The Signature of God in Our Lives

I believe it was President Eyring who counseled us to spend some time - he said every evening - to reflect on our day and recognize the workings of God and the Spirit in our lives so we can be more aware of how blessed we really are. 

Yesterday (Saturday) Mar went to the store.  She just needed some French bread for our dinner.  She saw a bag of French bread rolls.  It was more than we needed, but she got them anyway.  She saw some smoked turkey at half price.  Now we didn't need that at all, and her thought said, no, we don't need that at all.  But still she thought we might need it some day, and bought it.  She also bought one tomato - just one.  It was an interesting shopping trip.  She bought things we did not need or really ever use.

Then today the Elder's called and asked if they could come to lunch.  We just happened to have those things available for them to have a good meal on little notice. 

Coincidence?  I think not.  I think the Lord was watching out for the Elders -- yes I do.

Oblivion

Just an average movie.  I enjoyed it, but that was all.

Sorry Mr. Cruise.

Longmont Symphony

Margaret and I were invited by a couple to go to the season opening concert of the Longmont Symphony.  It was very enjoyable.  It is surprising that a "little" community like Longmont can seat such an accomplished orchestra.
