DON'T BE IN A HURRY

I loved the article in the June Ensign called, "Don't be in a Hurry". Soooo much wisdom in this article. Any of you kids that don't take the Ensign and want a subscription to it please let me know and I will pay for it. It gives me such a spiritual boost!
MAKING TIME FOR CHRIST
Before we can successfully undertake a personal search for Jesus, we must first prepare time for him in our lives and room for him in our hearts. In these busy days there are many who have time for golf, time for shopping, time for work, time for play--but no time for Christ.
"Lovely homes dot the land and provide rooms for eating, rooms for sleeping, playrooms, sewing rooms, television rooms, but no rooms for Christ.
"Do we get a pang of conscience as we recall his own words: 'The foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.' Or do we flush with embarrassment when we remember,'And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for him in the inn.' No room. No room. No room. Ever has it been.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN!!!












Today we honor Brian on his 59th B-Day. Next year we'll have to do something special for his 60th. Last night Chelsea and I took him to the Ahmonson therater to see the play, "South pacific". It was marvelous. I think that most of you will agree with me when I say his greatest attribute is his cheerfulness. Most of the time Brian is cheerful to the max.
He is also multi-talented and enjoys finding out new facts. I love how he generously he shares his knowledge with others. Many professionals are stingy with thier knowledge expecting a "fee" for thier advice. Not Brian. He generously shares with anyone in need. While his ways often drive me crazy, I still feel lucky to be loved by this man. We are so blessed to have a husband and father who loves his family like he does. Happy Birthday darling and may there be many to come.
