Good for a week only

Post by Shulem »

Anyway, it dawned on me this morning the reason the prophet waited a week before making his great announcement to the whole world:

He wanted it to coincide with Thanksgiving week because his message was about thanksgiving and gratitude.

Well, after the Thanksgiving week is over, it will be time for the saints to reaccess the situation and determine if another week of giving thanks will settle the issue and solve the problem.

Then, there is the week after that, and that. OMFG.

The Prophet's follow-up

The Story behind My Global Prayer of Gratitude
NelSatan wrote:A few weeks ago, I woke in the middle of the night with the thought that I should offer a prayer of gratitude to God for all of His children around the globe.
Wow! :o

The prophet was woken up by God in the middle of the night and received a mighty revelation!
NelSatan wrote:Thoughts flooded my mind of all of the things for which we should be grateful and how expressing that gratitude could become a healing spirit in our lives.
The prophet's mind was flooded with thoughts about things "WE" should be grateful for! Was he seeing all mankind in action and witnessing world events before his eyes?

Amazing! :shock:

NelSatan wrote:As the inspiration came, specific details, including when and how I should share this message, came to my mind and heart.
He must have realized that Thanksgiving was just around the corner and what better time to share a message about being thankful. Duh!

:lol:

OMFG!

I'll never stop calling him "NelSatan". The man is a total dodo.

:lol:
NelSatan wrote:The video message shared today was not one that came by chance; it is one that came from heaven.
And angels too! Don't forget the angels!

:lol:

What a dope.

I have decided this week to be grateful for Louis Midgley. He has redeemed himself at least a tenth of a percent with this statement:
Louis Midgley

...If anyone comes to my home, I will force you to take at least five books....

Or maybe I am just really, really thankful for books.

Don't get too excited Lem, the 5 books are going to be 5 copies of the Book of Mormon.... :lol:

Aw damn, I didn't think of that! And now that I think about it, he'll probably throw in a Miracle of Forgiveness, too!

Why isn’t Uchtdorf following Nelsons invitation?
“For each of the next seven days, post about something or someone you're grateful for using the #GiveThanks hashtag.”

I can’t find many Apostles who are posting a Give Thanks message on social media each day of the seven day period.

Rasband hasn’t tweeted anything since 30th October...

Stevenson nothing since 15th November...

As soon as I have time, I'll click those links and take a look at "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly". LOL! That's a plug for RFM.

This is an amazing observation on your part, IHAQ, in showing that the beloved apostles of Mormonism don't seem to be in lockstep and are navigating through the pandemic in their own way. This could be a sign that their are schisms at the highest levels of Church management.

You know, President Benson, must be rolling in his grave because the Book of Mormon isn't getting enough attention. Maybe that's why Utah and Idaho have been hit so hard by Corona because the Church is under condemnation, again?
