Dear Family and Friends,
It's been a good week! We had zone conference on Tuesday and discussed the Atonement. It was really a refreshing zone conference; sometimes you just need to talk about how awesome God is. President Egbert shared with us about how the Atonement = Power and showed us scriptures.
1. Mosiah 16:7-8 Power to Resurrect
2. Helaman 5: 11 Power to Redeem
3. Mosiah 15: 8-9 Power to Satisfy Justice
4. Mosiah 24 8-9 Power to Deliver
5. Alma 7: 10-13 Power to Succor
6: Helaman 5: 12 Power to Resist Temptation
7. Alma 36: 18-21 Power to Change
The Spirit was very strong in that meeting. We could have talked about anything, but some things just matter more than others, isn't that true?
Also had stake conference yesterday. President Gould (stake president) talked about asking God "What lack I yet?" It was was a really good talk that came from his heart, I think.
Fun fact: Did you know that it references the story of the fiery flying serpents at least five times in the Book of Mormon? I have been looking at footnotes a lot and noticed that while reading through 1 Nephi 17. The four other references are 2 Nephi 25, Alma 33, Alma 37, and Helaman 8. Crazy! It's like types of Christ are important or something . . .
Hope all of you have a great week! Don't get too hot! wait, it's only balmy over here . . . :)
Love, Sister Aida Tibbitts
