Each book literally a testament of Jesus Christ and basically at the core tell that Jesus is our Savior, He was needed and fufilled his mission.

Callings come from God, above all callings held which have been many it has been most meaningful to be in the nursery, that it is the one place where instead of uplifting you are helped, taught, and uplifted.

Repentance isn't really about steps, that go in order, but these are principles of repentance:
1 we must recognize our sin
2 we must feel sorry
3 we must forsake our sin
4 we must confess
5 we must make restitution
6 we must make restitution
7 we must forgive others
8 we must keep the commandments of God

There are reaching effects of our sins, and we all must truly repent.

Baptism at 5 for Gerard. Fireside at 7pm

Nostalgic about leaving a house that was a home and we recall so many memories.

We are in many families, a group of people of a common goal or belief.

We learn in family situations. We are aware of the needs of another.

These we are closest with can teach and provide.

Fathers and mothers are needed to raise children.

Imperative that you do not neglect your family, these roles define our eternal being.

If satan is to destroy the world he will destroy the family.

When it seems to drag on forever, they will grow up and your chance will go away. So, make impressions early or someone else will and then habits will be set.

No place in your heart for an answer. Holes need to be carved out by experience so that the blessings can come.

Life will create a holding place for your answer, it is constantly readfirmed that prayers are actually heard, for real no doubt there, it is only in the answer because it is not recognized or seen yet.

We are not anyone's savior.

If you raise up a child he will not depart, this must be true. So when a child does depart it feels like something was done wrong, but there are tons of examples of righteous parents who had children go astray. But maybe God doesn't see things as immediate and finite as we do. If Prayers are heard and that scripture is true, then we need FAITH and believe it is working as it should.

I have heard of it referred to as timing. Because, God does not work on a McDonald's time frame there does not seem to have any effect. Timing to be visible is a strange thing.

I have noticed that serving others is taught as such a normal thing. It was not just part of life and so it is much more of a sacrifice to me, but I wish sometimes that was just how I had been raised to believe life simply was.
