We Thank Thee Oh God For a Prophet

I can't let the morning go by without mentioning the passing of President Hinckley, our beloved prophet. Although my own selfishness makes me tear up a little, I am happy he can finally reunite with his dear wife whom he obviously loved very much. I will miss his wit and wisdom, but mostly his unfailing love for the gospel of Jesus Christ and it's people everywhere.

President Hinckley is the prophet of my lifetime. I spent half of my life with him serving as prophet, seer, and revelator of this gospel. He is the first prophet I have much memory of. I remember so many of his addresses and specific council. I am so grateful for his council about families and his work to increase the number of temples on the earth. My love for the temple and regular temple attendance is in large part because of him. Especially my time in Columbus. We had a temple there thanks to President Hinckley. I am so grateful for his life and his divinely inspired words.
