A Trip To The Church Office Building
Good Morning Everyone! I Just Wanted To Come Online Today And Say Hi To All Of You Wonderful People Out There In Blogger Land. I Won't Be Around Much Today. Yeah, I Know You All Will Miss Me VERY MUCH! LOL. I Am Going To Go Pay A Visit To The Church Office Building Today Because I Need A Copy Of My Patriarchal Blessing. I Got That When I Was 15. I Can't Believe I'm About To Say - THAT WAS HALF MY LIFE AGO. WHOAH Nelly! I Feel Old. I'll Be 30 In December. No Actually I Look Forward To Turning 30 - A New Era In My Life. I Can Say Hello To A More Mature Generation Of My Fellow 30-Somethings Who Have Survived The 20. So People Tell Me I'm Crazy Because How Many 29 Year Olds Are LOOKING FORWARD TO AGING! Not Like You Could Ever Tell This About Me. People Still Say I Look 21. How Do You Explain 3 Children - The Oldest Being 9? Okay. So Anyways, It Is For My Little Darlings And Because Through My Rebellion That I Lost My Patriarchal Blessing And Need To Get It - My Life Map - So I May Receive The Answers. All I Remember About It Was "Your Children Will Love And Respect You....You Should Be Careful To Get Your Education As Much As Possible As To Alleviate Problems That Would Otherwise Come To You....You Will Learn Just As Your Mother Learned That There Will Be Light And Joy....One Day A Man Will Enter Into Your Life Who Has Also 'Made Sacrifices. He Will Come To You At The Appropriate Time In Your Life...." I'm Just Paraphrasing Here Because I Don't Have A Perfect Memory (Hence The Reason I REALLY Need To Get It) And, But It Proceeded To Tell Me That I Would Be Sealed In The Temple To Him For Time And All Eternity. So I Still Have A Marvelous Mission To Fulfill Here On Earth. But Just Relaying What I Remember Of My Blessing Just Brings Tears To My Eyes Because I Know How Important It Is Today To Go Get My Patriarchal Blessing - My Life Map - So I Can Know What I Need To Do And So I Can Have Some Missing Parts Of Me Revealed. If Time Permits, I May Just Visit The Temple Grounds. I Just Feel Heart Tickled Thinking About It....But Once Again I'm Glad I Live In Salt Lake, The Great Promised Land Of Zion. Because If I Lived Elsewhere, I'd Have To Wait Longer. So Anywho, Wish Me Luck! I'm So Exited. I Know That Just Getting To Visit The Church Office Building Is Going To Be A Remarkable Experience That I Will Enjoy That Much More Since I Came Back To Church. But It Also Makes Me Wonder What Things May Come Of Nicholas, Shelden And Carters Patriarchal Blessings. But Its Personal - Between Them And God. But As Their Mom, I Just Want To Know What's In Store For Them In Life. So We Will See What Today Brings And I Will Report Back Later! Have A Great Day!
Update Of This Post - I'm Going To Be Changing A Lot Of The Content At This Post To Let You All Know How It Went And Let You Know Of The Process Of Getting A Copy Of Your Patriarchal Blessing If You Don't Have It. I Didn't Have A Copy Of Mine. I Lost It During My Rebellious Years And Now I Am Just Feeling The Need For It Again. Anywho, So I Know What The Process Is. Or You Can Skip The Brouhaha And Call The Church Office Building At (801)240-1000 And They Will Be Able To Help You. Talk To You Soon. Shanni
