So....I'm not really sure what I'm wanting to write about....just that I really feel like writing.
Isn't it funny how sometimes things just hit you and you're not really sure why or how? I'm sitting here listening to BYU radio and they have some instrumental music playing....right now it's "Faith in every footstep" and I'm called to reflect on my faith.....is it where it really needs to be. Do I have the faith necessary to __________ and then there are many words to fill in the blank. Right now it's "Do I have the faith necessary to help Jon get a job?" or "Do I have the faith necessary to carry on if Jon doesn't find a job?" or "Do I have enough faith to have patience until Heavenly Father provides us with children?"
Now the radio is playing a very nice arrangement to "Come Come ye Saints" Come come ye saints....no toil or labor fear.....now that's funny.....fear is the opposite of faith. So to truly have faith we need to not fear our labor's or toils....now that is much easier said then done!!!!! How does one go about truly not fearing.....not fearing the unknown, the "dark" places etc etc.....Goes back to having Faith, faith in Heavenly Father that He knows me and that he is truly mindful of me - EVERY aspect of me - why is that So hard for my to comprehend sometimes?
I have the opportunity to teach the 11 & 12 years olds in primary and the theme that has seemed to come up again and again is to be "steadfast and immovable" which I know has been a theme very much at the General level of the church....steadfast, immovable, having faith, not fearing......they all seem to go together don't they???
Well I guess I found my study topic for now....How can I be steadfast and immovable?
Thanks for listening.....I should be off to bed.

How is the job search going? Are you called as the 11/12 year old teacher or were you just filling in? Where are you living these days? Questions Questions!
We are coming to Edmonton on the 18th. Are you around? Would love to get together for a quick visit and meet your hubby if you guys are available.
Of course we are! why coming this far north?
We are coming up to hear my sister in law sing at a concert at GMCC. She has been taking music there and has a concert for her graduation. We have to be in Calgary for an appointment for Olivia on the Monday so we thought we would make a weekend trip of it. We are trying to get up there early Friday morning...I really need to go to the temple. I am soooooo depleted! We won't have a lot of time since we will be heading back to my Mom's afterwards but hopefully we can catch up with you guys. Do you work on Friday? Email me at tssalmon@telus.net and we'll see if we can work out some details.
