Relief Society: Something Extraordinary

I love this video. I love being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I love being a member of the Relief Society. It is a blessing in my life and I am so thankful for the great women in my life who have been great examples to me. My mother is my number one hero. She has been an example to me all my life. She and my father taught me the gospel and took me to church. She helped my to love relief society and all that it offers us as sisters.
I love you mom! You are special and I am so thankful and grateful for you! I have other women in my life also that have been great examples to me. These women are friends in my ward, young and old who have taught me much by their examples and service. My two sisters are also two lovely women that I look up to and love so very much.

I truly love visiting teaching. It is such a blessing in my life too! I have a wonderful companion and she has been a great example to me all while I have lived in this ward and now we get to be V.T. companions. I am still learning from this great lady. The sisters we visit are also special and I love them and the things that I learn from them.

I love this quote from Pres. Joseph F. Smith, "Relief Society has not only to deal with the necessities of the poor, the sick and the needy, but a part of it's duty and, the larger part, too, is to look after the spiritual welfare and salvation of the mothers and daughters fo Zion; to see that none is neglected, but that all are guarded against misfortune, calamity, the powers of darkness, and the evils that threaten them in the world."

Elder Ballard also said, "Every sister in this Church who has made covenants with the Lord has a divine mandate to help save souls, to lead the women of the world, to strengthen the homes of Zion, and to build the kingdom of God."

I hope that I can fully fulfill my duties as a wife, mother, sister, teacher, friend and especially a daughter of God and keep the covenants that I have made. Thanks to a loving Heavenly Father who has blessed the women of the church with the opportunity to serve and up-lift others. May we all work towards this end. Be the best you can be!

They Gave Up Their Christmas

Lyndon sent this video to me by email and I loved it so much that I had to post it on my blog. It brought a few tears to my eyes. It is touching the service that so many members of the church give willing everyday in some small way to bless the lives of others. I hope it touches each of you as much as it touched me. It makes me want to be just a little better than I am and to do better and serve better everyday! Have a good one everybody.

Oquirrh Mountain Temple with Herriman Fire in Background.

A friend posted this picture and this is what she had to say about the picture. "When I first saw this happening I thought, Wow!, the temple is in danger. The more I watched the fire

my thoughts changed. The fire represents the world in it's current state and the temple represents the church." As I look at this picture it is truly amazing and I have to agree with her.

I am so grateful for the temple and the blessing that it is in my life. I am so grateful for the sacred ordinances performed there and how they strengthen me and give me the desire to be better and to strive to live in the world, but not of the world. I hope that my light will be a beacon to the world as the temple in this picture. I hope that I can be an example of the believers and always strive to have the spirit in my home and in my life.
