I'm going to SLC for the weekend, for my meeting really AND to buy my skates. I'm excited to get my skates AND to skate. I haven't been skating for 2 days and I don't like it. I love that Zumba is a total habit now. Mosiah 16 still testifies of Christ. While the horror of not accepting the Savior is described, I like reviewing the happy stuff more.

Mosiah 16

6 And now if Christ had not come into the world, speaking of things to come as though they had already come, there could have been no redemption.

7 And if Christ had not risen from the dead, or have broken the bands of death that the grave should have no victory, and that death should have no sting, there could have been no resurrection.

8 But there is a resurrection, therefore the grave hath no victory, and the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ.

9 He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death.

How can you not love the light!!!

I took Jen's keyboard back to her. I visited with her a little bit.

Jen showed me a lot of her noise/music makers. She has stuff from all over the world. She really will be great teaching kids about music. I can see them enjoying her personality. She is so sweet and kind. I didn't want to leave right away because of this. I appreciate how much she loves music. She just reminded me of my mission and the variety of people I met there.
My kitchen is a mess and I need to clean it before I hit up SLC.

Elder Bednar March 3, 2013 CES Broadcast That We Might Not Shrink (D & C 19:18)

NOT SHRINKING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SURVIVING-Neal A. Maxwell

Partaking of a bitter cup WITHOUT becoming bitter.

Elder Maxwell did not shrink. An example of devoted discipleship. Assurance, grace, dignity-not reserved for apostles or a few elect. Elder Bednar replaced vacancy left by Elder Maxwell.

We sometimes suffer temporal mortal adversity so we can become what we are meant to be eternally
Learning, enduring, BECOMING.
