1212. Preparation for the days of tribulation: Pres. Ezra Taft Benson, Talk, and other good counsel!

I don't believe in being a pessimist!  Actually I love life, and I am so grateful, at my age of 85, to be able to live through the challenges the world, and my family are now facing daily.

 Early this morning, the dear sister, Ruby, of my deceased husband Wayne, passed away at age 91 -- the 8th of a family of 9 children.  And my son-in-law who fell in the early morning 2 days ago, will have a serious operation on his left elbow this morning.  None of this is related to the Corona Virus, which is devastating the world today.  

 These videos may not be comforting, but they may help us to feel that Heavenly Father knows what would come at this time, and in the future, and will help us get through them.  Let's help each other, so we will all come out okay!

 We all were born for this time, and we truly have the faith and strength to do our best in these circumstances, and help others also!  

 I'm not sure just when each of these warnings were given.

Hopefully, we won't be like the 5 virgins who were asleep!  We have been given a warning, and hopefully we can use it to avoid future events!

 LOVE TO ALL, AND HOPING YOU ARE OKAY AND HELPING EACH OTHER!

121. Have you had your own Personal Gethsemane? I have had -- twice!

Image
I ran across this article this morning from a blog called:  LDS S.M.I.L E.  You  can also follow it at:    http://www.ldssmile.com   (Copy and paste)             It stands for LDS Spiritually Minded is Life Eternal. I have copied it as it was in their blog.  In my title, I mentioned I have had a Personal Gethsemane, not once, but two times, both quite different.  They are extremely personal, and I will not go into them here.  Only some family members know, and not even some of whom are my dearest friends.  Some deep problems are very personal, and some are known by many people, and perhaps are mentioned in the media!  They are as diverse as our lives are! But I do know the only thing that allowed me to keep my faith, courage, and personal self control to go on with normal life was our Savior, Jesus Christ, and the comfort I felt from prayer, and yes -- Personal Priesthood blessings. ...

993. Are We Ever Released from the Responsibilities of Parenting? By Julie de Azevedo Hanks · January 16, 2018, in Meridian Magazine

These are great thoughts, and very wise! Are We Ever Released from the Responsibilities of Parenting? By Julie de Azevedo Hanks  · January 16, 2018 We’ve heard phrases like “parenting is a calling from which you are never released [i] , [ii] ” over the pulpit many times, but rarely do we actually reflect on what this means. When taken literally, that it’s a parent’s job to continue to be their child’s caretaker throughout their lives, this belief can create enmeshed families with weak boundaries that undermine the adult child’s agency. Here are some ideas to consider about the danger of parents who are overly involved with their adult children and adult children who don’t fully transition into an adult role. Intrusive Parents   Too often, this belief of eternal parenthood is used to justify a parent giving constant (often unsolicited) input or criticism into an adult child’s life decisions. Does never being released from parenthood mea...
