Great Quote I Found

Today is the first day of General Conference in our church. It is a twice a year occurance. It is where we hear from our Prophet and the Quarum of 12 Apostles and other speakers that they have chosen to speak to us and bring us messages. It is very good, spiritual and uplifting. I love Conference! Today we stayed home and listened to it over the computer. I was also cleaning my sewing/computer room. I found this quote from Jeffrey R. Holland (one of our Apostles). He says "In the gospel of Jesus Christ you have help from both sides of the veil and you must never forget that. When disappointment and discouragement strike - and they will - you remember and never forget that if our eyes could be opened we would see horses and chariots of fire as far as the eye can see riding at reckless speed to come to our protection (see 2 Kings 6:16-17). They will always be there, these armies of Heaven, in defense of Abraham's Seed." Isn't that a great quote. It sure gives me comfort knowing that I am not alone in my trials, I have help from our big brother Jesus, our Heavenly Father and the armies of Heaven.

I walked back to our creek to see if there were any fish coming upstream yet, I didn't see any. Only saw a few geese. There have been hundreds of them.My husband even saw a few flocks of white swans resting in our field and creek.

I found some things that I was working on with my family history, and put them all in a file. I need to get back to working on that. I have found a lot of family on my Father's side, but not so much on my Mother's side.

I really need to get started sewing again if I want to do any craft shows this spring and summer.

Well it is getting late, need to get to bed.
