"The world is so dark today that we who are members of the Church need to shine out and be an example to others. We choose how brightly we shine—as represented by the people in my painting—for we are all on the same path in this life to better ourselves and return to our Heavenly Father. We must turn to our Father in Heaven and take refuge from the storm. In the end it all depends on how we arise and shine forth in these latter days. As the famous quote goes, “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass—it’s about learning to dance in the rain.”"
