Christ is my foundation

-
When I read this today it brought such peace.  I will not allow the world winds of darkness drag me down. So grateful for my foundation. Amazing how this speaks of today in our society and what is going on. As well as the things we are dealing with personally.  I reflected how Christ  himself was accused  for things he didn't do. Those who were angry at his actions twisted the truth to benefit their desire to be rid of the savior. Yet the savior continued to do what was right. He never was angry or prideful. When they came to take him and Peter cut off the soldier's ear. Christ healed him. When he was accused wrongfully and the people sided with a murder vs Christ, when he was whipped horribly,  humiliated, abuse and then nailed to the cross and given vinegar instead of water... He still asked the lord to forgive them ... "for they know not what they do". 💞 I understand his purpose and reason in his willingness to forgive dispite all the things they said and did .. and ultimately took his life.

Spiritual Impressions and ways to Grow

Hey everyone!!😁 I am super excited to do this with you guys. Living so far away from everyone always makes me feel as if I miss out on so many opportunities for amazing discussions about the one thing I truly love which is our faith. So many times I have sat with Adonis's family talking about church or something we learned or questions that are asked that have turned into wonderful and sometimes deep discussions and wished I could do that with all of you. The things I started thinking about with texting is time differences. I thought what if I had a profound thought or question come to me and it is 11pm here but midnight in Utah and everyone is asleep or 2 am in Ohio. I don't want to wake anyone up and I don't want to lose that spirit in thought or question I had by holding back to send because I don't want to wake anyone up. I thought about doing a FB page but here is a few problems with that. Dad does not have a page, my husband does not have one and Ma...

Creation

I had a friend share this me and I loved it..  The Gift of Creation By Anonymous All things are created in the Spirit first. Moses 3:5. We came to earth endowed with spiritual gifts. One of them is the gift to create. I like to think that we all were eagerly watching as Jesus and Michael created this world and everything in it. We learned how organizing matter is essential in creating. WE are blessed every day to use our gift of creating. We create with Him what kind of day we will have. We create a home that is filled with the Spirit. We create beauty with our talents. Some sing, some write, some create beauty from the earth, the list of what can be created is infinite. Most of us have created the most important thing of all- with the Lord we created children from our own bodies. And each one of us was created with individual characteristics.  I know that I am blessed to create with Them every day. Look at your life – What are you creating with God? ...

What does it mean to "Trust in the Lord"?

What does it mean to “Trust in the Lord” or to “Have Faith in the Lord?” It seems from my personal experience and study, that DOUBT and FEAR are some of the main eroding factors and poisons to our Faith. Consider the two scriptural accounts when the Lord told His New Testament disciples, “O, ye of little faith.”  In one account He used this statement when He was asleep on the boat during the storm (can you imagine how exhausted, yet at complete peace the Savior must have been?) and His disciples came to Him in a panic and fear of sinking.  They pleaded for Him to save them, to which He arose, calmed the sea, and then referred to them as “ye of little faith.”  The second account was when Peter, in great faith, went walking on the water towards the Lord, but then began to look around and sink.  Crying out to the Lord to save Him, the Savior did so, and then said, “thou of little faith.” I think the disciples were actually very faithful in both of these circumstances....
