My Random Blogging Therapy
I am so happy that's done!!!
I am eating crap because my box of Yoli is probably here now in which case I'll be eating very strickly now. They had wireless internet so I just watched some of a Korean drama I started. I'm so glad that's fixed. I didn't like picking up the sisters when that engine light was illuminated. I bought a philly cheese $6 burger from Carl's JR and got one free with a coupon. My car cost me $220.
I hadn't thought about cadbury mini-eggs in awhile but with my car fixed I went to buy candy at Smith's Marketplace which is right near A-1 automotive where I got my car fixed. I ran across the cadbury mini eggs and I thought I should get some before my Yoli begins. I don't want to go into work when I don't have to do that but I bet my Yoli is there now. I'm so excited to begin. It's either there now or it'll be there Tuesday or Wednesday. Things usually don't take very long from Salt Lake City. I hope that design book I rushed is there. Actually the student that had the book returned it so either way I'm fine.
This weekend is stake conference. This Thursday my new and hopefully FINAL aligners are going to be in. My house is messy but sometimes I just feel like doing nothing.
Mormon 6
22 O that ye had repented before this great destruction had come upon you. But behold, ye are gone, and the Father, yea, the Eternal Father of heaven, knoweth your state; and he doeth with you according to his justice and mercy.
A lot of death. Over 100,000 are specifically mentioned as "fallen" -this is horrible. The population of Tongans living in Tonga is a little over 100,000 or at least it was. Life is so precarious. I love that it is a holiday today. I'm not sure why I haven't received a text from my FHE group. They usually send me one by now.
Decisions for Eternity - Russell M. Nelson
Your yearnings to learn and change come from a divinely instilled striving for eternal progression.
Fasting helps your spirit to develop dominance over your physical appetites. Fasting also increases your access to heaven’s help, as it intensifies your prayers. Why the need for self-mastery? God implanted strong appetites within us for nourishment and love, vital for the human family to be perpetuated.When we master our appetites within the bounds of God’s laws, we can enjoy longer life, greater love, and consummate joy.
True change—permanent change—can come only through the healing, cleansing, and enabling power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
He allows you to access His power as you keep His commandments, eagerly, earnestly, and exactly. It is that simple and certain. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a gospel of change!
A strong human spirit with control over appetites of the flesh is master over emotions and passions and not a slave to them. That kind of freedom is as vital to the spirit as oxygen is to the body! Freedom from self-slavery is true liberation!
When we choose the loftier path toward liberty and eternal life, that path includes marriage.31 Latter-day Saints proclaim that “marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.”
Marriage between a man and a woman is fundamental to the Lord’s doctrine and crucial to God’s eternal plan. Marriage between a man and a woman is God’s pattern for a fulness of life on earth and in heaven. God’s marriage pattern cannot be abused, misunderstood, or misconstrued.
God’s marriage pattern protects the sacred power of procreation and the joy of true marital intimacy.
We know that Adam and Eve were married by God before they ever experienced the joy of uniting as husband and wife.
His way includes chastity before marriage and total fidelity within marriage.
We will account for decisions that we made about our bodies, our spiritual attributes, and how we honored God’s pattern for marriage and family. That we may choose wisely each day’s decisions for eternity is my earnest prayer in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.
That is my earnest prayer too.
