Adoption- Abortion- Right to Life

I watched about special video about adoption.  One part discussed abortion and was interviewing women on both sides.  I loved what one said.  We will go to war to protect lives and freedom but some women will not lay down their lives for nine months to protect the life of their unborn child, which they then can put up for adoption.



Can you lay down your life,
For just nine months?
Let the babe stay alive.
Think of his wants!



Adoption is a beautiful thing!

Rising in Hope and Joy- Jesus Lives to Lift

How on earth does a glider rise to soar the sky?

I inquire, "when and how?" for I would like to try

Find the rising air and stay within it's lift

Learn to sense the sink of a downward drift

Then, thoughts come, "I can spiritually soar

I can see glorious things and explore!

Under the influence of the holy ghost

I can steer to where I feel the lift the most!"

I can follow others uplifted in joy

And lead another so they may enjoy

I can heed the warning of a slow descent

Sense, spiritually, and turn where the lift is sent

As sure as the wind can lift a glider wing

We have the spirit, what blessings it does bring

Even to know our Savior and His love He is offering

[Verse 1] How does a glider rise and soar above the land? I ask, “When and how?” and hope to understand. Find the rising air and hold within its lift; Learn to feel the downward pull, the sinking drift. [Verse 2] Then comes a thought: “I, too, can spiritually soar; See glorious things, discover evermore. Under the influence of the Holy Ghost, I’ll steer toward the place where I can feel the lift the most.” [Chorus] I can follow those uplifted into joy, And lead another, so they may enjoy. I’ll heed the warning when the path descends, Sense the Spirit’s guidance, turn where rising air begins. [Verse 3] As surely as the wind can raise a glider’s wing, The Spirit brings its blessings, steady as a spring. We come to know our Savior, and the love He freely gives; In His grace, our hearts take flight, and hope within us lives. [Final Chorus] I can follow those uplifted into joy, And lead another, so they may enjoy. I’ll heed the warning when the path descends, Sense the Spirit’s guidance, turn where rising air begins. We come to know our Savior, and the love He freely gives; In His grace, our hearts take flight, and hope within us lives.

The Deepest Wound

@Victoriawrites2

·

Oct 11 : if you're going through a hard thing, give it up to the Lord, and He will bless you. Maybe not right away, and maybe not in a way you think, but the blessings will come. He said this is your chance to start over and have a brand-new life, and I feel like he was looking right at me when he said that. It was as if he was speaking directly to my soul.

The Lord knows I've gone through hard things. It took me months to finally have a testimony, convert, and become a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was a hard journey. I didn't want to disappoint my family or my friends, but I did it because I finally knew it was true. I'm so glad I did.

You help the Lord bring in "the one" Not knowing what they'll become Or what their trials will teach them Now, or on some distant sun Feeling great anguish and concern Over what they will do in their pain In this hour, is it the Lord to whom they'll turn Or will they raise a fist to the heavens in blame Know this: the most exquisitely painful experience Can, in time and growing understanding, teach you of love Of the Savior's great and infinite atonement And become, ironically, your richest blessing from above For, one day, you'll be flying blissfully along With the excruciating pain now gone And see it led you, with faith, to a beautiful place After a trial that was incredibly long Was it the humility, faith, prayer and trust That softened you unto the depths of surrender As your feet on the covenant path can barley trudge Laboriously, yet steadily, accepting what life does render? Know this: the most exquisitely painful experience Can, in time and growing understanding, teach you of love Of the Savior's great and infinite atonement And become, ironically, your richest blessing from above

[Verse 1] You help the Lord bring in the one Not knowing what they’ll become Or what their trials will teach them Now, or on some distant sun [Verse 2] You feel the ache of wondering What they’ll do inside their pain In this hour, will they turn to God Or raise a fist and curse the rain? [Chorus] The deepest wound can teach you love In time, through all you’re passing through The Savior’s infinite atonement Can make a blessing bloom in you [Verse 3] One day you’ll fly through kinder skies With all that excruciating pain gone Faith will have led you to a beautiful place After a trial that seemed so long [Bridge] Was it humility, faith, and prayer The trust that steadied every step? When covenant paths grew hard to tread You kept on walking, though you wept [Final Chorus] The deepest wound can teach you love In time, through all you’re passing through The Savior’s infinite atonement Can make a blessing bloom in you [Outro] One day you’ll see the beauty there And know you were carried through

Surrender- Even of Your Last

If surrender means; 

To give back over

Then to God I do

Over and over

In a war with myself-

The natural man,

Oft I refuse His help

Convinced that I can

Then, spent, I surrender

I see the fool I am

My humbled heart is made tender

And I am thankful, I can

Think of the widow's mite

Who gave up all she had

She surrendered in spite

Of her situation being bad

Even of your last

Offer to give it up

Blessed with trust and faith

The gift of love is enough

Picture the widow of  Zarephath

With a child, she gave up her last meal

All, because Elijah, the prophet asked

Think how that surrender would feel

All that we have and are

Comes from God above

We are meant to journey far

His plan is one of love

Even of your last

Offer to give it up

Blessed with trust and faith

The gift of love is enough

[Verse 1] If surrender means to give back over, Then to God I do, over and over. In a war with myself, the natural man, Oft I refuse His help, convinced that I can. [Pre-Chorus] Then spent, I surrender; I see the fool I am. My humbled heart is made tender, And thankful, here I stand. [Verse 2] Think of the widow's mite, Who gave up all she had. She surrendered in spite Of her situation being bad. [Chorus] Even of your last, Offer to give it up. Blessed with trust and faith, The gift of love is enough. [Verse 3] Picture the widow of Zarephath, With a child, she gave her last meal. All because Elijah, the prophet, asked— Think how that surrender would feel. [Bridge] All that we have and are Comes from God above. We are meant to journey far; His plan is one of love. [Chorus] Even of your last, Offer to give it up. Blessed with trust and faith, The gift of love is enough. [Outro] Over and over, I give it back; For love is enough, His love is enough.

Sister Kearon spoke in a devotional in the UK, Oct 2026. It was a tender moment for her. This building was the one she heard Elder Kearon speak at for the first time. She thought, "I have six months..." Weeks passed, she introduced herself and he invited her to his place for dinner- well a group, anyways. That was the start. Her lesson was based on hearing a song:  "I surrender".  Well, here is her song.  ☺
