The Blessings Will Come

  I got this from Creative LDS Quotes on Fb. Just a reminder that all promised blessings will be ours if we continue to be faithful. Those blessings might not come  when we want them to but Father knows  best and only wants the best for us, so trust in Him and all will be well.   Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding; In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. Doctrine and Covenants 82:10; I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say; but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise.

Shine, a 168 Film Festival Production

I went out with the missionaries last week for dinner, meeting with an old friend and an investigator. The old friend was from the distant past, recognizing me for my hospitality. It's been a couple years, since I invited her over to our house, having her over for dinner. She is still barely getting established like the last time that I met her; however, she had me over for dinner at this occasion. This blog post is inspired by the presence of the investigator that joined us that night. His name is Max Terronez. He is one of those people that tells a lot of stories, and you may question whether he is for real. He spoke of many real life and charitable situations, but I want to write about his production of a film for the 168 Hour Film Festival, an international faith based production.  He approached the sister that I received for dinner, asking if she would like to be the executive director. This means that she would simply fund the production of the film, which they claimed was

Laptop Review

I dedicate this to Trevor Hicken, my brother, who I hope will be writing for you soon. He is a technology wizard. A3 Ultra-slim 14.0" LCD Screen 1366x768 Windows 7 Intel D2500 + NM10 Dual Core 1.86GHz 1GB RAM Laptop Computer with Wi-Fi (160GB HD) (Silver) From Focalprice A Completely Lousy Chinese Product I bought this laptop for my brother, expecting that it would run according to it's specs, but it didn't. The version of Windows 7 was many years old, making it very slow. It would have taken forever for my brother to update it, so he put Linux on it. When he did that, he found that the laptop would not hold the operating systems. He would have to install the software over and over. He found an operating system that seems to be holding, which works okay; however, the battery only lasts about 40 minutes now, since he accidentally let it die. It is basically a laptop from the nineties.

Divine Right

By Isidro Zapata This is very sad about this trend going around all because of some law. How can people use the book and verse to claim it says you can keep certain people out Look out for this con. Are you like Jesus does your holy stance matching his role if so walk on water and feed five thousand people. Jesus mingles with the people and never cast anyone out. So how can you use  his verses and turn them into words of darkness. Get a grip you whip of lying and turning around the verses for your own glorification. Stop get out go back to where you belong it’s not here in this amazing place. We are not a class system that brings division but Capitalism brings this to our home and goes into your dome and stays there. Jesus said love one another treat the other better then yourself not to be a master but to be a servant of other’s so where does this separation begin get out of here then and swim or fly out of here because this land never belong to YOU or me we are aliens living in lands

Hello, New Beginnings New Duties

"Now is the time for members and missionaries to work together, to come together, to labor in the Lord's vineyard, to bring souls unto him" -President Monson this is the last new member lesson we had with Silvester ans my last time teaching with  y hermana Arevalo We had the best Family night (f.h.e) ever!! with Roxana and her three children, her husband and good friend of hers who is a member from a different branch.

We were having so much fun, espec

Things You Should Know About Tuesdays: Neuroblastoma Kids

Imagine being 2-3 years old (most occur in children under the age of 2).  Having a condition only 4 per million children have.  A condition that causes tumors to grow along the nervous system outside of the brain. Picture having test after test run, in dark and scary rooms with loud and frightening machines. It seems that every grown-up you see want to hurt you with a needle to get blood. Then you sit in a big chair in front of a big desk, while your mom and dad cry. And then suddenly more hospital visits.  You start to recognize that you are driving to a place that scares you and you begin to cry even before you arrive. And suddenly there is a weird thing on your chest. But they seem to be able to get blood out of it so no more horrible pokes. And then then the nurses start giving you "medicine" to make you "feel better". But you don't feel better.  You feel tired and sick to your stomach. You hurt and you don't know why   You h

Meet Penny Rich

I wanted to give a little background on me.  I was born and raised in Palmyra New York.   In 2002 i had two elders walking door to door signing christmas carols.   I had a feeling that i should listen to them.  Two weeks early i prayed for guidance and direction in my life.  And i found it with two elders.  When they were talking to me i felt like i already knew what they were teaching me was true.    I have had a lot of struggles in my life and i found my biggest strength through the Gospel in my life.    I lost both my parents to death and struggled with it alot.    I know that  i will see them again..  I had the spirit whisper alot  of comfort through my life to me .

February 23, 2014

Yesterday I started a Twitter account, an account at a micro-blog website, and the second tweet that I posted is that Trevor Hicken is a Sombie. I misspell it on purpose; although, it is a little disrespectful to people with insomnia. Trevor doesn’t have good sleeping habits. When you hang out with a Sombie, there is a good chance that you will become one, not getting enough sleep, always feeling tired, dozing off during many important activities. This new generation doesn't know how to have good sleeping habits. I see many people struggle at school. It started on a Friday, a few weeks ago. Trevor and I spontaneously went to a Leaves' Eyes concert. We thought that the concert would start early and on time like the Demi Lovato concert that we went to the following Tuesday. Michael Angulo went with us too, but he was too scared to attend the concert because the line led to a show called Moodsmash or something like that, a wrestling show. It looked like a circus. Michael tho

"Pray?" by Isidro Zapata

What? I sat their stun for a second. Did I hear him right? He went on and say you write down the pros and cons of each choice then pray. When God gives you an answer then you do what he tells you to do. I looked at him and replied “I will I promise”. I looked down on the floor and asked him if he could please help me up? I was embarrassed to have to ask for help to get out of the chair. As he helped me up he asked if I needed help to my car? This just pretty much just broke me and showed me where I really am. For a split second her voice rang loud and clear in my head. I made up my mind in what I am going to do no need to pray. As I got into my car I had to sit and rest so I went and turned on the radio. The voice coming through the radio just started speaking about the exact situation I am in!! Everything I had been dealing with, but how? How could this be? Every single word he spoke seemed it was just for me to hear and no one else. God knows, what we need to hear and at the right

Hey y'all!

Hey y'all! My name is Rachel. I am a young single adult. I live in the south in this small town in the middle of nowhere. I attend a little branch here in my town. The church is definitely different out here. I am big on crafting and reading. That is how I spend most of my free time. I have a calling as a family history center consultant and technical advisor. I LOVE family history work. I only started work on my family history work last summer and I have found SO much information. I've been considering starting up a family history blog, but I'm still tossing the idea around. I do have a personal blog that I rarely use. Lately I have been on this reading and writing kick. I enjoy writing but I feel that I am not too great at it and that people won't be interested in what I have to say. I think that this is an opportunity for me to develop my talents and branch out a little. I hope that maybe I can inspire someone with what I have to share. I would love for y'all to

It is Finished

It is finished. I went to work for the last time yesterday, and even though jobs are hard to come by I decided to quit anyway and here is why. When I first applied for the job and was successful in my interview, I stated that I would not work on Sundays, and at first I wasn't give a schedule to work on Sundays.Then I got one Sunday, to work from 10am -6pm so I could only attend sacrament meeting. Sadly I compromised and went anyway, something i shouldn't have done. The next time I got a Sunday, I asked the supervisor if I could work the night shift 4pm to 12am , so that I can attend my meetings at church. She obliged and allowed me to do so. So I was working every other Sunday, but I didn't want to because it just felt awful to be working on Sunday, and I wasn't feeling the spirit as much as I wanted to either. I was always tired on Monday mornings when I had class at 10am, and I am often late for class because I couldn't get up in the morning. Then one Sunday when
