To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Is it really true that there are members of our LDS faith, who are active and in good standing, who struggle with what prophets, both past and present, say? I just find that very difficult to understand. Because the prophets have always been God’s mouthpiece, isn’t it obvious they say what He wants His […]
From everyone I’ve talked to, the afternoon block of meetings on Sunday is highly undesirable. Being right smack in the middle of the day gives me no time to really do anything! We used to belong to a ward that had its own building, so we set the block of meetings, year after year, at […]
For me, conference was amazing. It hasn’t always been like this. There were times I would go to sleep during the talks, and worse, never read them in the Ensign. That story Pres. Uchtdorf told about the guy who asked his Mormon friend what the prophet had recently said, and the Mormon friend had no […]
Regret is a very depressing word. We all experience it. It comes from mistakes that we have made, but aren’t quite ready to own up to. Regret comes from not forgiving ourselves. It comes, and is relentless, as we attempt to change, but fall victim to our own impatience and feelings of unworthiness. Regret takes […]
Is preparing a 72-hour kit a woman’s job, or a man’s? It seems that most websites, on survival, are offered by men, but mostly I see women actually putting them together. Hmmm, just an interesting observation. Everyone and their uncle, grandmother, boss, and cousin will have an opinion on what to put in a […]
Living “joyfully” is a relative thing, don’t you think? And maybe its definition is unique to every person. Yet, I believe a person will find joy when they truly find Jesus Christ and accept His atoning gift. Benson: “The worst destruction I have witnessed was seen today … half-starved women, old men … digging at […]
It was another rousing and successful General Conference. My cup was filled and I was re-fortified to continue working toward salvation with the ever-loving aid of my Savior Jesus Christ. Question: Did anyone hear anything that may have alluded to “Preparedness” during this conference? Answer: I did. What is preparedness, but preparing us for […]
Sister Linda K. Burton spoke, at the General Women’s Meeting, on being spiritually prepared to receive temple blessings. Mentioning the story of the Nephites and how they were “prepared…in a manner which never had been known” (Alma 49:8), what does that mean for us? Have we been properly prepared to enter the temple, or […]
Last Sunday we had a lesson on how to keep feeling the spirit throughout the week. It’s an interesting question as we go about our busy lives, struggling just to keep up with a burning schedule. But isn’t that really what Satan wants us to think? If we don’t make time for the spirit what […]
Oh, no! Another post on Family History work! We Mormons have so much to do, how are we expected to do it all! I’ve been reading through the recent conference talks. By the way, I was complaining about how I wanted to read each talk, but never seemed to have time to do it. But […]
