General Conference
"The Father"
Brian K. Ashton
"There is much we do not understand about becoming like the Father. But I can testify with certainty that striving to become like the Father is worth every sacrifice. The sacrifices we make here in mortality, no matter how great, are simply incomparable to the immeasurable joy, happiness, and love we will fell in God' presence. If you are struggling to believe it is worth the sacrifices you are asked to make, the Savior calls to you, saying, 'Ye have not as yet understood how great blessings the Father hath ... prepared for you; ... ye cannot bear all things now; nevertheless, be of good cheer, for I will lead you along."
Here is the letter that Ben sent to his mom this week:
I think Ben is a natural born speaker and preacher.
I ordered several books today and was able to get my tramadoll prescription refilled.
A sister in our ward had to go in for emergency surgery. Her name is Sister Campbell and she had cancer surgery a couple of weeks ago. We had a sister willing to pick her up from the hospital but her husband was able to do it. It's always nice to know that people are willing to help if needed.
James made lots of phone calls today to schedule work for the next phase of the Chacon job. He made the comment to me: "Let's do something fun," but we got so busy we never did. Hopefully sometime this week we can go to Buckelieu Springs and see the water falls. We did read from our book today and watched "Campfire Kiss" on the Hallmark channel.
I inventoried, sourced and set buying alerts in our book business besides buying several books. Things are beginning to happen and we finally feel like we know what we are doing. We have sold over 30 books but that's just the beginning.
A look of pure joy on that face
This sweet family from our ward was recently
sealed in the temple. Sister Nichols is the sister
who made the delicious chicken salad for our
Relief Society birthday party.
An explanation of Spring:
These pictures were taken in Carefree just
north of Scottsdale.
