Contributing

Alas, I am able to upload posts today.  Crazy stuff.  Everything has now been posted and that is nice to not have to think about all these posts that are not getting posted.  I am sure this news comes as great relief to many of you faithful readers who may have thought I dissappeared for good.  No, just not enough strength in my wireless connection to get it done. 

Had the opportunity to speak in church today as I noted in my blog post from yesterday.  I think it went okay.  Certainly felt better about it then I did for my last talk.  I was much more comfortable and though I had written out my talk in it's entirety I did not read it.  There were scriptures, quotes and passages from my journal that I read but the stories and other thoughts I pretty well just told or shared.  I feel a lot more that way and not so robotic.  Anyhow a lot of people seemed to enjoy it though I think there are some that might take their like for your talk to the exttreme.  A simply thanks is great, those that say general authority material seem a bit out there.  I don't know that this necessarily ranks up there with my double phone call and phone answering in the middle of my talk talk.  That was pretty sweet.  I certainly do my best to ensure the cell is on vibrate or silent now. 

So anyhow, I will post the talk on the blog in it's entirety.  This will be what I actually wrote and not what I gave as I had to shorten some things and did not discuss every detail.  It will be the next blog post. 
I am grateful to have spoken in Church.  I love the gospel and love to feel like I am contributing in some way.  Speaking in Church can be one of those ways.
