I'm Grateful

So in my Teachings of The Living Prophets class today we studied President Eyring. I decided to study his talk titled O remember Remember. I'm sure you all remember :) it from Oct 2007 conference I believe. I really enjoyed it the first and second and third times I heard/read it and I decided its about time I do something about it. I do that a lot where I think about how much truth is in something I hear or read... but then I slack and don't do anything about it. BUT today that changes! I'm a little scared because now people will know when I'm slacking but that will be good motivation I think!

So today I am grateful for technology :) not only do I have an awesome new phone (thanks mom and dad) but I have a car, electricity, HEAT, music, a lap top and other things that I have begun to think of as "essential" but really are blessings. When I was driving I stopped at a 4-way stop and noticed the car across from me check for oncoming traffic just as I had. I thought about how lucky him and I both were to have cars to get us places. It was nice.

I am also grateful for Family Home Evening. I got to teach the lesson tonight and I showed the mormon message Lifting Burdens: The Atonement of Jesus Christ. It is a really good powerful message. Then we had a photo scavenger hunt which was a lot of fun. It was a really good night for our apartment and fhe group and I'm glad we belong to a church that holds important meetings like that.

That's it until tomorrow? Hopefully!
