Results Come From Doing!

When our wagon gets stuck in the mud, God is much more likely to assist the man who gets out to push than the man who merely raises his voice in prayer—no matter how eloquent the oration.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “Two Principles for Any Economy,” Ensign, Nov. 2009, 56-57

What Is First In Our Lives?

• When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives. Our love of the Lord will govern the claims for our affection, the demands on our time, the interests we pursue, and the order of our priorities. …

• May God bless us to put [him] first and, as a result, reap peace in this life and eternal life with a fulness of joy in the life to come.

What Happens When You Take Me To The Movies Late At Night

I throw caution into the wind and act like a ridiculous but adorable teenager...

and then I pose like a nice little girl for the camera (apparently Bena and S. Lloyd have a thing for the boy behind us...hence the photo shoot). :)

A Little Walk In Foothill Park

The BE and I have found a new pass time while we chat up a storm...and it is not only healthy for us, in the backyard of PA, but it is also very beautiful to behold.

This Is Sometimes How I Feel About Botox Injections

Then again, I don't get botox in my face (shocker I know, but all this beauty is natural folks) so my anxiety level is much lower than this lady's. Thank goodness for me, the doctor and MPR's hand. :)

High priest of good things to come

My declaration is that this is precisely what the gospel of Jesus Christ offers us, especially in times of need. There is help. There is happiness. There really is light at the end of the tunnel. It is the Light of the World, the Bright and Morning Star, the “light that is endless, that can never be darkened.” 3 It is the very Son of God Himself. In loving praise far beyond Romeo’s reach, we say, “What light through yonder window breaks?” It is the return of hope, and Jesus is the Sun. 4 To any who may be struggling to see that light and find that hope, I say: Hold on. Keep trying. God loves you. Things will improve. Christ comes to you in His “more excellent ministry” with a future of “better promises.” He is your “high priest of good things to come.”

Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven; but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come.
