COMPLETLY DONE!

Well as of last night at 11:55 pm I finished my requirements

to get my YW recognition award. I just did the leader requirements

but it feels great to have accomplished it again. I finished the last

knowledge, integrity and virtue goals that I needed to do. I am

always amazed at how much they still have relevance to my life.

I know that today I was granted an extra amount of patience

because of the work that I put in to finish last night. Now I will

work towards getting my honor bee.

Virtue.... DONE!

So last night I finished reading the Book Of Mormon. I can't

believe it's taken me so long to read it. I forget how awesome

the last few books are. I know that I have started reading

it a million times but I get lost somewhere in Alma. I feels

so great to finish it again. I have such a testimony of

the scriptures. Every time I read it I am reassured of the

truthfulness of the gospel.

Almost there!

I am less than 10 pages from the end of the BOM. I think that I have

started reading the Book Of Mormon a lot of times but I have given up

so reading through Ether and Moroni has been great. I have forgotten so

much about the Jaredites. They go from the Brother of Jared who had

so much faith that Heavenly Father couldn't hide himself from him

to constant war.... One brother fighting another Brother or father. It's

just ridiculous. Also we have all the 'secret combinations'. The problem

is that I know that we have all of these same issues today it's just more

excepted. I've decided that when I'm done reading this time (hopefully

I can finish today) that I'm going to read through the BOM chronologically.

That's a way that I've never read it before.

Virtue Project Continued

Well I'm plugging along on my virtue project. I am now in

Mormon. It's so sad to me. You know the people of Nephi

had peace in the land for 200 years after Christ left....

And 160 year after that they have fallen so far away that

Heavenly Father has forbidden Mormon from leading

them. It's hard to read all this cause it seems like such a

short time (10 pages) to go from COMPLETE PEACE to

war and hate from everyone. I guess there is just a lot to

learn about being humble. And remembering the teachings

of our prophets.

Virtue Project Continued

Last night I was reading the BOM. I was really touched

by the part during Christs visit when he blesses the children.

I was swept in in the thought of Christ telling me to bring forth

my little ones. And then having then surrounded by a multitude

of Angels. I cannot even begin to fathom how amazing that

would have been. But Also I know that my little angels have

been blessed by Christ and my Heavenly Father. Amazing.
