   Update!
John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

^_^
The most important thing to remember.

Fact of the day:
Hummingbirds do drink nectar (or its substitute, boiled sugar water--not caramelized) and they also eat insects. They don't just subsist on sugar water.

   Hi-za.
God be with you, and believe in your divinity as His child. We all have potential, so we have great worth. We are the rocks that contain a diamond more precious than any found in this world. Work to show that beautiful diamond, with the help of our Lord God, the Creator.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 Nephi 15:14-15
And at that day shall the remnant of our seed know that they are of the house of Israel, and that they are the covenant people of the Lord; and then shall they know and come to the knowledge of their forefathers, and also to the knowledge of the gospel of their Redeemer, which was ministered unto their fathers by him; wherefore, they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer and the very points of his doctrine, that they may know how to come unto him and be saved.
And then at that day will they not rejoice and give praise unto their everlasting God, their rock and their salvation? Yea, at that day, will they not receive the strength and nourishment from the true vine? Yea, will they not come unto the true fold of God?


God loves us, so He shows us what path is safe and leads to salvation--an eternal life of joy.

Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.

Deuteronomy 6:5
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

Fact of the day: A pound cake is called that because, originally, a pound of each ingredient was used.

This fact of the day is thanks to my dad. ^_^

Deut. 6
3 Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
[...]
10 And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,
11 And houses full of all good things[...]and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
12 Then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
[...]
20 And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD our God hath commanded you?
21 Then thou shalt say unto thy son, We were Pharaoh’s bondmen in Egypt; and the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand:
[...]
23 And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers.
24 And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

And serve the Lord God, rememebr His goodness for you and that He will bless you forever, even with an eternal life of joy. He love us and wants us all to return to Him. Serve Him.

Remember God and Jesus Christ's love and sacrifice. Seek Their Holy Spirit. Please. May They be with you, always. They will be. Love. Take care.

   Hi! ^_^ Thoughts for the day.
Sorry, guys. I had trouble posting yesterday, hence the multiple posts which are now fixed. This will just be really quick. Sorry, no fact.

Please help the genocide victims in Darfur.

Appreciation:
Cia-chan and LadyLenaJade, who are kind to me

Jesus Christ is the good news--His resurrection that makes a good eternity possible. That's the purpose of the Testaments--New, Old, Book of Mormon, and other scriptures. God be with you, and Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, and Their love.

Hugs and pocket-hug packets!

Hi, everyone.
Here's me, posting again, but a shorter post. It didn't show up the first time. u.u

1 Nephi 5:8-9, 20-22
And she spake, saying: Now I know of a surety that the Lord hath commanded my husband to flee into the wilderness; yea, and I also know of a surety that the Lord hath protected my sons, and delivered them out of the hands of Laban, and given them power whereby they could accomplish the thing which the Lord hath commanded them. And after this manner of language did she speak.
And it came to pass that they did rejoice exceedingly[...] and they gave thanks unto the God of Israel.
[...]
And it came to pass that thus far I and my father had kept the commandments wherewith the Lord had commanded us.
And we had obtained the records which the Lord had commanded us, and searched them and found that they were desirable; yea, even of great worth unto us, insomuch that we could preserve the commandments of the Lord unto our children.
Wherefore, it was wisdom in the Lord that we should carry them with us, as we journeyed in the wilderness towards the land of promise.

Fact of the day: (at least in general) Big cats have round pupils and cannot pur. Little cats have split pupils, and I think they can't roar.

This fact of the day is provided by Zoobooks. ^_^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Trust in the Lord our God, our fortress and our strength. We need to help each other, but we are humans and make mistakes. We need to forgive each other, too. But they Lord is always able, and always willing, to help us if we will accept His help. You can't always see it, but He will always be there for you. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ be with you. Hugs and love.

Glompies!

K-C: Here are your pocket hugs, for whenever you need them. Have a good day.

Xihuitl: Love you all. Bye! ^_^

   Doctrine & Covenants 47
John Whitmer had not sought an appointment as historian, but, being asked to serve in this capacity, he had said that he would obey the will of the Lord in the matter.
4 Wherefore, it shall be given him, inasmuch as he is faithful, by the Comforter, to write these things. Even so. Amen.


Inspirational Thoughts, by President Gordon B. Hinckley, Ensign, March 2006
Believe in God

Believe in God. Believe in God the Eternal Father. He is the great Governor of the universe, but He is our Father and our God to whom we may go in prayer. We are His sons and daughters. Have you ever really thought that you were a child of God and that you have something of divinity within you?
[...]
Believe in Jesus Christ. . . . He is the Son of God, who came to earth, who left the royal courts on high and came and dwelt among men and gave His life for each of us, for you and for me. It is through Him that we approach the Father. Be not faithless, but believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior and the Redeemer of the world

For all homes, future and present, we must do our best, even when it is hard, as it so often is. Even if our home isn't perfect now, we will be able to have a good and perfect home in the eternities if we do our best and trust in the Lord and God. ^_^

"We are responsible for the home we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage."

Exodus 34:10
And he said, Behold, I make a covenant[...]

1 Nephi 8:10-12
And it came to pass that I beheld a tree, whose fruit was desirable to make one happy.
And it came to pass that I did go forth and partake of the fruit thereof; and I beheld that it was most sweet, above all that I ever before tasted. Yea, and I beheld that the fruit thereof was white, to exceed all the whiteness that I had ever seen.
And as I partook of the fruit thereof it filled my soul with exceedingly great joy; wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also; for I knew that it was desirable above all other fruit.

1 Nephi 11:25
And it came to pass that I beheld that the rod of iron, which my father had seen, was the word of God, which led to the fountain of living waters, or to the tree of life; which waters are a representation of the love of God; and I also beheld that the tree of life was a representation of the love of God.

God's commandments keep us on the path to salvation, which is His wish because He loves us and wants us to have eternal salvation, the best version of life.

   Hello this fine morning.
"And this is My work and My glory, to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man."

God and Jesus Christ and Their love and Holy Ghost be with you.

Well, here I am, up way to late, but here all the same.

Love, and God and Jesus Christ bless you.

Doctrine & Covenants 93:45-46
Verily, I say unto my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., or in other words, I will call you friends, for you are my friends, and ye shall have an inheritance with me—
I called you servants for the world’s sake, and ye are their servants for my sake—

1 Nephi 8:14-16
And I looked to behold from whence it came; and I saw the head thereof a little way off; and at the head thereof I beheld your mother Sariah, and Sam, and Nephi; and they stood as if they knew not whither they should go.
And it came to pass that I beckoned unto them; and I also did say unto them with a loud voice that they should come unto me, and partake of the fruit, which was desirable above all other fruit.
And it came to pass that they did come unto me and partake of the fruit also.



God be with you! Love and hugs and pocket hugs. ^_^

Fact of the day: The ancient Egyptians used to use mirrors to reflect light into tunnels, etc. It is a very handy trick, and it makes rooms brighter if you have to rely on lanterns in a blackout. My parents put mirrors behind a couple lanterns during a blackout, and it did make a noticeable difference, even if it wasn't actually much more light.


Love, hugs, pocket-hugs, glomps, and God and Jesus Christ and Their Holy Ghost be with you. Take care!

And after this manner of language did she speak.
And it came to pass that they did rejoice exceedingly[...] and they gave thanks unto the God of Israel.
And after they had given thanks unto the God of Israel, my father, Lehi, took the records which were engraven upon the plates of brass, and he did search them from the beginning.
And he beheld that they did contain the five books of Moses, which gave an account of the creation of the world, and also of Adam and Eve, who were our first parents;
And also a record of the Jews from the beginning, even down to the commencement of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah;
[...]
And it came to pass that thus far I and my father had kept the commandments wherewith the Lord had commanded us.

   Hi!
God blesses us with intelligence--the opportunity to learn and understand. We must do our best according to our knowledge, seek out further knowledge, and help each other to that further knowledge.

Doctrine & Covenants 59:5
Wherefore, I give unto them a commandment, saying thus: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy might, mind, and strength; and in the name of Jesus Christ thou shalt serve him.

Doctrine & Covenants 20:37
And again, by way of commandment to the church concerning the manner of baptism—All those who humble themselves before God, and desire to be baptized, and come forth with broken hearts and contrite spirits, and witness before the church that they have truly repented of all their sins, and are willing to take upon them the name of Jesus Christ, having a determination to serve him to the end, and truly manifest by their works that they have received of the Spirit of Christ unto the remission of their sins, shall be received by baptism into his church.

Doctrine & Covenants 4:2, 4-7
Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day.
[...]
For behold the field is white already to harvest; and lo, he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul;
And faith, hope, charity and love, with an eye single to the glory of God, qualify him for the work.
Remember faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, brotherly kindness, godliness, charity, humility, diligence.
Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Amen.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Again, thanks to everyone who participated in the masquerade, and to everyone who put up with me long enough to look at it at all! Don't worry, Night_Shade2--I'm just glad to have you here. ^_^

Love to you all. By the way, Kurama-clone is in the kitchen talking to my mini yellow rose, and Xihuitl is off with Kahn. Kyo-clone is hiding in a tree, and Haru-clone...well, I'm not sure where he is. I hope he didn't get lost again.

~Hi, Equus-chan.~

Sano! (glomp) Sano, sweetie, would you help me look for Haru-clone? I haven't seen him for a few hours, and I'm afraid he's lost.

~Again? Sure, Equus. Come on.~

Thank you! (kisses him on the cheek) And here are your hugs and pocket hugs, everyone. Remember, God and Jesus Christ do love you!

God and His Spirit, and Jesus Christ's love and hope, be with you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fact of the day: In real life, cloning is much more difficult because DNA has a certain life-span of its own. If I remember correctly, it has certain end codes which break off or disintegrate, or something, everytime to cell and its DNA replicate and split. So clones of adult DNA are clones of older DNA. Weird, huh?

God bless you and be with you. Hugs and pocket hugs!

Glomp!

1 Nephi 7:22
