The Gospel

I love the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Today, we had the rededication of the St George Temple. It was so inspiring and I strongly felt the spirit. I felt such a spirit of appreciation for those early Saints....man, they had such hardships. And, yet, they BUILT A TEMPLE. It too them six years, but while they were building their homes and sturctures, tehy built a temple. I can't wait to go in and do sealings on Friday. Elder Holland was the general authority who gave the dedicatory prayer. He said this was his favorite assignment in his 34 years of gospel trips. I loved doing the Hallelujah SHOUT! And, singing, The Spirit of God.

A New Grandchild

 Jaxon Fisher was born this morning....it's so exciting.  He's still in the NICU, but will be out soon, I'm sure.  Morgan is also needing some care...she had a C-Section.  But, I feel so very grateful.

Moments after the birth...well, at least I think it is after the birth!

The Scriptures

While learning about the early saints in the New Testament, it occurs to me that each person did not have access to the written word. They couldn't really learn or be inspired on their own time.  I'm so grateful for the blessing of my own scriptures so readily available.

What a great blessing..and I am grateful!

It's the Day Before Thanksgiving...

 and here are three specific things I am grateful for:

Kristi D - how did I get such an incredible daughter?

Jordan - who flew out to be here with us a few days before Thanksgiving; It's just a JOY to be with him.

Our living situation....we have a plethora of food (that is one of my worst sins - I'm very wasteful.!)

Oh, Heavenly Father, I am grateful!

So Many Things

 Man, I am delinquent in keeping up with this blog.

And, I have so much to be thankful for.

I have had stomach aches for so long, but as of this morning, I am feeling better.

And, I am thankful.

My beautiful, Wonderful MOTHER!

 

My Life

This morning in a parking lot, I felt JOY.

Joy for life, 

Joy for my situation.

JOY for being alive in this incredibly beautiful world.
