE SITTING ON MY HORIZON. I NEED TO REMEMBER “TODAY IS NOT ALWAYS” AND THE CARES OF TODAY WILL SOMEDAY BE TRANSFORMED INTO A GLORIOUS, WONDERFUL FUTURE. GOOD TO KNOW GRANDMA....THANKS FOR THE PEP TALK TODAY. LOVE YOU
