President Hinckleys Bees

An Address and Prayer given to the Youth of the LDS Church in January 2001 by Satelite Broadcast From President Gordon B. Hinckley There are 9.
6 were given originally and 3 were added at a later date



The first 6 are::

Bee Grateful
Walk with gratitude in your hearts
Express appreciation to everyone who does us a favor or assists us in any way.

Bee Smart
Educate your minds and hands, whatever your chosen field. Whether it be repairing refrigerators, or the work of a skilled surgeon, you must train yourselves. Become an influence for good.

Bee Clean
We live in a world filled with filth and sleaze. We cannot afford to let it touch us. .Avoid evil talk. Do not take the name of the Lord in vain. . . .Choose your friends carefully. . . . While you should be friendly with all people, select with great care those whom you wish to have close to you. . . .


Bee True
Be true to your own convictions. You know what is right, and you know what is wrong. You know when you are doing the proper thing. You know when you are giving strength to the right cause. Be loyal. Be faithful. Be true.

Bee Humble
The meek and the humble are those who are teachable. They are willing to learn. They are willing to listen to the whisperings of the still, small voice for guidance in their lives. They place the wisdom of the Lord above their own wisdom.

Be Prayerful
You need His help, and you know that you need His help. You cannot do it alone. You will come to realize that and recognize that more and more as the years pass.

Here are the three new ones

Bee Positive

All of our feelings, beliefs and knowledge are based on our internal thoughts, both conscious and subconscious. We are in control, whether we know it or not.
We can be positive or negative, enthusiastic or dull, active or passive.


Bee Still

Be Still and know that I am God. He never said it would be easy He only said it would be worth it.
Peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment; And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes.

Bee Involved

Because I have been given much I to must give........
