   Hi-za hi. ^_^
Heavenly Fahter and Jesus Christ are real and truly love us. Follow Them, and you will find peace and joy in this life and the next--the one true way to be happy in eternity, and with you loved ones. Read Their words, Their scriptures. In my Lord Jesus Christ's holy name, amen.

Read on, please. ^_^

"In our hearts do we feel a sense of gratitude and devotion to the Father? Are we of one heart with Him to whom we owe everything? The test of our devotion to the Lord seems to be the way we serve Him."
~Elder L. Tom Perry, Ensign, Nov. 1998, 74


Numbers 15:13-16
All that are born of the country shall do these things after this manner, in offering an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
And if a stranger sojourn with you, or whosoever be among you in your generations, and will offer an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD; as ye do, so he shall do.
One ordinance shall be both for you of the congregation, and also for the stranger that sojourneth with you, an ordinance for ever in your generations: as ye are, so shall the stranger be before the LORD.
One law and one manner shall be for you, and for the stranger that sojourneth with you.

Numbers 15:22-29
22 ¶ And if ye have erred, and not observed all these commandments, which the LORD hath spoken unto Moses,
23 Even all that the LORD hath commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day that the LORD commanded Moses, and henceforward among your generations;
24 Then it shall be, if ought be committed by ignorance without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bullock for a burnt offering, for a sweet savour unto the LORD, with his meat offering, and his drink offering, according to the manner•, and one kid of the goats for a sin offering.
25 And the priest shall make an atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and it shall be bforgiven them; for it is ignorance: and they shall bring their offering, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD, and their sin offering before the LORD, for their ignorance:
26 And it shall be forgiven all the congregation of the children of Israel, and the stranger that sojourneth among them; seeing all the people were in ignorance.
27 ¶ And if any soul sin through ignorance, then he shall bring a she goat of the first year for a sin offering.
28 And the priest shall make an atonement for the soul that sinneth ignorantly, when he sinneth by ignorance before the LORD, to make an atonement for him; and it shall be forgiven him.
29 Ye shall have one law for him that sinneth through ignorance, both for him that is born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them.

There is one way that works for everyone. "Every [one] has different circumstances, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ covers them all." Paraphrase from a General Authority at a previous General Conference. Read up on it. It's true.

Update

Xihuitl: Equus has less than two weeks to clean her room--well, at least straighten it up--before her friend Jusea comes.

Equus runs around anime-cleaning. The image turns to dust.

Xihuitl: Can you tell how well she's doing at this?

Equus: ^^; Heh.

Kurama-clone: Miss Equus, wasn't your room supposed to be cleaned as a Christmas present to your mother?

Equus: meep

Kakashi-clone: Christmas? For 2005 or 2006?

Kyo-clone: 2005.

Equus slinks into a corner, curls up, and hides. Xihuitl stomps over, grabs the back of Equus's shirt with her teeth, and drags the girl out.

Xihuitl: If you're going to sulk, you can do it while you clean your room.

Equus: Yes'm.

Xihuitl: Thanks for your well-wishes, guys. Equus's upcoming visitor is one of her absolute best friends from college. Refi-chan knows her. She's never been to a Highland Festival. CTRNikkiM (hugs!) commented about Highland Festivals. What are they? They can also be called Highland Games, or at least part of them--where men (mostly) participate in traditional Highland sports. These are heavy-weight athletics, like the hammer toss and the caber toss (where they throw a small telephone-type pole). At festivals, there are also dancing and bagpiping competitions, musical performances, and booths for clan, history, and shopping. Fests are lots of fun. They also tend to have sheepdog demonstrations generally featuring Border collies, which our Mudpie and Blue are. ^_^ And thankee, kuraiangel and katocool, as well.

Fact of the Day

Cacti have massive root systems (relatively speaking) that lie very close to the ground surface and cover a large area, compared to plants with deeper-reaching tap roots, etc. Plants, and animals, utilize their abilities for certain situations.

Hasn't our God created a marvelous universe, in its vastness and beauty?

Love, hugs, and pocket hugs. Take care, and may you recognize God our Heavenly Father's and Jesus Christ's love. Glomps! ^_^ Faith!

Always feel free to ask questions. ^_^ Just ask politely, please. ^.~ Love and hugs, friends.
