Light House

JESUS IS THE LIGHT HOUSE OF THE WORLD:

Jesus suffered all things to pay the price so we do not have to go through them. I had a Seminary teacher once who tried to explain the Atonement. He held up a flashlight and said this represents the Light within us. This toothpick represents our sins. He held up the flashlight in front of the toothpick and it cast quite a big shadow. Then he turned on an overhead projector and said this represents the Savior’s light. If you take that same sin or toothpick and put it in front of a more powerful light such as an overhead projector, the rays of light are so great that it bends around the toothpick and thus no longer casts a shadow. So it is with Christ’s light which increased with the Atonement as to overshadow the sins and cares of the entire population of all mankind. Thus Faith in our Savior is incredibly important to attaining our Salvation and Eternal Increase. Thus Jesus is the LIGHT and LIFE of this World.

Good Boys and Girls

My favorite Holiday is Christmas. Santa giving gifts is representative of Jesus who gave us the greatest gift of all. We may not realize the magnitude of the gifts we have or will receive from Heaven....but for my children I wanted Christmas to be the time when dreams come true. The good girl and boy list is representative of Judgement Day.  I believe everyone was on that list to come to Earth and we each have good inside of us if we will each choose to stay that way or return if we stray. May we each be a Good Girl and Boy.

Ginger, our Beloved Pet

Here a painting of our beloved 'Ginger' our Sheltie Collie. She was so super intelligent. She knew English, you could just talk to her and she totally understood and would obey. (go get the newspaper, get under the table so people do not trip over you, watch the baby for me while I get something... lots of stories about her...etc...)
She died of old age at 15 and hopefully will be with us in the next life.
