Estas dispuesto tu?
Joseph Smith: Praise the Man
He gave his life for the Gospel,....Would you?......I read something this morning that made me think. Giving up our lives for the gospel is the easy part. But are we willing to LIVE the Gospel?....Day by day are we willing to make that sacrifice?.....Joseph smith gave his life for the Gospel....His death just sealed his testimony. it did not make it......Joseph smith did many great things and we should always look at him as an example as well as many of the pioneers. So now ask yourself....are YOU willing to LIVE the Gospel?......Dying for the Gospel is the easy step......Living it is the true test......Are WE willing to Live the Gospel?......

Quote of the Day: Richard G. Scott
"The inspiring influence of the Holy Spirit can be overcome or masked by strong emotions, ie: anger, hate, passion, fear, or pride. When such influences are present, it's like trying to savor the delicate flavor of a grape while eating a jalapeño pepper. Both flavors are present, but one completely overpowers the other. In like manner, strong emotions overcome the delicate promptings of the Holy Spirit." R. G. Scott

Scripture Mastery/Dominio del las escrituras
Snow,...Snow,...And More Snow!!!!
This is what we woke up to This Morning!!!! And it is still going! My kids are so excited of course there was no school today,...Unfortunately my Hubby had to go to work.....
Asi amanecio esta Mañana....Y aun no a dejado de Nevar! Mis hijos claro que estan felices ya que no hubo escuela, pero mi pobre esposo tube que ir a trabajar.....
Something to think about!....El jarron de Mayonesa!
The Mayonnaise Jar
When things in your life seem, almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.
(Cuando sientes que las cosas de la vida son demasiadas difficiles,
Cuando 24 horas en un dia no son sufficiente,
Recuerda el Jarron de Mayonesa y las dos tazas de Cafe.)
A professor stood before his philosophy class
and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
( Un profesor se pare delante su clase de filosofia y tenia unas cuantas cosas frente a el.
Levanto un jarron grande de mayonesa vacio y procedio a llenarlo con pelotas de golf.)
He then asked the students, if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
(Despues les pregunto a sus estudiantes si el jarron estaba lleno.
Todos coincidieron que si estaba lleno)
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls..
( despues el profesor recogio una caja llena de piedritas y las hecho en el jarron.
lo meneo un poco , las piedritas rodaron y se acomodaron entre las pelotas de golf)
He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
( una vez mas pregunto el profesor,.."esta lleno el jarron"...todos coincidieron que si.)
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'
( Ahora levanto una caja llena de arena y la hecho adentro del jarron. Claro que la arena lleno lo que quedabe de espacio en el jarron. Y pregunto nuevamente " esta lleno el jarron?"...Los estudiantes una vez mas coincidieron que si.)
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed..
( Despues el profesor produjo dos tazas de cafe de abajo de la mesa y lo hecho dentro del jarron, effectivamente lleno el espacio que quedaba entre la arena. Los estudiantes se rieron...)
'Now,' said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - family,
children, health, Friends, and Favorite passions –
Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, Your life would still be full.
( Ahora, dijo el profesor, a medida que la risa bajaba, Quiero que reconoscan que este jarron representa su vida. Las pelotas de Golf son cosas importantes como la familia, hijos, amigos, salud, cosas que si perdieramos todo lo demas, nuestras vidas aun estarian llenas.)
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.
( Las piedritas son las coasa que nos importan como nuestro trabajo, casa, y carro)
The sand is everything else --The small stuff.
( La arena es todo lo demas- las cosas pequeñas,)
'If you put the sand into the jar first,' He continued,
there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls..
The same goes for life.
( Si ponemos la arena en el jarron primero, continuo, no habra espacio para las piedritas o las pelotas de golf. Lo mismo es con nuestras vidas.)
If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are important to you.
Si pasamos todo nuestro tiempo y energia en las cosas pequeñas, nunca tendermos espacio para las cosas que realmente son importante para nosotros.
So... Asi que,...
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
Prestemos attencion a las cosas que son essenciales para nuestra delicidad
Jugar con nuestros hijos
tomar tiempo para nuestra salud
salir a cenar con nuestra pareja....
There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.
Siempre habra tiempo para limpiar la casa o hacer otras cosas....
'Take care of the golf balls first --
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'
Debemos cuidar de las pelotas de golf primero
Las cosas que en verdad son importante
debemos organizar nuestras prioridades...lo demas es solamente arena...
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented....
Uno de los estudiantes levanto su mano y pregunto que significaba el cafe....
The professor smiled.
'I'm glad you asked'.
El profesor sonrio y dijo " Me alegro que hagas esa pregunta"
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
El cafe nos demuestra que no importa que tan llena este nuestra vida,
there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'
Siempre habra espacio para tomarse una taza de cafe con un buen amigo,....
Today's Thought!
( En un momento tan pequeño, Una obra Grande Y Maravillosa empezo...)
