We are each working out our own salvation
with fear and trembling before the Lord. And
that gift will come to us only if we know in our
hearts that we deserve it no more than anyone
else. The truth is, we are all, each of us, equally
damned without the mercy of the Lord. Eternal
life is a gift. I have no cause to feel entitled. I
have cause only to feel grateful.

I had an interesting experience in the Salt Lake temple 2 weeks ago. I've been mulling it over in my mind ever since. I've been trying to figure out what it means and how to share it. And maybe it's too personal. So instead, I'll have you find joy in this picture....
And say, "Dont be left behind."
Work hard to stay close to all those that you love.
I know that the alternative is to be greatly avoided.
I'm feel sure the effort expended will be worth it!!

Wow, I never realize how far behind I've gotten in the blogging world until I come back and try to catch up on your blog. ;) Then I truly feel like I did fall off the face of the earth for the month of August!
How could you have been up north what seems like so many times and we still missed you?! Yikes! Looks like it was a good month though.
So if Justus is your only "chickie" right now, where is good ole Bri-dog these days? Did he make it to Alaska after all? ;)
Miss you guys. I'm hoping we'll be coming down for a visit in the next couple weeks. I'll be in touch so we can try to catch everyone there.
