Our Relief Society focus for February was emotional health. To stick with the theme we had a chicken soup for the soul night. We had yummy soup made by Fawn Olsen & Narie Young and rolls made by Janet Youngberg!
Following our soup and rolls we were privileged to hear from President Lamm. Here is a brief outline (thanks to Kathie Bergquist) of what he spoke about and a few of the great quotes/sayings he mentioned.
Moses 1 Moses is taken up high in the mountain, talks with the Lord face to face.“Thou art my son”/shows him the workmanship of His hand
This was all done for you!
After this experience, Moses was left alone, pondering, realizes I am nothing without Jesus Christ.
Adversary shows up-“Moses, son of man! (lie-should be God)
Moses says-“Get thee behind me” but Satan hangs around
When Moses says “In the name of Jesus Christ-depart” Satan leaves.
The Lord says for mine own purpose, I made these things and it remaineth with me-like “I know what I’m doing and you don’t need to know why."
There is no end to my works and word.
Moses 1:39 This is my work and my glory to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
Each day on “to do” list of Heavenly Father-what’s on the top of the list? YOU!
Took trip to Germany-saw lots of nice cars: Mer Benz for 400,000-plus extras/Lambroginni/Ferrari What price would he pay for you.
Stop seeking out the storms and enjoy the sunlight-Pres Hinckley
