Weirdness in Fasting

So weird story....

On Sunday I was fasting about something.  There are some changes that I need to make in my life and I was fasting about that.  Then it hit me.  Something TOTALLY unrelated to what I was fasting about smacked me in the face.  Out of the blue the spirit told me something so strongly and so suddenly that it honestly took me a moment to regain my thought process. 

Of course Lee was out of town so there was nobody to discuss my randomness with.  

Funny story...My BFF text me today and told me that the missionaries stopped by her house and her husband who was outside told them they weren't interested.  My friend told him that he should have let them in that she had dishes that needed to be done.  I have told her several times that missionaries need to do service and she of all people needs it.  

Of all the things I have done wrong in my life.  I feel this friendship is one of the right things I have done.  I am not sure they will ever become Mormon but I think me along with my family have hopefully given my friend hope that there is good Mormons out there. She hasn't had experience with alot of good non-judging LDS people.

This week was a Struggle

Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
