"No matter our situation, showing gratitude for our privileges is a unique, fast-acting, and long-lasting spiritual prescription."
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/inspiration/the-story-behind-my-global-prayer-of-gratitude?lang=engYou can thank the holy lighted pen for that.
Seriously? What exactly is "showing gratitude for our privileges" all about? Seven days of posting? Some people post seven times seventy posts in seven months others seven years. Gratitude is great but sharing it on social media grows as tiresome as those picture quotes with blinking angels. And it also is a platform for those posts we all know and love - the grateful boasting posts.
One would think Prophet Nelson could have had something more inspiring to say since he has the direct nightline to God.
Some encouragement. Something enlightening. Something to take our minds off of this time.
Nope. Take stock in your stock portfolios and thank God you've got a job and say it on Facebook. Hold tight to your pillow and say it to God directly.
I'm surprised he didn't throw in the scripture reading somehow. Well, I bet this is a teaser for his Christmas message. More boring platitudes and reminders of how privileged Mormons are.
