The Lord's work will go forth.

I have been somewhat bothered by the results of the election and the issue of same-sex marriage. I have been thinking about it a lot lately and what kind of a world my kids are going to grow up in and I was reading about Joseph Smith this morning and a quote by him that gives me a lot of comfort is:

“The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done.”

No one can stop the Lord's work and I know that if we follow President Monson and do everything that we are supposed to do, we will be blessed. The example will be set for our children and they will know what road to take when the time comes and they are faced with their potentially life altering trials.

Happy Halloween!!

It's hard to get all of the kids to look at the same time. I think they still looked cute though. Happy Halloween.
