Absolutely amazing…

God once again - reminds me that He is always there,

to pick me up when I am down -

by sending me an angel.

It’s amazing, the works of the Spirit

the need to be reminded of reality through understanding friends….

Thank You.

I understand more clearly now -

I got lost on my own path, but you helped me get back on track.

Thank you for sorting out my scattered mind -

I can see more clearly now.

A Big "Thank You" To My Readers!

I just wanted to say "Thank You" to all my readers who take the time to comment and express their opinions. You may disagree with me, but I love that you do. It brings up an enticing discussion and helps inform me of another point of view, or another way of looking at the issue at hand. Even if you do agree with me and you just share your thoughts in agreement to mine, I love to hear from you and read what you have to say. So thank you for the time you take to add your words to my blog. :)

To Fruits & Vegetables:
Juice Plus+

"Eat more fruits and vegetables."
It’s the one recommendation in almost every diet plan, every guide to nutrition, every fitness book. Even organizations such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the World Health Organization, the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society, and the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion agree. But as much as it’s preached, most people still don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables every day. Juice Plus+ helps fill that gap.

Why Do I Put Quotes on "Mormons" ?

The word "Mormon" is an inaccurate nickname for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (or The Church of Jesus Christ). If you are referring to someone from the Church, that person may appropriately be called a Latter-day Saint or LDS. The term “Saint” means “member.”

It was given to the "Mormons" in the early years of the Church because of The Book of Mormon. Calling a Latter-day Saint a "Mormon" is tantamount to calling a Jew a "Moses". It's the name of a man, and it doesn't make any sense. It's like calling any other Christian a "Peter". Mormon was a prophet, not a book, and not a religion. Just as Moses was a prophet and not a religion. It was easy for non-"Mormons" to remember the name "Mormon" and unfortunately is the dominant nickname/abbreviation for the Church today.

The prophet Mormon abridged the books of several other ancient American Christian prophets, and because it was his abridgment, or his book, it is called The Book of Mormon.

One final note: it should be remembered that the nickname was originally applied to Latter-day Saints as a derogatory term of disrespect and prejudice. In my humble opinion when you call me "Mormon" you join the ranks of those who first persecuted and killed those of my faith in the past. You join the ranks of those who today display their ignorance in calling their black brothers "niggers".

If you would please, as often as you can remember - please refer to the "Mormon" Church as either The Church of Jesus Christ or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. If you are referring to someone from the Church, that person may appropriately be called a Latter-day Saint or LDS.

*The official Church Styleguide for the Press concerning the use of the word "Mormon"
_______________________________________ THE: The one and only
CHURCH: The kingdom of God on earth set up to help all people attain exaltation
OF: The Church belongs to
JESUS: The Savior
CHRIST: The Anointed One, or the Messiah
OF LATTER-DAY: This dispensation is the latter days, the dispensation of the fullness of times. These are the days just prior to the time when the Savior will come the second time to the earth.
SAINTS: Saints are faithful members of the Church who sanctify themselves by the way they strive to live the teachings of the gospel. The word Saint is related in meaning to the word Sanctify.

Got A Tune Stuck In Your Head? Find It On iTunes!

I find iTunes to be the most sensible way to go when purchasing music. Have you ever purchased a CD and only found 3 songs that you liked and the rest you always skipped over? Why buy CD's anymore! Go and find the songs you like for .99 a song and listen Happy! :)
My Top Favorite Things At The Moment...

Cranberry Supplements:

Helps me so much with pain and bladder infections. A personal thing to say I suppose, but if you struggle with any sort of bladder infection regularly, this is a miracle! If you can't afford these supplements, drinking cranberry juice regularly helps SO MUCH!

Baggu Grocery Shopping Bags:

What a great step in moving forward with saving the environment. What a waste to bring home groceries and then turn around and throw the bags away or store them where they hardly get used. Who needs that extra clutter anyways? Make a positive move towards preserving our GREEN earth and use re-usable bags when shopping. Little steps make a HUGE difference. :)

Ovaltine:

My current addiction. I LOVE this stuff almost TOO much. ;)

Clorox GreenWorks:

This brand of cleaner is very inexpensive and I just cleaned the bathroom with these today and can I tell you that it is the BEST cleaner I have EVER used?! The best part is, it's GREAT for the environment! Also a plus: it doesn't stink like those strong bleach cleaners do.
