I was in sacrament meeting, listening to the speakers, and it dawned on me how much I take the Gospel for granted. I think it is so hard to stay focused sometimes (especially when your 2 year-old is telling the old lady behind you who is sleeping, "Hey, wake up!").
The Gospel is such a blessing. I am grateful to be here at a time when I know the Truth has been restored. What the Spirit was telling me today is that I need to remember when I was baptized I took upon me Christ's name. That meaning, I am to live as He would and become like Him. My will needs to be "swallowed up" in His will.
The speakers today did such a good job. They spoke on Fellowship and Service. Truly,treating others the way our Savior would if he were here. In RS we talked how
a lot of times we think we are doing okay, only to find later that we have let our priorities slip. I know I am so guilty of this. I
won't able to hear the rest because Ryan had a talk in Primary(Grace had one in Jr. Primary, my life story is preparing talks for church). I think I took away what the Lord wanted me to, though.
I am adding to my list of things to become "pure," as Sister Dew would say. It's getting to be quite lengthy. That's a good thing.

I loved the talks in Sacrament meeting yesterday too. Thank you for you insights and testimony.
I'm surprised that with so many kids you can listen in Sac. Mtg...I barely can with two! Glad it helped you out!
Larae,
I want to see your "pure" list. Those are great thoughts, thank you for sharing them. Ben gave me a set of CDs by John Lund called Daughters of Eve. I was listening to the first one and like how it reminded us to be a higher better self. I think we should recommitt every day to be our best selves.
