"As I search the Holy Scrptures. . . "

I love and appreciate attending and listening to General Conference twice a year. I love reading the scriptures that give me the words of wisdom and remember the covenants I have made with my Heavenly Father. My days go better and best when I take the first fifteen to twenty minutes to study, pray and learn from them.

As I am reading I receive impressions on how to best express my concern and desire for ALL my posterity to drink from the waters of Eternal Life. Mosiah 2:35-37 condenses that whole chapter and closes with King Benjamin's(conference address) to his people. I am in awe at how specific he is in telling us what we must do and enjoy the blessings of exaltation.

Mosiah 2:41~ And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it.

The scriptures are our Urim amd Thumnin, AND Liahona, as is the Holy Ghost in guiding us safely home to our reward. What more can I ask?













This is my dad, Carlos giving a thumbs up. This photo was taken (in Idaho) the last time I saw him alive.


We will have a busy day today. We are going to a wedding in Cedar City to a nephew's wedding, John and Patty's son, Chris and his bride Sidni. Ron's brother, LeRoy and Valerie Walser are here with us from Oklahoma us to attend the wedding. We love having this time with them for several days.
