Many of us like to set goals to improve ourselves, lose weight, gain knowledge, get more pay. It is in our nature to improve ourselves and progress. After all, our Father in Heaven created this earth so we (His children) could come here to walk by faith and learn to discern and choose good overContinue reading “Improving, Growing, Changing!”

Prayer
Isn’t it amazing that when we pray we have the EAR of God? In the Bible Jesus taught us to pray, and He has asked us to pray always. Heavenly Father is always there for us, and our simple act of prayer puts us in the presence of His divine influence. Elder Jeffery R HollandContinue reading “Prayer”
Cosmic Con?
How is it that when men dress as women – like Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire – it is totally funny, but when women play boyish it just falls flat. In Thailand lady-boy shows were popular. We even had a lady-boy “perform” for us at a Nike sponsored party. He was an admin with aContinue reading “Cosmic Con?”
Restoration
In 1995, the Church of Jesus Christ published The Family Proclamation. In this document some very important truths were brought to light. One of these eternal principles is that gender is an eternal characteristic of our spirits. All human beings—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son orContinue reading “Restoration”
David
Most of us are blessed to start our lives with great promise – a healthy body, a curious mind, and years ahead of us. David was just such a youth. At a young age he had defeated lions and bears in defense of his family’s flocks. He was strong yet he had learned to putContinue reading “David”

The formation of the great seas, mountains, glaciers and rivers. Then, life was created, plant life and animal life. Finally, Adam and Eve were formed. As theContinue reading “His Plan; Our Choices”
To Believe
Nephi heard his father preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ and he wanted to know for himself. When the Lord answered his prayers life didn’t suddenly become easier for Nephi. He still had trials and hardship, but these things were easier to bear because he trusted and accepted Heavenly Father’s will for him. Nephi humblyContinue reading “To Believe”
Traditions!
Easter is one of the most important celebrations in the Christian world. As Joseph Smith once said – “The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the Apostles and Prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven; and all other things which pertain toContinue reading “Traditions!”
New Things
This fall we will be empty nesters for a decade. We’ve had time to do many of the things we longed to do as young parents. No, it’s not travel. I’m talking DATING!! Weekly dates are recommended for married couples, but as a busy family we were never able to fit them in. After theContinue reading “New Things”
Relief Society
Our Relief Society organization is celebrating its 184th birthday on March 17! Relief Society sisters have been a good influence for me my entire life. I’ve learned how to sew, to crochet, to teach English, to garden, to can tomatoes, teach my children the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to serve others, and to create aContinue reading “Relief Society”
