Devotion by Elder Lisa Buday: Colossians 4:2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. We pray and we pray. Sometimes the answers are so obvious and sometimes the answers take years to realize that indeed, there was an answer. In the past I have kept a prayer journal. Many years of prayer vigil entries sometimes listed the same prayers: for work, for family, for health. At the present, I admit that I am not journaling but I follow our prayer chain and the p...rayer list from church. Today, I encourage each of us to take a moment and reflect on past prayers and current situations. Is that loved one know in recovery? Has a child found a soul mate? Is a grandchild the apple of your eye? Have you been able to forgive? Has the pain of grief lessened as you realize that death is in fact sometimes the healing that you prayed for? Take a moment to look back and to give thanks. Pray today: Oh God sometimes we ask and yet do not see the grace of your answers. Let me more clearly show my gratitude for answered prayers and the grace of how you answer my human requests. Amen. PS: This meme was shared on Emily’s Facebook page today. Emily had the courage to step into our church where she knew only one person to and sing and worship with us on Sunday. Thank you for coming! See more

Prayer & DevotionJessica Ellsworth, ElderJanuary 28, 2021 A pair of shoes I found myself not sure of what to write this week. I thought about what has had an impact on me over the past week, what has stuck out to me, what gave me the most emotion. Like a proud parent this week, I eagerly made a post to show off Princess’ new shoes. I just about had tears in my eyes thinking about how well she is going to be able to walk now. For those of you who don’t know, this is Princes...Continue reading
