A Sunday thought!

My cute friend Erin has been putting Sunday thoughts on her blog, and I love them. They help me to remember to make Sunday's distinct from the rest of the days of the week, and they are inspiring as well. So, here is my thought for Sunday. A few weeks ago, we had the missionaries over for dinner and as we were finished, they asked if they could close with a scripture and a prayer. The scripture was amazing and reminded me of why, and how I became a member of the church. The scripture talked about making the home like a temple, a place for our father in heaven and a place where the spirit can dwell. He said he can always tell the homes that put heavenly father first. You can see it on the walls, you can feel the spirit and you can see it in the hearts of the family. Truthfully, that is why I joined the church! For all my friends growing up, I want you to know that is exactly what I felt in your homes, and I fell in love with that feeling. Dusty, yours for sure left an impression! I love your family. Chante, Lindsay L, Lindsey T, Angie, yours was a huge impact! Your brother even baptized me. The list could go on for a while but what I'm trying to say is that, that scripture couldn't be more true. I always felt something different in those homes and I can only hope that our home will be that way for our kids and their friends. Since I have finished school, I have dedicated my self to reading more church books. The first one is Sheri Dew's: If life were easy, it wouldn't be hard. So far it is a great book. It reminds me of what this life is really about. It brings me back to reality and reminds me we are in this world for a purpose and not of it. So if anyone is looking for a good read, this one is great. I highly recommend it.
