Started our morning walks with Bryce. 6:30 wakeup and walk around
the neighborhood and trail behind the condos. It was great to get up.
Perfect way to start the day and jump start on the important things.
Our goal is to do it every morning, especially once chemo starts. Bryce
said he'll walk as slow as he has to (which is saying a lot) :).
Seminary
with the kids this morning was about Daniel refusing the king's meat and the word of
wisdom. It's amazing how our seminary lessons have been
the lessons I needed most. (The last two weeks were courageous stories about about David & Goliath and
Esther.) :) The Lord knows me! I have such a
testimony that as we try to serve others, the Lord ends up blessing us
through that same service. As I was bearing testimony to the
kids about the word of wisdom and promising that following it will help us
have healthy bodies, I thought to myself - what about me? I've
followed the word of wisdom and where is my promise of help? Just as
fast, the answer came. And Taylor without knowing the thoughts in my
head shared it just as I was finishing the same thought. "Mom, your
body will be strong to fight your cancer." How grateful I am for the
testimony of my young boy. And how grateful I am for the promises of
the word of wisdom and temple covenants that keep our minds and bodies
healthy and receptive to the Spirit.
