   Zzzzzz.........
“Wherefore, if ye shall be obedient to the commandments, and endure to the end, ye shall be saved at the last day. And thus it is” (1 Ne. 22:31).
“Be patient in afflictions, for thou shalt have many; but endure them, for, lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days” (D&C 24:8).
“Behold, we count them happy which endure” (James 5:11).
Examples of faithfully enduring to the end are taught by prophets of all ages as they demonstrate courage while enduring trials and tribulations to carry forth the will of God. Our greatest example comes from the life of our Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ.[...]
Often we do not know what we can endure until after a trial of our faith.
~ Elder Robert D. Hales, "Behold, We Count Them Happy Which Endure", Ensign, May 1998, 76

And the Lord will be with us through those trials.

An interesting thing I read....

Q: What is the shortest chapter in the Bible?
A: Psalms 117
Q: What is the longest chapter in the Bible?
A: Psalms 119
Q: Which chapter is in the center of the Bible?
A: Psalms 118
Fact: There are 594 chapters before Psalms 118
Fact: There are 594 chapters after Psalms 118
Add these numbers up and you get 1188.
Q: What is the center verse in the Bible?
A: Psalms 118:8
"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."

Psalms 55:22 "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee. He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved."
And remember--prayer "is the first, the middle, and the last thing to do." We can truly talk with our Heavenly Father, because He listens, loves us, and responds through His Holy Spirit. His answers may not come in the time and way we expect, but His Spirit will assure us of His presence and love when we have faith. Stay true. ^_^

Friend of the day: Skyelark! Who actually hasn't been on in a while. u.u Where are you, Skyelark?

Xihuitl: And Equus will be going to get ready for bed, since she has once again deprived herself of so much sleep that, combined with poor eating habits, she was not terribly well today.

Equus: -.-

Kurama #3: Miss Equus?

Equus: zzzz

Xihuitl: *sigh* Get her on my back, Kurama #3, and we'll get her somewhere to sleep other than the computer chair. Thanks to Night Shade2 and Refi-chan. Hope you like the beavers, Refi. They like to read. And as for a Cadfael, it's actually the main character of a book series, a set of medieval murder mysteries. Cadfael (said "cad-file") is a Welshman, a roughly 60-year Benedectine monk. Bye, all. We love you.

Kyo-clone: Here are your pocket hugs for the day, certified cat-free.

Psalm 7: 1, 7, 10
O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
[...]
So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
[...]
My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

Fact of the day: Cats have an amazing ability to track your line of site and sit on the page or section of paper you happen to be concentrating on. (personal experience...>.> XD)

Love, hugs, and God loves you. May you feel His love and guidance. God bless.
