Signed, sealed, delivered......Sis E
& I are homies for at least 6 more weeks! We were both a little sad, as we
are ready to spread our wings and grow in different areas with different
companions but, our love for each other may be so strong that our bond just
wasn't ready to be broken yet ;)
It's SUPER cold and I miss the AZ
sun like mad! We go weekly to lay in the tanning bed....a brownie tanning,
crazy right?! We need the vitamin D it gives us.....I'm sure this is a touchy subject
with some - slow your roll....it's not very often and this chicken little ain't
seen NO real sun in a while! Sis E makes Casper look tan!
I had this whole "thing"
typed up to send....maybe another day - after getting the video of Piper trying
to sing "Till We Meet Again" I thought about the words of that hymn,
sang them, thought about the many times they've touched my life.....
God be with you till we meet again;
By his counsels guide, uphold you;
With his sheep securely fold you.
God be with you till we meet again
By his counsels guide, uphold you;
With his sheep securely fold you.
God be with you till we meet again
God be with you till we meet again;
When life's perils thick confound you,
Put his arms unfailing round you.
God be with you till we meet again
When life's perils thick confound you,
Put his arms unfailing round you.
God be with you till we meet again
God be with you till we meet again;
Keep love's banner floating o'er you;
Smite death's threat'ning wave before you.
God be with you till we meet again.
Keep love's banner floating o'er you;
Smite death's threat'ning wave before you.
God be with you till we meet again.
[Chorus]
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus' feet,
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus' feet,
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again
Sometimes words are just words, we
sing them, say them, recite them and leave them there hanging in the air as a
faceless, lifeless form to be picked up and reused when next we need them.
These words....Till we meet, Till we
meet at Jesus' feet, God be with you till we meet again....they are so much
more than just words...
When is again, after breakfast?
After school? After vacation? After my mission? After this life? Till we meet again....at first they brought me
sorrow as I thought of my grandfather and then I was instantly filled with joy,
as I thought of him...it's not goodbye, it really is until we meet again...the
unending blessing of knowing that no matter the context as long as I live as my
Father has asked me to.....it will always be "Till we meet again!" I am so grateful for Eternal Families! My
lesson this week is, live like there's no tomorrow so when we are at our judgment
day we can receive the many blessings we have been promised, if we have followed
our Heavenly Fathers plan. Do not put off repentance, do not put off church
attendance, do not postpone scripture study, do not hold out forgiveness - do today
what you have left undone, we are not promised tomorrow to set our course
straight....
Family and Friends I love you all
and pray for you daily. Don't forget about me, Till we meet again!
XOXO
