Job Security
PoeticIntensity
I've been pondering on how I am to write about this without seeming haughty or prideful, because quite honestly, I feel nothing more than blessed beyond words.
When I was offered this job, it just felt right. Six months previous to my being offered this job, I was offered another job in SLC which seemed right in every aspect but the fact th...

Gen. Conf. - Neighbor - Burton

Reading this talk from Bish H. David Burton really made me feel good. It brought the Spirit of God into my little work office and made me realize how much good there is to be done in the world.
I personally had no idea the church was doing so much to help so many people. I knew of some major disasters in which the church lent a huge h...

Gen. Conf. - Heed The Prophet - Cook

I just finished reading the first talk given during the Priesthood Session of conference.
Elder Cook talks of the need to give heed to the words of our prophets.
I think of the things in my life I'm doing wrong, and I feel the truth in his words. I need to heed the prophet's counsel more earnestly in many areas of my life.
I think of th...

1st Nephi : 18 - Nephi's Faith

I don't think that ever you will find any words of righteousness associated with Laman and Lemuel, not once, but twice, within 4 verses more than in this chapter alone.
Not sure why that stood out at me this time, but once in verse 1 and again in verse 4, Nephi said that Laman and Lemuel were on good behavior. I thought I'd take time to suc...

Old Fisherman's Grotto

We just got back from a wonderful dinner at The Old Fisherman's Grotto on Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey California.
The halibut was quite wonderful, but not nearly as good as the side-dish of clam chowder I got. It really was fantastic.
If you're ever in Monterey, CA, you simply have to get a bowl of that chowder. It's quite amazing....

D&C 58 1-4 is a great reference if you're looking for some good stuff on trials. We talked a lot about Zion's Camp, and the general tendency the early saints had toward generati...
