Today I have been thinking about an old scripture mastery... I think it may still be a scripture mastery, but I'm not sure because I am no longer teaching seminary. This scripture may be the first scripture I ever memorized... way back when I was in seminary. "And it came to pass that I, Nephi,… Continue reading “I Will Go and Do…”
I've been thinking all day about the burden that comes with agency. I've been thinking about the price that comes with agency. Agency is a priceless, sacred, eternal gift. Agency is the power to think, to choose, and to act for ourselves. Agency presents endless possibilities and opportunities. Attached to these possibilities and opportunities is… Continue reading Blessing or Burden
One of the greatest rewards of surviving the sleepless nights of night feedings, the sleepless night of worry, the sleepless nights of “talkative” teens, and the sleepless nights of wondering how to pay for that mission, wedding or college is the joy of being a grandparent. I love making faces at little Freya and getting… Continue reading The Gift of Love
This past Christmas we gave my daughter a new cell phone. This phone can help her to keep in touch with her parents. This phone can give her knowledge when she has a desire to search. This phone can guide her when she needs direction. This phone can help her to stay connected to things… Continue reading The Gift of the Holy Ghost
Yesterday the dear prophet and president of my church passed from this life. For 50 year of my life, nearly all of it, this wise man has taught me much. As I looked through a collection of quotes from him this morning, I realized that many of my "quests," my mission in life, have been… Continue reading A Warrior is Wise
Today I gave a talk in Sacrament Meeting today. Here it is in all it's glory... To introduce my subject I decided to write a parable... the Parable of the Pen... and Shane the Sheep (no relation to Shawn the Sheep). As inspiration for this parable I look to John chapter 10 where Jesus makes… Continue reading The Gift of Repentance – The Parable of the Pen and Shane the Sheep
So much to think about today! Today I taught a lesson in Sunday School about symbolism. We had a great discussion. The kids were very engaged. I will talk about what we talked about in another blog on a different date. But I do want to address symbolism. I have been fascinated with symbolism for much of my adult life. Symbols… Continue reading Symbolism
I have a serious case of "stillness illness." It is my habit to live life in a constant state of business. Work must be done. Children must be chauffeured. Friends and family need our attention. Seriously. I live a life that is a whirlwind of activity. December is no exception. I spend my time rushing… Continue reading Stillness Illness
Yesterday was a good day as I attended a fund raiser for a sick child in our community and checked in on a sick friend. I am more and more aware of the suffering many people are experiencing. I just need to remember that even a sandwich can make a difference. Today is the Sabbath. … Continue reading #bethelight – Day 40
I have been pondering prayer and receiving answers to prayers this past week. I think of the things I prayer for... greater faith, love, holiness, wisdom, discernment, God's grace, courage, patience, the joy that only God can grant along with the basic daily needs my family and I stand in need of each day... and… Continue reading Expect the Unexpected
