On this blog I share with family and friends my daily thoughts, doings, what interests me, and--at times--tributes to my eternal sweetheart, Walt, who graduated to heaven on 8-21-2020.Walt called himself "The last of the old-time country doctors."He delivered about 4,000 babies, among fixing broken hips, other surgeries, and even made house calls.As Janie said in his obituary:"He healed many hearts, heads, hands, and everything in-between."
In the 1950s you had to be 20 to serve a mission. This is Walt in August 1954, on the day he was set apart in Salt Lake City to be a missionary.

Family is Everything… Day 3 in hospital...
This is from our friend, Jon Groeman:Yesterday we held our semi-annual Stake Conference and one of the topics was related to our worship of Jesus Christ this upcoming Easter Season and the importance of HIS resurrection. We were encouraged to ponder the meaning this has for each of us and our families. We were asked the question about being worthy to live in the presence of God and his Son in their Celestial glory. The topic went to repentance and the discussion was about what formula involving repentance and time would make it possible for us to be worthy to be with them.
Galileo said "Mathmatics is the language of God."
It made me think of Einstein's theory of Relativity E=MC² This theory has stood the test of time and has been proven over and over again. So, I thought if we took the same equation and substituted the variables with Time and repentance and worthiness we would have something like this. Worthiness (W) equals Time (T) times Repentance (R) squared. W=TR² The more we repent per day, month, or year, the more worthy we become.
Section 19 of the Doctrine and Covenants talks about repentance a lot and how if we repent we can be saved from endless punishment and eternal misery. Today I look more positively at becoming more worthy of the merciful judgement of our Savior Jesus Christ.
I hope we can teach our Children and Grand Children the importance of repentance and seeking forgiveness for our sins. If so, we stand to receive a glorious place living in the presence of God.
