Thank you to my Dad and Mom
for raising me in Idaho...

I was raised in Idaho, where flip flops were called thongs, we don't have cray fish in creeks, we have "craw dads" in the "crick", "taters" are mandatory, chicken is fried, biscuits come with gravy, sparkling grape juice is the house wine, we don’t have 'soda’ we have pop, we stand for the National Anthem, and you would NEVER disrespect your elders or you’d be slapped into next week. Post if you were raised in Idaho!

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.

*** *** ***

Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all. 

“An omnicompetent God leaves all mortals free to choose, but how grateful we should be that God chose long, long ago to rescue and to resurrect all His children through the Atonement of His Son. Nevertheless, some reject and many are indifferent to these and other divine beckonings, mostly because they are too caught up in the cares of the world. They are strangers to the Savior, who is far from the thoughts and intents of their hearts.”

Neal A Maxwell

How Choice a Seer!

 Monday I caught UP
on my blog.

Prophets in the Book of Mormon often looked to heroes in the Hebrew Bible to inspire courage and learn important gospel principles. Moses raising up the brass serpent in the wilderness, originally found in the book of Numbers, is one of them. It is mentioned three different times in the Book of Mormon (1 Nephi 17, Alma 33, and Helaman 😎, teaching us that not only was it important for the Israelites who experienced it, the account carries value when we hear it thousands of years later.

How does turning to the scriptures give you perspective in your modern life?
