Signs of the Times

As we all know we are in the final days, days of distress and turmoil.  But also days of joy to those who prepare for the inevitable coming of the Savior.  Recently I've been studying the New Testament, and I read about what Christ told his disciples concerning the second coming.  One verse stuck out to me more than any others, and I quote it now:

Mark 13
37And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

A simple and concise yet very powerful statement describing what the Savior askes of us.  We all need to continually prepare both physically and spiritually.  Read the scriptures, food storage, listen to the prophet, workout, to name a few.  Let us all strive to be better prepared.

Another Favorite Scripture

Galatians 1

10For do I now ^apersuade men, or God? or do I seek to ^bplease men? for if I yet ^cpleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

P.S. As a reminder I'm still waiting on stories about angels (refer to blog entry angels in November).  You can still email them to john.woodworth@myldsmail.net

Happy New Year

2011 and the start of a new year.  You all made your resolutions yet?  Well I'll share mine on here.
My main goals are:

• Finish the New Testament
• Finish Jesus the Christ
• Get in shape (I don't need to lose weight, build the muscle)
• Endure the last year of the Mission
• Don't die (its not realistic but its a good goal to keep in mind)

So those are my primary goals, what are yours?
