Met with the Stake President Wednesday night. We had a nice chat about the new ward organization. After that, he met with each one of us independently. When he met with me, we spoke a little about my parents and more about my testimony. Finally, he signed the Recommend.
I am so thrilled at the prospect of going to the Temple. I left a message with the Temple to see if the date we want is available (12/11/2010). Hopefully it will all turn out OK.
Last Sunday I gave my first lesson at the new ward as GD teacher. I felt I was not as prepared as I should have been or like to be. However, the lesson turned out fine. Any lesson about Isaiah and his description of the depth of the love of the Savior can't really go wrong.
Turns out that some of the Old Testament books are much easier to read in English than in Hebrew... I find myself, on occasion, using the KJV to interpret the Hebrew Tanakh... True, on occasion I disagree with the translation, but most often it simply provides clarification.
TOTD: "Blood is thicker than water" should apply to all our brothers and sisters.

ReplyDeleteWhen you go to the Temple, find a quiet place, then recite the Shema.
