The Circle of Life

The circle of life comes to each of us.  We leave the pre-earth existence as we are born into this life.  We learn how to live here as we grow from babies and progress through puberty into adulthood.  For some of us our life cycle is long and tedious extending into our doddering years and we live without knowing what is going on around us. But for some our life cycle ends early.  Some lose their lives in childhood, some as newly minted adults and some just as their lives are blooming. Such is the case for Megan Forsyth Black.  If memory serves me correctly, Megan was born in 1985, married her sweetheart, my son Gardner Black in the St. George Utah Temple in 2006 and lost her life as a result of complications during a surgical procedure done in Mexico a few days ago at the age of 35.  The details of her travails in life are less important than understanding that her circle of mortal life has been made complete.  She entered the post-earth existence ...

Personal Revelation

This is a hard article to write.  These things are private, but I feel prompted to write them anyway.  Hopefully these musings will be helpful to someone else.

Personal revelation can be persistent and can be hard to ignore even when we don't want to receive it.

Heavenly Father's Tender Mercies

We left Houston on Tuesday morning in great haste, took care of our last-minute errands and then headed on the trail to St. George, UT.  But when we got to Wichita Falls, where we spent the night, I could not find my pill minder.  In it were all of my medicines dosed out until Sunday morning.  We unloaded the car, looked through each suitcase, bag and every other container we are using to no avail. Last night in my prayer I asked Heavenly Father's help in finding my pill minder.  I cannot afford to lose any of my meds because some of them are very expensive and are only partially covered by insurance.  I got an immediate response: "garbage can". I assumed He ment the waste baskets we are using for small stuff.  So, this morning I went through them again.  Nothing.  I was pretty disappointed,  but I examined everything else just in casr.  The thought came to me that it had fallen into the garbage sack that we threw in the dumpster just as...
