My Savior

I love the Savior! The best moments in my life revolve around Him. Feeling the Spirit quietly tell me as a teen that everything would be okay, regardless of my parents getting divorced. While a young adult I cried and cried. I couldn't stop! And then as I called upon my Savior... great peace. I knew breaking off an engagement was absolutely the right thing to do. As a missionary I saw the power of His gospel when tears of love and joy streamed down the faces of 15, once angry, tourist. Just weeks ago His priesthood filled my soul with hands on my head and blessings of comfort spoken. I love my Savior!



I have waited almost a year to find just the right frame and matting for my tribute to the Lord. I found it... I love it! There is no mistaking who the center of our home is now, and what a reminder to our children! Immediately Kennedy and MacKenzie identified... "JESUS"! My greatest hope is to raise my children to know and love the Lord. At times I wonder at the great spirits they once were. My favorite quote from modern day prophets is, "our children are not yet ours". We must earn the right to an eternal family by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel. Hmmm... good luck to all parents in earning the right to be parents forever!
