Blessed

Just jotting down how blessed we are. I know we don't have a lot of money. Right now I don't have a steady babysitting "job".   (Little K started preschool this year.) Pennies are being stretched.   The pantry and the freezer have never looked so empty.  I could sense the King's "worry" look even though he tries to hide it well.

Anyway, we went up to Mililani last night to have FHE with Gramma and Grampa at Auntie Wanda Naumu's home.  We  try to go every Sunday, but because the King and I had to go to a meeting/fireside we went last night.   (The meeting was for the high council man and their wives...  the KING played the organ= i lob it when he plays.  He is such a teddy bear.  When he is behind the piano or organ he melts my heart.  He is not all gruff and tough.)  We brought dinner.  (Beef and mushroom Dijon, rice and lots of rolls.)  Anyway.. it was a beautiful drive up there.  We saw a double rainbow.  I haven't seen double rainbows since I left Guam.  But yesterday we saw one by the Pineapple plantation.

Alright, get to the blessings already.  Though the pantry is looking empty we are not starving, there is always  food coming from somewhere and/or someone.   Our almost empty gas tank was filled up yesterday by Gramma Goo.   You see, we are all Goo'.  HE sure is looking out for us.    I acknowledge that He has his hands in all things.  We have a lot to be grateful for.  We are sure blessed.

This is too funny! I started reading the Book of Mormon the end of last month so I can pass off the value project for VIRTUE. Yes, I'm working on my PERSONAL PROGRESS with Princess. Cool huh? Anyway, back to reading. I'm doing it online through

http://www.readthescriptures.com I like it because I get a reminder in my email and the reading assignment for the day is attached. After the reading assignment on Saturday, this particular quote was shared.

I really like this quote because it is a good reminder that 10 percent of our income is not ours. So, we shouldn't have to think twice about what we need to do with it. We are able to work because He has given us life, knowledge, strength, talents and everything else you can think of that makes us do what we are able to do.

Well, after dinner tonight Auntie P and Uncle M came ring-a- ding-dinging our doorbell and this is what they brought! What can I say? We are truly blessed. Thank you! Arigats! Salamat! Mahalo. I'm taking note of these things so the Goo Babes and future Goo Babes will remember that when we pay our tithing and fast offering we will be blessed. Only the King works full time and there is always more than enough food for us to consume. Sometimes I think ....too much...we are getting too fat. =)

Oh, here is the quote.

"...pay your tithes and offerings out of honesty and integrity because they are God's rightful due...Paying tithing is not a token gift we are somehow charitably bestowing upon God. Paying tithing is discharging a debt."--Jeffrey R. Holland, "Like a Watered Garden," Ensign, Nov. 2001, 33
