LIFE IN YELLOW

The Priesthood Issue will always come up, too.

First off, I want to say how much I can feel that people are thinking about me and praying for me. It's a powerful feeling, and I really need it right now.
Most of you don't know that I went to the emergency room this weekend, and I've spent the last three days doing nothing but sleep. I won't get into the details here, but the short of it is that my eardrum burst - probably from an infection, but I hadn't really been sick, so it was surprising.

YF drove me to the ER, and was there to hold me through the pain, and keep me in good spirits. It was my first ER visit without my mom there - and I missed her. (Yes, I've been to the ER several times, including for ear pain the last time I remember going.)

He was really good to me, and kept saying he wished he could do more. I told YF how in the LDS faith, two men would give me a blessing with consecrated oil (he mentioned Catholics have holy oil for sacred rites as well). I told him that I wasn't sure if it really was "the power of God" or just the miraculous effect of the beliefs of those involved, but I know it works. I've been healed before. He said he definitely believes that our minds are very powerful things - whether mind exists in our brain or spirits, or souls… - and told me of some mind exercises that have worked to heal him before. He also said he was sending me as much healing as he could. I said that I knew that. I could see it in his eyes, and feel it. I could.

YF has powerful eyes. He never really has to say anything, I can read his feelings though them. He's got those "lift you from within your soul" eyes. It's how I know he absolutely adores me. How I know he loves me.

He made me great vegetable soup.

Remind me to write more about our "what makes me think this could work?" conversation.

  • interesting that your title has nothing to do with your text...or does it? As you might imagine I have done quite a bit of searching both soul and text on this issue and know many who may have some insight. call or email me what your questions or concerns are specifically and we can discuss in a more appropriate forum. YF have questions on this or you?

  • The title and text are related. It's not a question necessarily in regards to the preisthood itself, but rather how important is it to have a husband who holds it - having it readily accessible in the home...
    More a continuation of the questioning, searching related to the last post.
