Stand in Holy Places!!

In a sea of shifting values
tossed on every wave
while the winds wail around me
i will not be afraid
to call out for captain
to calm the waves in me
when i stand a little taller
it's only then i finally see
i stand in holy places
protected from the storm
anchored safe in harbor
though my sails are ripped and worn
i stand in holy places
and i will not move
until the captain comes and says well done
he is the hope i hold on to
in holy places


there is a harbor in his holy house
an anchor in his grace
that steadies in the waves of doubt
and in every holy place
no matter where i travel
his spirit's guiding me
with the lord as my captain
there is a peaceful port in me
i stand in holy places
protected from the storm
anchored safe in harbor
though my sails are ripped and worn
i stand in holy places
and i will not move
until the lord has come and says well done
he is the hope i hold on to


i stand in holy places
protected from the storm
anchored safe in harbor
though my sails are ripped and worn
i stand in holy places
and will not move
until the lord has come and says well done
he is the hope i hold on to
in holy places
Listen to me?

If you let me, I will make you perfect. The moment you put yourself in my hands, that is what you are in for. Nothing less, or other than that. You have free will, and if you choose, you can push my away. But if you do not push me away, understand that i am going to see this job through...whatever it costs me, i will never rest, nor let you rest until you are literally perfect..until my father can say without reservation that he is well pleased with you, as he said he was well pleased with me. This i can do and will do. But i will not do anything else.


This was taken from a quote from C.S. Lewis. I found it stuck into my scriptures yesterday and i really like it. I hope that one day i can be like my father in heaven and be perfect. Have him say to me that he is well pleased with me. I know that my savior lives. I know that because of him i can return and live with them again. I can be with those i love and the ones that i have lost. I miss them all so much, but i know that i can be with them again someday. Again i hope the lord can be well pleased with me.

Fall

I love month of october because I love to watch as the leaves on the trrees change colors, I love crunching leaves as walk, I love the cool breeze I feel when I walk. I remember one experience i had about a year ago I went on a motorcycle ride up through the canyon and I just remember thinking and seeing how beautiful the trees were and I remember feeling the breeze blow in my face and i just felt such peace and that i did not have to worry about anything other then enjoying the ride seeing gods creations in front of me. I love this time of year as the summer transitions into winter. It is the best!! I can't wait to see these changes here in Montana. I have seen some trees so far and I look forward to seeing even more!! I love you montana and I am so happy to be here serving in "God's Country" fall and october is my favortite time of the year.

Team Dumbldore or Team Voldemort

In Harry Potter we read about two very important characters. Dumbledore and Voldemort. These two men remind me about lot about God and Satan. Lets compare them and see how they are alike.
Dumbledore was wise. There is not anything that he did not know. From watching the movies i always noticed that he always knew things before they happened. There is not anything Harry could get away with without Dumbledore knowing about it.  That is how God is. He knows all!!! we read in the Book of Mormon that god knoweth all things and there is nothing save he knows. (2 Nephi 9:20) We like harry can not hide things from dumbledore or god. They know what will happen before hand. Dumbledore was also gentle. Everything that he did, he was careful and things were well thought out before he did them. He was also very kind. Everything he did was for others. He never did anything to hurt someone and make fun of them. He loved everyone. God is gentle, kind, and loving. Everything he does is for us and to make sure we are happy.  Dumbledore was caring and understanding. He cared not only for him but for his students. Harry always went to him for questions and advice and Dumbledore did not care how big or small his problem was he was there to care for him and take of him. He cared for him his whole life. Dumbledore was always very understanding. He listened and understood Harry's hard times and good times. God is like that too! he loves and cares for us, he wants what is best for us. There is also nothing to big or small for the lord. He can do all things. He understands what we go through and knows best how to help us get through our hard and good times. Dumbledore and God are both very smart!! they know EVERYTHING!!!!  Now lets take a look at Voldermort and Satan. Voldemort is  Hateful towards everyone he is so desperate that he will do anything!! just to kill!! He wants all the glory for himself and wants to have charge of everything. He is always so angry. He does things to people to make them get angry and down. He is completely heartless. He does not care about anyone or anything. Everything has to be his way or else.... Satan is just like Voldermort. Satan is hateful towards everyone and every good thing. He wanted to be our savior and to have all the glory for himself, but god did not let him so he is therefore angry towards god and does all he can to make us mad, to make us hateful towards others, to make our lives miserable!! Therefore all of us missionaries that are here in Montana are part of gods army!! so we can win the fight against Satan. In Harry Potter all the students gather together and build Dumbledores army to fight against Voldermort. Do we want to be a part of voldermort or Satan's death eaters?! No we want to be with Dumbledore and God. At least i know i do. What about you? Are you team Dumbledore or Team Voldermort?  I like what Harry says to his friends at the very end of the 5th movie after they had just had that big battle at the ministry with the death eaters. "Even though we have a fight ahead of us, we have one thing that voldermort dosen't have. Something worth fighting for!

I love to see the temple. I am going there someday. To feel the holy spirit, to listen and to pray. For the temple is a house of god, a place of love and beauty. I will prepare myself while i am young, this is my sacred duty! I love to see the temple i''l go inside one day I'll covnat with my father I'll promise to obey. For the temple is a holy place where we are sealed together. As a child of god i've learned this truth: A family is forever. I have a family here on earth, they are so good to me. I want to shrare my life with them through all eternity!! Families can be together forever, through heavenly fathers plan. I always want to be with my own family! and the lord has shwon me how i can. The lord has shown me how i can. I will prepare most carefully so i can marry in gods temple for all eternity. There are 135 temples operating, 13 under contruction and 13 annouced through out the world today!  http://www.ldschurchtemples.com/temples/
