Pizza

Posted by 2DI4 at 10:29 PM

I bought a slice of pizza at Maverick before I went to buy a temple skirt at Deseret Book and my almonds at Smith's. That was hours ago and I still feel stuffed and gross. The pizza didn't taste that great. It feels yucky. I know my blood sugar is raised and I did it on purpose because I kept thinking about it last night but I didn't want to buy an entire pizza and it was the only place I could think of that just sells slices. Sam's club does but I never renewed my card.

It's good for me to do this once in awhile because it's just not worth it. I feel so much better when I don't eat that crap. I feel weighed down and gross. Yoli's going to be easy to incorporate because in addition to the supplements I'm already eating the way I should. Wow, that's a drastic difference.

I saw Tim, an academic advisor when I first started working at Stevens-Henager College at Smith's. He was a good worker. He quit to do his master degree in German and he was teaching at USU but he is actively looking for something right now because they are letting a German PhD student teach instead of him. He asked me if I know of anything out there for him. I hope he's alright. He's married with no children. German isn't exactly the most marketable field. He served his mission in Germany.

Job-hunting sucks. I hate it. It was great to interview brokers instead of the other way around. I love that. Of course I don't think Robert really wants to work with me so I am just going to make arrangements with Andrea instead.While I'm excited to begin it is tiring just thinking about beginning because I know the learning curve is huge and I really hate that I have to shell out so much money to even begin.

Jacob 7

8 But behold, the Lord God poured in his Spirit into my soul, insomuch that I did confound him in all his words.
23 And it came to pass that peace and the love of God was restored again among the people; and they searched the scriptures, and hearkened no more to the words of this wicked man.
Come, Join With Us - Dieter F. Uctdorf

Believing in God is commendable, but most people want to do more than listen to inspirational sermons or dream of their mansions above.4 They want to put their faith into practice. They want to roll up their sleeves and become engaged in this great cause.
A third reason why people join the Church is because walking the path of discipleship leads to precious blessings.
We openly acknowledge that in nearly 200 years of Church history—along with an uninterrupted line of inspired, honorable, and divine events—there have been some things said and done that could cause people to question.
And, to be perfectly frank, there have been times when members or leaders in the Church have simply made mistakes. There may have been things said or done that were not in harmony with our values, principles, or doctrine.
I suppose the Church would be perfect only if it were run by perfect beings. God is perfect, and His doctrine is pure. But He works through us—His imperfect children—and imperfect people make mistakes.
please, first doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith.8 We must never allow doubt to hold us prisoner and keep us from the divine love, peace, and gifts that come through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
The diversity of persons and peoples all around the globe is a strength of this Church.

If you define hypocrite as someone who fails to live up perfectly to what he or she believes, then we are all hypocrites. None of us is quite as Christlike as we know we should be. But we earnestly desire to overcome our faults and the tendency to sin. With our heart and soul we yearn to become better with the help of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
If these are your desires, then regardless of your circumstances, your personal history, or the strength of your testimony, there is room for you in this Church. Come, join with us!
I earnestly pray that your own search for truth will impress upon your heart the desire to come and join with us. In the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.
