Perseverance
So…I was at church on Sunday and one of the speakers was an older sister in the ward who is currently single. She mentioned in her talk that she was in ward conference a few weeks ago and mentioned that since she has been single she hasn’t spoke in church or said prayers in sacrament meeting. She said that once you are single you fall off of that radar. Well Thanks!! Is about all I have to say, it was like the member of the bishopric who lines up the speakers bee lined it right to where me and another mid-single, "M", were sitting. He lingered there and seemed to try and keep the conversation going…then he asked us when we wanted to speak in church. In my mind I was thinking that sometime in October sounded good…however, "M" was like how about next week. I looked at her like she was a crazy person and she just said, let’s do it and get it over with. Turns out he had to rearrange the speaking schedule that he already had in place to squeeze us in, in 2 weeks. He called me later and gave me my topic…Perseverance. Any insights/input/comments to help me prep are welcome…

hi rachel, thanks for inviting me to your blog!
i used to be good about taking a green drink. it was the "greens first" brand and it actually tasted pretty good. my practitioner also encouraged me to make positive self comments as i drank it each day. i soon found myself half craving those drinks, much to my surprise. so you're not alone. :)
as for perseverence...um, well, i'm reading jeremiah right now and i think he had alot of perseverence to just keep on prophesying destruction to those people. in general, i guess prophets are pretty good examples of perseverence. so, basically, yeah, i don't have any brilliant ideas for you... ;) but i'm sure you'll come up with something and it will be brilliant!
