Thoughts and stories, by Pal

I am now moved in with my son and his wife in Bountiful, Utah!  I still need to unpack many things, but I feel so much at home here, and look forward to meeting many new friends, and having great experiences, along with keeping in touch with dear friends from my home town, St. George, Utah.

Here are a few spiritual thoughts for this beautiful Sabbath Day.  Today is our Ward Conference, and I'm sure we will hear some wonderful messages!  I will take notes and report on it later.  Happy Sabbath Day To You All! The first quote is from Pres. Joseph Fielding Smith.  I remember him, and his wife Jessie Evans Smith, who had a beautiful contralto voice.  He wrote the words to the hymn "Does the journey seem long?"  I'll quote the first verse here, # 127 in the hymn book. Does the journey seem long, The path rugged and steep? Are there briars and thorns on the way:  Do sharp stones cut your feet As you struggle to rise To the heights thru the heat of the day? He knew many problems in his lifetime, with 2 different wives passing away and leaving him with many children.
