New Beginnings

    More snowiness today.  Even when it's not a huge storm dropping inches of snow everywhere, we've had a fair few days where it's just lightly snowing.  I had lunch with Jonathan up at his new building, and you can really see the snow fall as you look out across the valley.  I should have taken a picture of that, but settled for this (terrible!) picture looking up into Parley's Canyon.


Tonight was New Beginnings for the Young Women.  As Leiden turns 12 this year (!), she was invited and introduced to the other young women and leaders.  I am SO excited for her to be able to participate.  The theme this year, as she enters is from James 1:5-6, which reads, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.  But let him ask in faith nothing wavering.  For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed."  Such wonderful scriptures, and so often verse 6 is left out of the discussion...let him ask in FAITH.  We ask, then we have the faith to listen to the answer.  To wait for the answer.  To accept the answer.  It was a wonderful night, where the spirit was felt in abundance.  She's pretty excited, too!
