We had a farewell presidency meeting last night since Melissa is leaving to Virginia with Dillards. I'm so excited for her. I'm glad I got to know her because I never would have if it wasn't for my calling. I'd love to be leaving somewhere but I know it's not happening for me anytime soon since Stevens-Henager College owns me until March 25, 2015. I also really don't want to leave my mother by herself BUT I could just fly in to see her from anywhere.
Our meetings finish laaate then I don't want to do anything or go anywhere. My uncle hasn't come over this week yet. I'm getting a very nice, very needed break!!! Maybe I shouldn't get too excited, that may end anytime although I am enjoying it very much.
I'm going to invite the world to a farewell party for Melissa at Huhot Mongolian Grill next Friday. I need to change the time because it's right before our ward game-night.
2 Nephi 6
6 And now, these are the words: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people; and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
7 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers; they shall bow down to thee with their faces towards the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord; for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
Isaiah is always such a beautiful writer. His writing is filled with specific images that make his words vivid. This is Jacob but he is quoting Isaiah.
For Peace at Home - Richard G. Scott
However, Satan is no match for the Savior. Satan’s fate is decided. He knows he has lost, but he wants to take as many with him as he can. He will try to ruin your goodness and abilities by exploiting your weaknesses. Stay on the Lord’s side, and you will win every time.
When we obey the commandments of the Lord and serve His children unselfishly, the natural consequence is power from God—power to do more than we can do by ourselves. Our insights, our talents, our abilities are expanded because we receive strength and power from the Lord. His power is a fundamental component to establishing a home filled with peace.
Zumba didn't happen this week. I've been sleep-deprived. I need to quit that because I want to get married AND I need to like my body when that happens. I always thought I'd have a long engagement but if I know someone well enough I don't need that AND I want kids right away. Anytime I get my period now I hate it BUT I'm also glad I can still have kids. I never thought I'd have to worry about that. My view of relationships and marriage is much healthier now. I want to have as many kids as possible as soon as possible. I've always felt I'm supposed to marry my friend AND as awful as I was feeling I forced myself to attend fhe and I DIDN'T feel like I was wasting my time, BUT he is NOT going to be here for 3 months!!! He only has a couple weeks before USU is out for the summer. I don't like that at all!!!
