  1. I am watching the fulfillment of my patriarchal blessing and it is cool!! The patriarch said I would share my testimony with many within and without the kingdom!!! This was BEFORE I got this new computer!! I have had this computer for about 4 months, now...Got my blessing in 2004.
  2. Actually...I just cut and pasted it!! If anybody is interested in some of my other poems, here is a link to my blog...I haven't written much lately as these forums take up much of my free time (and some time that I should not be wasting!! I am hopelessly addicted! )http://www.ldstalk.com/forums/blog/yediyd/index.php?
  3. Dr. "S"...did I mention that I love you, too? ...You crack me up!!!!
  4. I am not very good with computers, yet...so I don't know how to post it...but I have a painting hanging in a museum up here in Syracuse, NY!!! It is of a leopard jumping on a zebra from a miskeet type of tree, with mt. Kilimanjaro in the background...the painting is so life like...the zebra still has the grass that he was eating hanging from his startled mouth!! I have not painted in years!! That painting won first prize in the NY State festival of the arts when I was in 7th grade!!!!
  5. Nah...I am not going to teach it or anything...just ponder these things in my heart...and people wonder why I love Hebrew so much!!!!!!
  6. Cool! ...and I concur!!!!
  7. Jesus called her: Mary, my tower. Or: Mary, my piller of strength!! She was obviously VERY special to him...hmmmm.
  8. Oh...bummer! Well, I am going to still bring it up to my Bishop...Jesus said to take a little wine for thy stomic's sake...so for medicinal purposes......well, it's worth a shot isn't it? All my Bishop can do is say, "no". I can live with that.... ...BTW...congrats on going back to the church...sounds like you have a great girlfriend!! Keep up the good work...G-d loves you NOW, AS you are...he wants to see you improve, but that is for YOUR sake, not his...
  9. What a beautiful post!!! You are not alone, my friend!! Paul was in the same boat!! Read Romans chapter 7. He talks about how he wishes to do right but his flesh does the wrong that he hates!! And how he tries to not sin, but his flesh is weak...we ALL suffer this quandary!!! We love the Lord and want to serve him...but the flesh struggles against the spirit!! Read Romans chapter 7 today or tonight and know that you are in good company, my friend!!!!
  10. This happened to me!! Sort of!! I invited the missionaries to my door when I called the 800 number to receive my free BoM... I intended to argue with them and "have fun" with them...but when I listened to them, I found that I already had those things in my heart and I found myself agreeing with them!! But my Baptist indoctrination had me terrified of them! I was SO afraid that they were "False prophets" ...The Holy Spirit did the rest...
  11. WOW! We come from the same basic doctrinal backgrounds!! My father was a Southern Baptist...I joined a Fundamentalist Baptist church in my 20's and then left that and tried several pentecostal churches for a while...I have searched for the truth my whole life and have loved the Lord since I was a child...G-d knew my heart and he guided me to this church...I lost many "friends" when I converted, and my family have all abandoned me...but I will NEVER look back!!!
  12. I totally identified with this post. I also have noticed that we converts seem to do better on the WOW thing!! I am living it...but as I keep saying...I lament my coffee!!!...heeeyy...Elpheba...didja catch that?
  13. Really? I have been diagnosed with adult ADD...do you think, do you REALLY think... can it be true? Do you hold a current Temple recommend? Is your Bishop OK with your coffee drinking? I am getting goose bumps!!! This could be an answer to my prayers!!!!! I miss my coffee FIERCELY!!!!!!!...I know that I whine about it a lot...but honestly, no coffee taste as good as time spent in the Celestial room... :)
  14. Hey, I'm available! I am an artist, too!! But I am no spring chicken! I am 43. not sure how old you are, CB......siouz72...do you like Whitman's samplers?
  15. Checkerboy, I was touched by your post!! Do you know what touched me the most? When you spoke so lovingly about your sons!! What lucky boys they are!! I have been separated from my husband for 8 years now and I can count on my ONE hand how many times my kids have seen their dad!! He doesn't bother to call or check on them...birthdays and Christmas come and go with nary a word!! I just did back to school all by myself...again!! He never calls to see if they need anything!!! I am truly alone in raising them and they are hurt by this worse than me!!! I am so sad for them and so touched by your display of your love for your boys!! G-d bless you!! ...and take your time on the new wife, thing...let your heart heal for awhile, then you will be more ready to love someone new.......BTW, how do YOU feel about knee bangs? ...(j/k...but not really!)
  16. That is hillarious!!! ...playing "hooky"
  17. You have every right to be!! That makes me smile and proudly remember that my two do really love each other and I am lucky for that!! My son's disorder is hard for my daughter to live with at times, but she is such a good sister to him (most of the time) Like I said, Hormones have hit my home with a vengeance!! I sure hope this roller-coaster ride ends soon!! Ugh!! I don't like this stage!! Daughter is 14, son is 13...I suddenly feel the need for a nice long bubble bath!!! Calgon, take me away!!!!
  18. This thread is just for fun...there are no rules!! In fact... I think it will be MORE fun if we broaden it to MORE than one word!!!...as to mother-in-law, I add: Dragon lady!!!
  19. Just wanted to bump this up so you can see it, Dr. Stuess!!!
  20. Wow, Hijolly! I had some of those thoughts too!! Please tell us we are misinterpreting, JS!!!!! It does not sound healthy or even moral...but we could be reading you all wrong and I for one am in no possition to judge anybody!! That said...if this woman is so mentally challenged that she thinks like a child...well what is up with that? You need to re think what you are attracted to... ...of course, I could be totally wrong, and if I am, please forgive me for reading you wrong!! Please clarify for us? Thanks!! Yediyd
  21. Welcome, welcome, welcome!!! I love historical novels!!! Which time period?
