I know/knew the grenspresident, my hubby knows him well... let me se who else was there... wasnt Runo from there... Their grandkids from UK were just in Church on Sunday... grown to such handsome big boys! My sons were their good frends when they stil were in Romerike before their dad died and they moved to UK. Well meet anyway in the conference in Oslo in the spring. I hope you are doing well and enjoying the new knowledge you have found. It is amazing how clear the gospel is. Blessings to you and your kids... and happy new year!

It never made any sense to me either and as I was a sundayschooltacher for small kids...I skipped the lessons where I was supposed to tell that God was bodyless and everywhere and.... I really felt relief as I found out what LDS believe... I think I always believed that, even before joining! Happy hunting... and Christmas too! ... there is so much to learn... so much of interest in LDS!

I am promised to be there to meet Jesus when he comes again... hmm... maybe... IF I am supposed to be there it cant be more than most 30 years from 12... makes me over 90! Love those Mayas

Returned Missionary Doubting The Church And God
Maya replied to anthony's topic in General Discussion
Dear searcher.... I had a teacher she said: Well what do we loose if we live the life believeing in God and what do we loose if we dont!? Do you believe that the whole universe was just a coinsidence or DO you believe that there was a power that made it happen?? Do you think that the mecanisms we see around us in plants and animals are mere coinsidence and developing? If not then you DO believe in God! Maybe you just do not know His name! If there is no God there is no prelife exictence nor after life excistense. You belive there is not, or are you not sure? Would you maybe like to believe? Then let the seed work in you and it will grow to a big tree! Dont trow it away! Either there IS a God or NOT! Ok if you live your life as if there was a God..what do you loose? You live a good life beeing a good person, never hurting anyone. One day if there after all is a God you will be taken home. IFF you live your life as if there is NO God .. what do you loose? Probably you get a lot of short satisfaction moments, but they do not last long! At the end IF there after all is a God.... you loose your place in the kingdom to come as you have not lived the life you should have. I have had my doubtfull moments too...but I have decided that God excists. I have NOT red scriptures ... have not felt like so... but I been thinking a lot and I decided that no matter what, God does excist! I wont loose anything if I decide that. Now I notice myself really believing in him...Maybe you call that forcing it to me... but I do not feel like that. If you dont decide you will doubt always! -
If they are Magyar.. so are they finnish too!! Both are in finish-ugrianish language group! and yes they went to north... to Finland Some day we will know it all!! I have a good friend she is of Benjamin! (in Finland)

I have a friend she works in the radio in Finland. She told that as she made some interviews one of them she felt was very special. This Person was some kind of highly educated... prpbably a decan otr Doctor or something. He had been studying finnish people... he had found out that finnish people have judish back teeth, the bloodtype... and several other judish things... I wonder if the finnish ugrianish people in fact are the lost tribes... An other finnish man has found out that latin is finnish if you just write the letter and not its name... like: eneiemii=name and that was also red backwords... Anyway no one knows where the finnish people have come from. The old possibilities have proved wrong.

Leaving The Church, But Interested To Know Something...
Maya replied to wonderfulnewlife's topic in Introduce Yourself
I think your family is scared. Especially for kids. The grownups may believe and be strong in Church... but they do not know how to explain a child...even worse to explain to a youth, why you are not a member. Children and youth ar stil looking for the path to go and they ofcourse wish they will follow them, not you. As an adult you do have a modells influence to the others. Maybe the adults see your life as an easier sollution, which do not lead to right and ofcourse they do not wish their kids would take that path. Unfortunately they are unsure of it, that they have tought the kids well enough, so they can resist what you fell for. After all now they see that their family fortress was not as strong, as they believed and they are fixing the defences so this would never happen again. After a few years it may look better. -

I hope you been listening to the conferance on ...www.byu.tv... I had to cahange to only sound from LDS.org as the BYU stuck. To be more ready?? I dont think so.. We can never really be more ready than, that our heart says that the LDS Church is the right one. IF we are looking for a big change in us, to become more perfect or perfect... we will never be ready. To be ready is to be ready to learn more and change little by little ... it is not a statement of beeing "good enough". Beeing in the LDS Church is a "wild ride". You learn new all the time....or you slip and slide backdownwords, so you have to climb again. There is no even level, it is either up or down. Sometimes you may manage to hang on the iron rod awhile and get help to get forward or you may slide downward some ...sometimes you are not sure which way is up which down... and sometimes even there comes a strong hand to pull you uppworth and you see a couraging smile or hear a few couraging words... press on! Plan of salvation is so simple, it is so evident. When the missionaries tought me that I just knew... -

Hi Dough! Been there ... I know what you are feeling! It is like coming home. Everything is so clear, I kind of only needed someone to tell me it is true! (Been very busy at work working 8-13 hours, that is why I have not been around.) It is wonderful to hear how this opera is going! Then comes the peace.... it is undescribable... at the bottom there is the peace, no matter what happens!
