For Teji, a young woman, standing atop Utah’s Ensign Peak and viewing the vastness of the Salt Lake Valley was a metaphor of God’s grand designs.
“I think being able to see this perspective — and especially when we were down at the bottom and we had such a smaller view — kind of shows us that even sometimes when we’re struggling in life [and] we don’t understand why certain things are happening — this can remind us that there’s always a bigger picture and there’s always going to be a reason for things,” Teji said.
Teji participated with other youth of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in a worldwide devotional that focused on this year's theme for teenage members of the Church, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me," which is based on Paul’s letter to the Philippians in the New Testament.
Watch this At a Glance that captures key points of discussion between youth and Church leaders, led by Elder Garrit W. Gong of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
