I started reading this 365 day devotional at the beginning of the year to start off my day with something inspirational.

Ironically, President Hinckley just passed away, but he'll still be with me each day before I leave my home.

It was a Christmas gift when I met the prophet while on my mission. I love daily scripture and spiritual thought, perfect for days when you don't have time to read as much scripture as you like.

I've decided recently to try this book again. I have no issue with it, or its contents. I love Gordon Hinckley. It's a great little book with great little thoughts.

My rating is more an indictment of the style. I have never been one that loves the 365 day inspirational message type book. It feels like it should be in calendar form, and I'd flip through it as eagerly as a Far Side or Most Amazing Facial Hair calendar.

I just wish this book was in narrative form, and a tad more More...

Hi Friends!

I really liked this little daily thought book. The thoughts are very positive and uplifting, just like President Hinckley was...and I am sure still is! I read it at a time when a lot of things were going very well in my life (things are still fine), and it was an inspiration to start each day with a thought. You can actually start at anytime because it just goes throughout the whole year, and then you can start over! I highly recommend it, he is a great teacher!

I love having these little gems handy. I use it for FHE a lot. It is dated, 365 quotes. I like going to todays date and it seems like the quote is written for that specific day in my life.

I also love the way this book feels. It is small and chubby with a padded cover.

It make s a great gift, also....

My friend Adam gave this to me shortly after I was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Reading this each day gave me strength and the messages were very uplifting. Each message would be very inspiring for anyone, Latter Day Saint or not.

This is set up to be a daily read. I started to do that but went ahead and just read it through. I got alot of insight from this book. I can see the benefit that comes from starting the day with a good thought. I will probably use it as it was intended starting next year.

This is a great book for a daily thought that our family likes to read along with our daily scripture study. Or sometimes if we don't get to scriptures until the evening then this is a good quick thought for the morning to start the day.

This is a fun little book of scripture with commentary by President hinkley. I love his comments. It is a great way to spend just a few minutes inviting the spirit into your day and learning a little something about the gospel.

This book takes a year to read. It was really good! It has everyday of the year and each day it has a scripture and quote to go with that day. I really enjoyed this book!!! It made my day a lot better.

You can always count on Gordon B. Hinckley for some guided self improvement. I could read this book a hundred times and still learn something from him.

This is a short devotional-type book. My husband and I would read a little of it before we went to bed. Every day has a scripture and then a short quote from President Hinckley. Not a scripture-reading replacement, obviously, but a nice little book to have.

It was given to us as a gift (I think). I'm not much into books that you have to read page-by-page throughout the whole year. I just forget to read it and then it's "Oh, it's June now and my bookmark is in March. I'm a l More...
