OH MY.......big sigh

I've had a pretty amazing day. So why the big sigh ??? I am sitting in my quiet space/craft room and can see so many things that I could be doing.....like way too many things....cards, sewing, TV, books...but fortunately I realized that in my haste to get to church today, I neglected my Book of Mormon. Now I just have to state hear that this is an amazing piece of writing. If you haven't read it...JUST DO IT

I like to make notes as I read and with the one chapter that I read tonight I think that I wrote about almost every verse. I wrote at the end....WOW WHAT A CHAPTER. One of my favorite principles from this reading came at the end where the writer testified that a man MUST be obedient to the commandments of God. It wasn't 'should try'...it was MUST. Pretty strong I thought....but hey if you're reading this I want you to know that I believe this to be true. I also believe wholeheartedly that the secret ( well not really a secret) to pure joy in this life is OBEDIENCE to God. I've seen way too many people learn this and then choose otherwise...and well...big sigh...they give away so much true joy. 

So my amazing day....hey it's Sunday....of course it's amazing. Church was wonderful. I arrived to find that a secret someone had my Sunday school class all set up.THANK YOU !!!!! Our Sacrament talks were all inspiring about Faith...thanks speakers ( Susan, Jessica and Tanner). Sunday school was pretty good....thanks to all the contributors....I do enjoy teaching this class even if it stresses me every week. Relief Society ( I love being there) was perfect !!! Again a fabulous lesson taught by my sweet friend Monica. She teaches with such a strong spirit in her lessons.

The afternoon was restful, Bill cooked a nice dinner and now I'm having some 'me' time.

The past week has been busy but good. The Temple was incredible as always....I do love serving there!!!!!!!!!

We had a card making get together last night with Lesley teaching us and the projects and treats were
grand. I enjoy the friendships of my card making friends. Good to have time together. It does make me miss my Kathy even more...so glad that she joined us via facetime !!! I MISS MY DAUGHTER KATHY!!!!!!!!
