Abide With Me 'Tis Evntide

Dear You,

I recently came across a local blog of a young man by the name of Seth Adam Smith [ http://sethadamsmith.com/ ] It contains an amazing story of rebuilding life from a suicide attempt & all of the wonderful things he has done & aspires to accomplish. I am not much of a reader.. trust me when I say this is a good read. {worth your time}

I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. It brings my soul happiness.

There are many things I enjoy in life.. one of the main things I thoroughly enjoy is music.. ALL KINDS

I have to say some of my favorite songs come from the LDS Hymn Book.

-->> God be with you till we meet again
-->> Abide with me tis eventide

Both with be sung at my funeral.

One of my most favorite traditions that I have witnessed & had the opportunity to be apart of is singing God be with you till we meet again with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They sing it after every performance to thank those visiting.. be it the audience or the amazing guest they had perform with them. It honestly I believe sums up & is a witness of Christ. There is nothing more wonderful than hearing or singing that song in ode to some one. Time stops for a moment & you feel wonderful. I know I tear up every time.

I came across this video tonight.. & I would have to thank Seth for posting in on one of his blogs.. {thankyou}

It is a video created by an artist who explains his paintings symbolism. It is quite profound & I much needed to hear the message. I have a new found respect for Howard Van Lyon & his art. [ http://fineart.howardlyon.com/ ]

FAITH:

ALMA 32:21 Book Of Mormon
21. And now as I said concerning faith—afaith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye bhope for things which are cnot seen, which are true.

HEBREWS 11:1 New Testament - King James Version
 1. Now afaith is the bsubstance of things choped for, the devidence of things not seen.

Love..

Me
