Joseph Smith's First Prayer/Vision
Because Joseph Smith prayed and because Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ appeared to him and restored the gospel of Jesus Christ through him, we, as families can be sealed forever in one of the temples on the earth today.
I am thankful for Joseph Smith and his courage throughout his life.
I am thankful that Heavenly Father and Jesus restored the gospel to the earth.
There have been many artists who have depicted what it might have looked like when Joseph Smith went into the woods to ask Heavenly Father which church to join.
I like this FIRST sculpture because it shows the love that Heavenly Father has for Jesus, since his arm is around him as Jesus talks to Joseph.

Joseph, Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ
This second sculpture I like because of the look on Heavenly Father's face as he is talking with Joseph.

"IT WILL ALL WORK OUT"
(That is their family motto. The title of her talk is "Yielding Our Hearts to God -- Sister Neill F. Marriott, Second Counselor in the Young Women General Presidency)
This is Sister Marriott's talk. (Yes -- she is related to the people who own the Marriott Centers and Hotels.)
My parents were serving a mission in Brazil (teaching piano lessons to members of the Church) when Brother Marriott (her husband) was the Mission President there!!! : ) I remember my Mom telling me about their daughter's death.
I liked Sister Marriott's talk (which is from the October General Conference this year -- 2015).
Here is the link to listen to it (or to read it):
Yielding Our Hearts to God
And here is the song she is referring to -- as sung by Deborah P. Kim. I like this version of the song, and how Deborah sings it:
Have Thine Own Way, Lord

COOKING WITH HER GRANDMA
I do not speak Spanish (or any language similar to it), but I like this YouTube video.
I like learning how to make new and different foods -- especially home-made ones from other countries.
I have never had this dish before.
I think it's funny how the Grandmother says, "It's so simple to make, but my Grand-daughter wants to make a video.".
Yet -- As I was watching the video, I thought -- there's no way I'd be able to remember to do all of that!!
I liked the fact that the Grand-daughter wants to record her Grandmother making food, and that she obviously loves and respects her Grandmother. : )
As the Grandmother is stirring the food in the TEFLON pan with a METAL spoon, it goes against everything I have ever learned! Eeeek! But I have to just try to ignore that. : )
Enjoy!

HERE is how she makes "vinegar". In the video, she mentions "piloncillos", which is unprocessed brown sugar:

SATAN's "To-Do" LIST
Every single day, Satan's "To-Do" list includes:
Thwart
Confuse
Distract
Mislead
Discourage
Frighten
(Repeat)
Therefore -- PUT ON the "Whole Armour of God"!
This is one of my favorite scriptures below (Ephesians 6, in the New Testament), where Paul talks about why we need to do that:
The Whole Armour of God
People may not want God's help (because "they can do it on their own"), but they NEED His protection from unseen forces at work. That protection comes from God when we believe in the truth and are walking on the right path WITH Him.
Teach your children not to be afraid, but to be AWARE that while here on earth, we will be tempted to do things that will lead us to unhappiness. Those things might look, sound or feel enticing, but they will not lead us toward God.
We need to "hold on to the iron rod", which is the word of God, and obey His words.
In the Book of Mormon, Lehi tells his family about seeing a rod of iron that went along a path that lead to a beautiful tree (the Tree of Life) which has delicious fruit.
Many people were on the path to the tree, however, there a great mist of darkness arose, and many people lost their way and wandered off the path. Those who were clinging to the iron rod (the word of God) made it safely to the tree.
Lehi's story was an example of our journey toward God. We must hold tightly to the Word of God (by studying and obeying) so that we don't get lost.
Here's the story in 1Nephi 8 (in the Book of Mormon):
The Tree of Life Vision (in the scriptures)
Here's a painting of "The Tree of Life". I like it because to me, it focuses on my journey to The Tree of Life, and not on what anyone else is doing.

Do You Want the Earth to be HAPPY? : )
We hear a LOT about people wanting things to be "CLEAN" and "PURE", and we hear about the damage to the atmosphere, and how we should take care of the earth.
The EARTH herself, has spoken, and said what pains her.
In the Pearl of Great Price, Moses 7:48-49, read what the Earth says.
Teach your children that if they would like to contribute to the Earth's "well-being", that they should repent early and often and strive to obey God's commandments.
We will all make mistakes, daily, but as long as we are on the right path, and our goals, thoughts and deeds are good, we will be helping the Earth to be happy. : )

MARRIAGE FOREVER is the Ultimate Goal
If eternal marriage, personal happiness, and always doing good things are your goals, then read on. : )
This subject below is p............... -- pictures that should not be viewed.
Viewing p................. is like every day, placing little pre-set bombs everywhere in your home, in your car, in your pocket, but then always resetting the time that they will go off, before they go off.
However, one day, being human, you'll forget to reset them, and like it or not, they'll explode, just like they're meant to do.
You reap what you sow.
People don't learn anything from viewing p.............., and they do not grow spiritually or intellectually. No. Quite the contrary.
They lose everything -- self-respect, discipline & relationships.
It is not normal, healthy behavior. There is nothing positive about it.
It is isolating.
It is harmful.
It harms the people who are photographed.
It harms individuals and families.
When two people marry, the hopes and expectations are high.......
If one of those two people engages in p................... the effects are ugly and deep. The marriage begins to crumble.
If "discovered", the person might feel angry and/or embarrassed.
They may or may not stop their behavior.
If they DO stop their behavior and if they exert the necessary effort to not continue it, then they have hopped on the road back to a better life -- a life with God and, eventually, with a family of their own.
If they continue their behavior, they will FEEL that it is wrong, yet Satan and his angels will PULL them close to it so that the person does not want to look away.
They'll eventually be somewhere (spiritually and mentally), where they don't care what anyone wants them to do. They'll do "whatever they want to".
They might have previously been able to detect Satan's influence in any place that they were. They might have previously said, "Get me out of here!" when they entered a room or a building where they FELT that it was a place that they should not be.
Now -- they might say those same words ("Get me out of here.") when they are somewhere that the Holy Ghost's presence can be strongly felt (per a talk by Brad Wilcox Saved by Grace).
Perhaps one day, however, after the person has experienced enough difficulty, heartache and isolation, they will be ready to repent.
When that day finally comes, thankfully, they CAN repent. Because of Jesus's Atonement, we can return to our loving, merciful Heavenly Father if we repent.
(I have posted other videos here on my blog that talk about that.)
Nobody is perfect. Our life here on earth will be full of mistakes and sin. We must be humble enough to accept that we are not perfect, and admit our mistakes and sins when they happen. Say your sorry when you forget to do something. Tell your husband or wife, your kids, your friends, relatives, co-workers and strangers on the street, that you are sorry when you do something you shouldn't have done. Repent early and often -- even daily.
When we do that, we can have (among many other wonderful things.....) happiness, and the hope of an eternal marriage with someone that we love, and who loves us.

The Piano Guys
I'm not a huge fan of "The Piano Guys". I lean more toward the sounds of Rhythm and Blues, Barry Manilow, Elton John and some of the stuff by The Beach Boys.
However -- if you or your kids like The Piano Guys, then you might enjoy watching this video, which is over an HOUR long, which might mean I'll have to watch it in segments, over a few days. : )
They talk about having standards and sticking to them -- especially being in the music business.
Enjoy!

Maybe your Adobe Flash is updated. If so, then it'll show the picture of their family as a video to play, and you'll be able to play it right away.) : )

A TESTIMONY OF JOSEPH SMITH
This is Brother Jayson Kunzler, speaking at a BYU-Idaho Devotional on October 20, 2015!
I know Brother Kunzler!! So it was very cool to listen to him speak.
I loved his talk. I thought it was really good. : )
He talked about the importance of having a testimony of Joseph Smith.
Teach your children about Joseph Smith and the importance of his life in ours.
He sacrificed his life in order for the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to be on the earth again -- along with all of the Priesthood keys and ordinances necessary for us to be able to return to live as families with Heavenly Father. : ) Yay!

Blessing your Family Through Priesthood Ordinances
Here is a link to a LONG list of Priesthood ordinances performed with the proper authority and in the proper way.
When your children are born, they can be given a Priesthood Blessing.
When your children turn 8 years old, they are accountable for their actions, and they can be baptized and confirmed, and told to receive the Holy Ghost as their constant companion.
When your son or daughter turns 16, they can receive a Patriarchal Blessing from the Patriarch of the Stake. It can be a blessing to them throughout their life, since it is recorded and then printed and mailed to them after the blessing has been given.
Then, there will be times when a family member might need a Priesthood blessing if they get sick or injured.
Staying a worthy Priesthood holder is such a blessing to not only you and your family, but to your friends and neighbors who might also need various blessings.
At this website, I like the pictures and the American Sign Language videos!

Song -- "The Other Day -- I Saw (met) A Bear"
This song came into my head tonight. : )
My Mom used to sing it on a lot of different occasions, and I remember her teaching this song to the various groups of kids I was with, when I was young (and all the way through my teenage years).
These are the words my Mom would sing:
I'll highlight in pink the words which she would sing, which are different than the song which I will give the link to:
"The other day -- I saw a bear. A great big bear -- a way up there.
The other day I saw a bear...... A great big bear a way up there.
(I don't remember singing the part about "He looked at me, I looked at him, but maybe my Mom sang those words too........)
He said to me -- You'd better run.... I see you ain't..... got any gun.
He said to me you'd better run......... I see you ain't got any gun.
And so I ran..... Away from there......... and right behind.... me was that bear....
And so I ran away from there....... and right behind me was that bear.
Ahead of me -- there was a tree -- A great big tree -- Oh lucky me!
Ahead of me there was a tree....... A great big tree, oh lucky me!
The nearest branch... was 10 feet up. I'd have to jump....... and chance my luck......
The nearest branch was 10 feet up......... I'd have to jump and chance my luck.
And so I jumped, into the air -- and missed that branch -- a way up there.
And so I jumped into the air -- and missed that branch a way up there.
Now don't you fret -- and don't you frown -- I caught that branch -- on my way down.
Now don't you fret and don't you frown......... I caught that branch on my way down.
The moral of......... this story is.......... (I can't remember!)
The moral of this story is...........". (I'll have to ask my Mom!)

I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR
My friend and her husband sang this song as I accompanied them on the piano this past Sunday.
Her husband wrote the piano arrangement!
I'm glad he gave me permission to post it.
We recorded this the day before they sang (per the suggestion of my Mom, so she could hear it too, since she lives in another state).

"I KNOW HE LIVES" -- Song
I like this song.
I was at Church waiting for Choir to start, and the Primary children of another Ward were in the Chapel rehearsing for their Primary program.
When I heard this song, I loved it and wanted to know the name of it and how I could get a copy of it.
While the kids were singing, I walked around to the side door, went in and as the kids continued to sing, I knelt by the piano player and I wrote down the name of the song, the name of the composer (Kamie Bolen) and the website (www.kamiebolen.com) where I could buy a copy!
Yay! Success!
Today, I went to the site and bought a copy of it and printed it off! Yay!
It was 9 pages, for $3.49.
If you are interested in getting this song for you and your children to sing, you can go to this link, and listen to most of the song to see if you like it. Click the link, then scroll down to
You can click on the pink-ish/purple-ish arrow underneath the words and listen to almost all of the song.

If you are interested in getting this song for you and your children to sing, you can go to this link, and listen to most of the song to see if you like it. Click the link, then scroll down to
“I Know He Lives” (Bonus Track) Sheet Music — $3.49
It's under the 5th picture down. The picture is of Jesus with a child. The words on the icon are "I know My Savior Lives", because that's the name of the Primary Program for 2015, but the song IS "I Know He Lives".You can click on the pink-ish/purple-ish arrow underneath the words and listen to almost all of the song.

A SUMMER WITH GREAT-AUNT ROSE
I like this story, told by Elder Uchtdorf, of the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, at the recent General Women's Broadcast in October 2015.
Enjoy!

SHERI DEW -- "Believers In Hollywood" (on BYUtv)
If you're looking for a worthwhile activity for Sunday, I think this is a good one -- to watch this video.
I liked the first and last interviews.
Michael Flaherty was the first and William Wallace was the 3rd and last interview.
They talked about how their belief in God has helped them along the way.
Yes -- there's a girl who Sheri interviews as well (interview number two), but I am not moved by her voice, so I skipped her interview.
Oh! And you can click on the "cc" near the bottom of the video (to the right of the bar that ticks away the "time of the video") and turn off the captions.
Enjoy. : )

SHARPENING KNIVES
Hey! Have this for a Family Home Evening Activity!
Teach your family how to sharpen a knife, using a variety of different items to sharpen it with.
This is a YouTube video of a guy showing you how to sharpen a knife using the edge of the top part of the glass of a partially rolled-down car window, or the bottom edge of a mug, or a nail file (the kind that have the sand-paper type of top and bottom), the top of another knife, or a smooth stone. : )
Enjoy and Learn!
