It was kind of a busy and crazy day at work (to say the least), so it was nice to come home and find an email from my little brother, Marshall. We get emails weekly from him, and they always seem to come at just the right time! It was so good to hear his voice on Christmas when we were able to talk with him for a few minutes. In his email this week, he shared this experience:"There was one day this week when a man drove past us in the other direction shouting "Só Jesus salva!" ("Only Jesus saves!") You know, in one sense he was right. Jesus did do something that only He could do for us in order for us to receive salvation... but the thing is, there are things we can (and need) to do in order for the Atonement that He went through to apply to us. And as representatives of Jesus Christ, we're here to help other people learn what those things are and do them."
I'm so grateful to have a brother serving a mission right now. I feel like I've grown to love him more even though he's so far away!
And on an entirely unrelated note, my poor desk needs a little attention, don't you think?

That is a good reminder of the things we need to do. As for your desk that just means you have been extra creative/busy and you haven't found time to organize. At least that is what I tell myself when mine looks that way.
at least your pens lay neat in rainbow order. sesame street was about rainbows today, coincidentally. which could be why i noticed that.
what's that "damn, i'm hot" article about?
