Thought Power!

Okay ..... This Post basically is the essence of my blogs.

A little background.

I started my blog so I could post my thoughts and think through them. Also I wanted to pose questions that I am contemplating and hope that I would get comments to help broaden my thinking and my thoughts. hence the disclaimer that they may be potentially "Adult" theme posts.

So with that on to my post....

I have been reading the Miracle of Forgiveness by Spencer W. Kimball. (Great Book So far). There is a section that talks about Thoughts. It starts out talking about todays (which actually back in the 1980's) technology that allows one to Eave's Drop on another conversation from 50 yards away, or devices to monitor thought patterns and analyze dreams as well as several other devices. To this point He states a question. One that I have never thought of before but once mentioned, it was like No Duh! His question was if we as mortal beings have the ability to do these things then why can't God with all of his omnipotent power not being limited by the mortal body.

He then asks another question, How does God hear your prayers? You know the ones you only think in your mind. The he qoutes a scripture that basically states that the Angels are recording everything, yes even your thoughts! Whoa! So If Man can hear my thoughts (to a degree, at least as I know), and God and His Angels can, Why not Lucifer? That is right. I believe that in the millineum when Satan is bound because He will have no effect on us. It will be because we (or our children) will control their thoughts.

Okay, My wife had a very interesting and special experience a couple of weeks ago, and since it is Her experience, I can not share the details. However since part of Her experience is My experience I can share you my part. My wife was struggling, while She was struggling she had two people add to Her Frustrations. That week was a long one for the entire family. Finally we sat down together to discuss it as She was at a breaking point. When I pointed out that Satan knows what is going on and what is important to Her, don't you think that he is going to do everything he can to pull you away from the light? Yep. When She realized this and recognize the adversary hands in the events. She then turned to God and saw how we was there also and Her thoughts changed. The adversary and his angels no longer had effect on Her. I witnessed this. It was amazing!

Satan is real! And he has lost everything and the only thing he wants now is for you to loose everything. How selfish is that. In our last Stake conference meeting one of the speakers made an awesome statement. "Satan doesn't have a family, so he wants yours. Don't Let him!"

Your thoughts are powerful!!! Make sure they are clean and pure and righteous!

Game Night!!!! (Invite)

Hey Everyone, if you know us you know we love to play games. Soooo we have been trying to have game nights where we invite people over, but then we feel like some get left out. So I am going to try this a little differently, if it works out then you can keep an eye on my blog to find out when we are doing another one.

So here is your official Invite (not personal I know but still an invite for you)

This Friday October 10 at 6:00PM @ my House (what?!? You don't know where I live, well then you may need to contact me for directions)

We are game addicts so we have a pretty good selection of games, but please feel free to bring any games you don't think we have.

Also if you could bring a snack to share that would be great.

Hope to see you there.

Oh yeah bring your kids, it gets crazy sometimes but it lets the kids have some fun with other kids.
