So I was in a really bad mood. Lots of unimportant and trivial things had conspired to leave me annoyed, irritated and all around in a bad mood. I read the blog of a friend from high school and it changed all that. She is an amazing woman with something real to say. She and her husband have struggled with infertility and have adopted a baby and hope to adopt another one in September. She is a strong advocate of adoption and speaks with power about it. If you are having a down day, read her blog. It it amazing.

Here is a quote from Michael Wilcox, a faculty member of the institute program.
brother wilcox gave a glimpse into what he was feeling as his granddaughters were sealed to their parents. sitting in the witness chair, the Spirit whispered to him,"do you understand the power of the temple? can you see the power of the priesthood? birth can give a child parents for time, only the temple can give a child for eternity."

My cousin and his wife just had their second adopted child sealed to them on Friday and it's so amazing to me to see how much those two little ones belong to my cousin. It's just a different way of coming, but it's so great to see how Heavenly Father works!! thanks for the quote, it's so great!
Leave it to the Spirit to lift a bad mood. Imagine that. Why is it so hard to remember that?!
thanks - I needed that. It sounded like you obviously did too! Sorry you had a bad day. Want some cookie dough with me?
