Brain dump

Missionary served in Tacoma, told stories and how they all taught the plan of salvation and that is what people are "hungry" for.

Missionary mentioned that thpugh all things taught are true the plan of salvation is easiest because of how true it is and it will surely be well recieved.

Instead of re reading his talk to prepare, the high councilman listened to music and the spoken word and it amazes me how much is taught "eloquently in verse".

D & C 93 answers how exercising faith can bring the answer of all things.

"Unto the heart"...then we must bring that into the heart. It is hard to do, and countless people (with no respect of persons) have failed to embrace with faith that which is true.

When struggles we some sotuations where we can only turn to our God. We will find the evidence that our father loves us.

SUNDAY SCHOOL -

Before anything is built is must be planned. Like a garden, so earth must be planned out.

It is important to have a testimony of the creation, then the science will not trip you up.

God loved Saturn so much he put a ring on it.

We need that much space regarding the universe expanding, and our individual potentials.

Time is only identified in mortality.

Don't let what we don't let what we don't know upset what we do know.

We are here to walk by faith, so for now we cannot have factual knowledge of things.

We are trying to be like our father in Heaven, cause we saw what he had and wanted to get that.

(Going to Ghana MTC)

We have an innate desire to create something that did not exist prior.

Ira got baptized in Nauvoo, he was young. When going west his wife and half brother passed away on the same day.  Became stk. Pres in Filmore (was originally to be the capitol of Utah)

It is interesting how her pioneer heritage is noting how generation by generation they buildt a family of faith that would be able to reach the point where we are today...hence the did as much for their family as any of the Utah saints did for the church.

"Faith, Hope, Work, and Dream, do you best" that is the pioneer spirit.

GEORGE WASHINGTON was a gift of God. In the right place at the right time. This is the same foundation taught by my philosophy professor regarding political leaders. America needed to be prepared.

The lord knows exactly where we need to be to handle the sacrifuce required.

We need to be seeking out how to help other pioneers.

Story of Sister who thought she was the pioneer and first of her family, but then she discovered that her mom had lost touch with a brother as a lucky find lead her to discover that he had come to Americas and become a latter-day saint.
