Treading Water: Utah

Thursday, June 25, 2009

Once again, I messed up on the order of the photos...top photo is Wednesday morning before we dropped Andrew off at the MTC.

Middle photo is Tuesday afternoon after Andrew, Eric, Ryan, Glen, and I saw the Church's movie Joseph Smith, The Prophet of the Restoration.

Bottom photo is Tuesday morning after Teresa, Andrew, Glen and I attended a session at the Salt Lake Temple.

One down, three, possibly four, to go?! Did you do the Toyota jump as you left him at the MTC? Jeremiah's mom was more than happy to turn him over to the Lord and that's how she expressed it! He'll be home before you know it!

lol. No, Heidi, I didn't do the Toyota jump. He's where he's supposed to be, so I'm happy...but a bit sad, too. No tears from me, either, and certainly not from him. He was chomping at the bit to go.

“Things of the Spirit need not – indeed should not – require our uninterrupted time and attention. Ordinary work-a-day things occupy most of our attention. And that is as it should be. We are mortal beings living in this physical world. Spiritual things are like leavening. By measure they may be very small, but by influence they affect all that we do.” --Pres. Boyd K. Packer
“The Lord isn’t asking us to load up a handcart; He’s asking us to fortify our faith. He isn’t asking us to walk across a continent; He’s asking us to walk across the street to visit our neighbor. He isn’t asking us to give all of our worldly possessions to build a temple; He’s asking us to … attend regularly the temples already built. He isn’t asking us to die a martyr’s death; He’s asking us to live a disciple’s life.”
