NO PERFECT PERSON!!!
I just had it revealed to me that I don't do the things that I need to do ( at church). Yes it did hurt alittle. I don't know what else to do at church but worship and accept callings and do visiting teaching. I know that I can do alot better in all those areas, but to hear that someone thinks and tells others that I don't do what I need to really makes me mad!!! The person that said these things will not read this, but it sure makes me feel better. Maybe if we "stop" looking for fault in others, we might just help each other instead of tearing each other down. There are no perfect people!!! Church is for imperfect people! That's why we are there!!

I agree with you Monique. I know that we all have faults and don't need them pointed out to us. Sorry that you had a bad day but I have been told worse:) by sisters at church!!!!
I am really sorry for the crummy comment at church... So often people speak about things they have no idea about.... You are an A+ in my book!! Like preparing for your son to go on a mission, getting another son ready to get married, raising another still at home AND BEING THE BISHOP'S WIFE... C'mon people!!! Just know you are loved still the same... Just tell that lady that someone you taught in merry miss still remembers your lessons and used the journal she gave religiously until it was filled cover to cover... =)
p.s. we were at the meyers' house today for dinner and saw Brad's wedding announcement on their fridge.. I LOVE IT... I LOVE SIMPLE BLACK AND WHITE!
I still want to be just like you when I grow up.
I totally agree 100% I mean Seriously?, even Jesus said that he who is without sin let him cast the first stone... it's like you said we are all a work in progress working towards becoming perfect.....geez, the nerve of some people! Even I'm upset about it now, I've have always from day one had a very high opinion of the way you conduct yourself and represent the church :) we love you and think you are doing a great job!!!
I'm so sorry someone said that to you. Honestly, I don't know what comes over people sometimes!
You can ABSOLUTELY add me to your blog. I am so sorry about the comment. It broke my heart to read that - only because I know how it feels to be on the receiving end of someones hurtful comments. I think you are amazing!
Thanks for letting me rant and rave. And thanks for the comments, ya'll all are so nice and I love my blogging sisters!!!
My favorite quote right now is from Abe Lincoln. "If we look for the bad in people, expecting to find it, we surely will." Everyone has inperfections and if we are constantly looking for them, then that is all we will see. Likewise, if we are always looking for the good in people, then that is what we will see. I'm sorry someone has hurt you. I think you are a wonderful and kind woman. You have obviously been doing something right because you are married to a very spiritual man and are raising 3 amazing sons! A great example to other women and mothers.
You are a wonderful person. I have always admired your sweet spirit and the way you include everyone in your circle.
