#bethelight – Day 333

This has been an interesting year.  I am nearly finished reporting on my efforts to spread kindness through out the world.  As I sat through General Conference yesterday, I was struck with the thought that God had impressed upon my heart and my mind to work on this kindness campaign right when he was instructing… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 333

Focusing on the Savoir This General Conference

So many things to think about... it's exhausting. It is super cool that someone creative makes these little pictures that will now go in my electronic picture frame, reminding me of the many lessons learned this General Conference.

#bethelight – Day 330 and 331

Yesterday and today were all about serving others.  I am learning that serving counts best when you have a good attitude and serve out of love.  That is real kindness.  I had better work on that more.

Putting My Christian Heart to Work Because I Have Been Given Much

I spent the weekend working... working when my heart really wanted to sit at my desk and listen to General Conference.  I worked on my set for many hours.  I worked on creating apple sauce at the request of my daughter.  I worked at creating a sugar free apple pie.  I worked at harvesting the… Continue reading Putting My Christian Heart to Work Because I Have Been Given Much

More Than Satisfied With “A Savior Is Born -a picture book

I came across the coolest book! Rocks Tell the Story of Christmas A Savior is Born, created by Patti Rokus (don't you love how even her name includes rocks?) has given me a new perspective on rocks.  https://www.amazon.com/Savior-Born-Rocks-Story-Christmas/dp/0310764963/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&qid=1533757608&sr=8-2&keywords=a+savior+is+born&linkCode=sl1&tag=rockstellstor-20&linkId=018660172ab1aecedcc921aed82af1c4&language=en_US She used rocks she picked up along the paths of her walks to create stunning pictures of… Continue reading More Than Satisfied With “A Savior Is Born -a picture book

Family Friday

Off We Sprint into October

Your weeks keep moving forward and by the looks of these family posts you may think that the only activity we ever do is work on the set for Mamma Mia.  Well...

This past week I answered a question for my missionary daughter about the living a higher law.

I gave it a ton of thought before I answered her.  I decided that living the higher law comes down to the two great commandments… Loving God and Loving your neighbor.  We are living the higher law when make these two commandments our standard to live by.Love-in-the-Bible

Living by the Spirit is a part of living the higher law.  If we put traditions and rules above seeking personal revelation, we may be missing the point of the higher law.  Sometimes people get hung up on “what is mentioned as a sin.”  It is simple.  Anything that separate us from God is a sin, whether it is mentioned in a conference talk as a commandment, a scripture, a pamphlet or some policy manual.  If doing the action leads us away from God, away from the…

#bethelight – Day 328 and 329

Yesterday I served others... even though I was tired.  Today I will look for more people to serve. Everyday I volunteer at my local high school.  Why do I volunteer?  Because I appreciate the hardworking teachers who I work with.  There is too much to do for just one person. Today is World Teacher Day.… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 328 and 329
