brain dump

This is the Lord's church.

Mid winter in a town almost in antartica, but still in Argentina.He is happy<~that is important.

A family is blessed so much when missionary serves.

If people want to hear the gospel he is glad to share it, but will not listen, they will not hear.

A lot of strength from loving parents. Missionaries appreciate and cherish that.

Wife broke her foot and it is so signifiant because of trek.

A woman did not know the church is true, but knows that the teachings of Jesus make her feel better, and this Church teaches those things.

When a missionary bore his testimony, a listener thought it was the mission, but it was the truth.

Beyond knowing the church is true, it is utmost important to know of all of the people, God loves you.

Tithing just wouldn't work. So, missionary told him, to quit his job and the Lord would bless him with a better job.

Pray, and make a little covenant if you need it, to have what you lack.

"This meeting rings of sincereity and truth."

Faith leads to repentance.

A comment was that if you are married and have kids, you have it made.

We will not understand the atonement in this life, we cannot. It was said that likely we will still need it in the Celestial kingdom. It is like that comment that a point will ever be reached.

"It takes a lot of courage to repent."

Every day we need to be mindful that there are those present who do not feel worthy to be.

The Greek definition of Contrite is to grind to powder.

How is Godly sorrow different from regret? Best explination is a young missionary who was not able to go on his mission unless. Mosiah 4:10

It is important to let others repent.

"T'was I, but tis not I." From the play As You Like It by Wm. Shakespeare

If we do not keep the commandments then we have not repented.

We recieve a strength to help us. Sometimes the strength is in just doing it. Being strong enough to just do it.

Sins are serious when they effect others and need to be confessed to a proper priesthood authority. Then, they will no longer be remembered, and forgiven.

We are prone to wander from the God we love... "Come thou font of every blessing"

It is interesting that music "invites the spirit" and also is known to change the brain in a way to make it conduscive to things. So, we sing words to music.

Next Sunday, make sure all are invited, combined meeting.

Lemon theme.

Talking poorly of men is bad.

It is a blessing to be a part of his callings.

GA talk about their spouses as perfect, but she knows enough to know that they are not perfect people. ( probably, it is they are perfect for the other, but anyone can seem angelically perfect regardless of how ideal they are ) They exude the light of Christ.

Women often are allowed to do that, but often he is not even there and a woman must do it.

A woman, would ask if as a preisthood holder he would like to do it. Patience.

It is important to do little things to help the man do their duties... Ultimately, it is their duty and it is ours to be a help meet.

"Men never seem more attractive than when they are fufilling their God given roles."

All of the examples come from what we see a lot of, and the media shows what to do and even my dad used to comment on how we always see men depicted as idiots and they are not.

I remember a time Sister Benedict told about her husband knew so much and it was a suprise and she wondered how he had hidden all of that awesomeness. He seemed so wonderful.

Satan will never be a husband or father, so he works on men and women to rip apart what they could have.

The man always communicated when he would not be able to uphold his end of the bargin.

A good man because wife prays for him. In story man found out what wife was doing and it made the difference.

Are you doing everything you can do?

We get a glimpse if we look for it, Of how much fathers do to provide and protect them.
