Happy Anniversary--29 years today!

The first five years were amusing & necessary.
The next 5 years we worked hard to build our family.

The following 5, we "found our groove" & laughed allot.
Then, for five years we "sailed on through" facing everything together.

Finally, we frosted the cake with the final five; they were sweetest.
But, these past 5 have been the loneliest & the most difficult.

I miss you...

Ministering

I loved this article in the Ensign, and it made me think about ministering.
I encourage you to do the same:

In his personal ministry, President Monson has shown the difference between administering and ministering. Church members administer programs and ordinances, but they minister to individuals, loving them and coming to their relief. In reaching out to others, President Monson has emulated the Savior, who “came not to be ministered unto, but to minister” (Mark 10:45).

“Today there are hearts to gladden, there are deeds to be done—even precious souls to save,” President Monson has declared. “The sick, the weary, the hungry, the cold, the injured, the lonely, the aged, the wanderer, all cry out for our help.”

(“The Blessings of Ministering,” Ensign, Oct 2009, 34–37)
