Jesus Christ, Light of the World
Revelations 21:23
And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
Book of Mormon/"Come Follow Me"
Review Alma 43-52 with our Come Follow Me group
April General Conference
"Come unto Christ - Living at Latter-day Saints"
Elder John A. McCune
Our ability to help others come unto Christ or return to Christ will largely be determined by the example we set through our own personal commitment to stay on the covenant path.
If our true desire is to rescue those we love, we ourselves must stay firmly with Christ by embracing His Church and the fulness of His gospel.
"We are all Enlisted" was the opening song for our home church meeting today. It makes one stop and think, what are we enlisted for? We are enlisted in the Lord's army and we do his work.
I love our little group that meets together on Sunday mornings. We had the Crane's and the Peeler's here today but the Goodman's were at home with family visitors. We missed them. We celebrated Pierce's birthday by having strawberry sour cream cake with whipped cream for our dessert after our lesson. We got a little rain this morning. It stopped just as our visitors were leaving.
Our lesson today covered Alma 43-52 "Stand Fast in the Faith of Christ." Captain Moroni is my hero for this week. What an amazing, well-rounded man. He was spiritual, practical, and prepared. We need more men like Moroni.
While I was getting the strawberry shortcake ready Brother Peeler came over to the kitchen and told me: "Sister Lambson, I don't think I've every enjoyed studying the Book of Mormon with anyone more than I have with you." I thanked him and told him I loved the Book of Mormon with all of my heart.
I got an e-card from my friend Karen today. I think she thinks that my birthday is on the 9th instead of the 19th. This e-card featured Donny Osmond singing, Happy Birthday Karen! It was so fun and I loved it so much I signed up to send e-cards to people I love.
This evening for our Lambson Study Group we discussed :"Trust in the Lord." Here are the talks Kim asked us to study:
1.) "Fear Not; I Am with Thee"
Jean A. Stevens
2. Has the Day of Miracles Ceased?
Elder Donald L. Hallstrom
3. It Is Better to Look Up
Carl B. Cook
4. Choose to Trust the Lord
Michalyn Steele
5. "Do We Trust Him? Hard is Good?"
Elder Stanley Ellis
Kim lead the discussion. Those attending:
Kim, Brian, Sheri, Stacy, Paul, Kacey, James and Karen. Jared had taken Molly home and didn't make it for most of our meeting. Oh yes, Charlie was there too and she was so good!
This evening James and I both wrote letters to our missionary, Elder Trezise. I told him to count his blessing instead of the days he has left to serve.
