"I clearly see my Savior in the center of my spiritual visual field. Could He one day restore my physical sight? Undoubtedly. [...] But even then, I should testify even more boldly of the greater way in which the works of God have been made manifest in my life, in the restoration of my spiritual vision.
I testify that He loves us with a depth and intensity for which there are no words." - Dr. Brooks

Jesus intended that we would see His very tangible act of physical healing as indicative of the less tangible power he has to forgive us of our sins.
It is this miraculous spiritual healing that we need most. - Dr. Brooks

"Do we view our trials as opportunities to see God’s hand in our lives – His power and mercy and love – or do we just sometimes feel afflicted and abandoned by God? Do we ask how the works of God are made manifest in us through our trials?" - Dr. Brooks

"Blindness is a theme throughout the scriptures. In the gospels, some of the most remarkable miracles performed by the Savior involve the restoration of sight to the blind. Why do we find these stories so compelling? [...] Today I want to discuss this story in more detail, suggesting some questions we might each ask ourselves about our own spiritual vision." - Dr. Jennifer Brooks

It was great to visit with the leaders helping establish the @BYU School of Medicine, an investment in the next generation of physicians and healthcare leaders who will serve Utah families and neighborhoods for decades to come.
Utah’s future will be built by people willing to serve, heal, and lead.

As a community centered on Christ, we are all responsible to improve how we love, include, and help heal each other.
I hope you will ask yourself: What am I doing, right now, to build a community of Christ at BYU?

Where the disciples saw scarcity in the multitude, Jesus saw abundance. When the disciples wanted to send the multitude away, Jesus drew them in. When the disciples saw what was lacking, Jesus saw an opportunity to nourish. As such, these miracles demonstrate what becomes possible in a community gathered around the Savior. - Elysa M. Dishman

"BYU's mission 'is to assist individuals in their quest for perfection and eternal life' — but this is not a quest that can be journeyed alone. We need this community to reach our destination. What brings us together—a love of our Savior and our identity as children of God—must be greater than the pressures that divide us."

I have found in seasons of waiting that studying the healing miracles of Christ brought me hope and increased my faith. I testify that miracles—large and small, hard-sought and unexpected—occur in our daily lives when we are attuned to recognize them. - Elysa M. Dishman

HeroRATs are trained to find survivors during earthquakes, identify landmines & even detect tuberculosis. Now, thanks to @BYUengineering students, these tiny search & rescuers are even more effective with wearable technology to help their human counterparts in rescue efforts.
