"Follow the Son"

We had our Young Women Evening of Excellence on Wednesday, our theme was......

"Follow the Son"
Sunflowers always follow the sun,
From early morning, 'till the day is done,
They follow across the sky until night
eargerly soaking in the warth of its light.

Like this loyal flower we too can be
Fed by His light spiritually,
As we follow His son, Jesus Christ
Becoming like Him as we soak in His light.

In most any soil their seeds will grow
With plenty of water and sunshine galour,
Small buds soon appear, then the protecting leave
And thick stocks to support the head full of seeds.

We too can grow where we are sown,
By studying the scriptures and learning of home,
Our parents, teachers and leaders protect us
As our testimony grows stronger of our brother Jesus.

When the sunflower crown forms, it's a royal gold
The blessings of it's growth are beginning to show,
The seeds you share; love, kindness and testimony too
Will help others see the Golden Crown in you.

So follow the Son, open your heart to His light,
Seek Him first thing each morning and last one at night,
Follow Him through the heat of each day,
Live your life to become like Him - It's the only way.

The Young Women did an excellent job on their projects that they did, the piano solo that Ashlee did was beautiful, wish I could play the piano like her. I wish I would of taken more pictures but I did manage to get a few. It was also a Recognition Night for Kassandra, she received her YW Medallion, she sang a solo and did an amazing job, she has such a beautiful voice, these girls are so talented and are truly the BEST around. Im so grateful for the Young Women program and to see how it turns these beautiful girls into beautiful women, inside and out.
