Braindump

I felt the spirit so strongly at seminary that I did not want to leave, but wanted that feeling to stay for the rest of my LIFE.

What stuff goes on in the high school stays there, but the seminary building is set apart as a sacred building.

Places are amazing because it is a place where our questions are answers.

Questions lead to relevations.

Tithing is a covenant of Faith more than an act of obedience, alone.

I may not be my brother's keeper, but I am my brother's Brother.

To some it is harder and is more of a seeming worldly financial thing, but it is more a matter of faith.

Tithing is more a spiritual thing than a temporal thing.

When you are released you are left  wondering what next?

God loves all of us, even those who  never even went to the temple.

There is a party going in the world...spacious building.

Is this your business or the Lord's. Is something to ask yourself if tempted to judge.

East horizon is beautiful as sun rises, one day the Son of God will break through that beauty.

Persue service and happiness will follow.

Cleaning up messes that we never made is what sacrifice is, like Jesus Christ.

All people feel better by dealing with our sorrows by seeving others.

God's work is done through others. So, when you feel a prompting to do good.

What can we do to be prepared to help others?

We need to learn to recognize hiw the spirit works.

Don't try to lock out "inopportune" notion.

When you help others you end up being helped yourself. So, you forget yourself that is how you find yourself.

The gospel is service, remember the Savior healed on sunday, so we can break law to keep it..  go out and rescued saints that was on the Sabath.

The priesthood is not the men, they are the holders not the power. But so often it has become synonymous with the men.

Keys, offices, power, etc. They are used interchangably.

God is not expiramenting with how this all works and will be used, he knows and will be using it has such. When people try to criticize how things are done, they need to keep that in mind.

"Just answer in your heart."

We are blessed to have "the big picture".

Women are not required to hold the priesthood to have a calling or enter the temple...

Women may do things in a religious organization that are unparalleled. There is almost nothing they can do, about equal leadership and expounding.

Early culture was highly patriarchal. (My p blessing comments on how important it was that the world be prepared so that I could come live in a world where women were given all of these abilities).

Keys, authority, power. Explained.

So, keys were used to organize RS? But, even if one has a priesthood given to them they must be authorized to perform or use that power.

Ultimate power is to be exalted, and so the power needed to be available. And is available to all.

Women have motherhood, and it needs priesthood power, as in the story of a man who was,becoming a green baret, he was asked to keep a lamb that was shot alive...he used whatever means he had to do so, he thought to use the priesthood power, or the very power of God.....makes me (light heartedly) think of Moana, Maui stole the heart of tafeti which was the power of creation for men, and I thought, well, don't men already have that ability. But, I also thought only Maui could restore the heart, but wnded up Moana could.
