Copy info about bees and honey

I just saw this article – I have no source.

I hope these facts are true.

I’ll have to do more research,

but I wanted to save the info.

I know there are symbols of the

Honey Bee in the Salt Lake Temple.

Bees and Honey

I did not know this. If you have honey in tea or to sweeten

Anything liquid, do not stir with a metal spoon.

Did you know that honey contains live enzymes?

Did you know that in contact with a metal spoon, these enzymes die?

The best way to eat honey is with a wooden spoon; if you can't find

one, use a plastic spoon.

Did you know that one of the world's first coins had a bee symbol?

Did you know that honey contains a substance that helps the brain work better?

Did you know that honey is one of the few foods on earth that alone can sustain human life?

Did you know that bees saved people from starvation in Africa?

That a spoonful of honey is enough to keep a man alive for 24 hours?

Did you know that propolis produced by bees is one of the most powerful natural antibiotics?

Did you know that honey has no expiry date?

Did you know that the bodies of the world's greatest emperors were buried in gold coffins,

then covered in honey to prevent putrefaction?

Did you know that the term "Honeymoon" (honeymoon) comes from the fact that the

bride and groom consumed honey for fertility after their marriage?

Did you know that a bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1000 flowers and produces

less than a teaspoon of honey, but for her it is the work of a lifetime.

Thank you precious bees!

   At the end of this May 12th,**

I pray you have had a
restful , peaceful, and spiritual
Sabbath Day...
I share these truths as my testimony to you...

Heavenly Father lives and knows us each by name. He loves us and wants us to return to Him and Heavenly Mother when we leave this mortal existence.
He loves us just
as we are at this very moment.
He knows what our potential is.
* * *
Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all.
* * *
I am thankful for the guidance of the Holy Ghost as the third member of the Godhead.
Walt said to me once: "I look forward to thanking the Holy Ghost in person when I get to Heaven. I don't think we give Him enough credit for all He does."

* * * * *
Joseph Smith was foreordained to be the Prophet of the Restoration. He is the Restorer of all things.
* * *
President Russell M. Nelson is the Living Prophet today for all the world.
* * *
The Bible is "the Word of God as far as it is translated correctly" and is a Testament of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.
* * *
The Book of Mormon is the Word of God and is Another Testament of Jesus Christ. It is the most correct book of any book on earth.
* * *
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the True Church on the earth today. Because of the restored Temple Ordinances families can be sealed for eternity.

* * *
Of these truths I testify in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.
