#LightTheWorld: Jesus Worshipped His Father and So Can You

I am trying to get some #LightTheWorld posts written ahead of time, instead of trying to write on the day. Today, however, the day is almost done, and I'm just now sitting down to post.  I have spent the day in church--singing, meeting with others, teaching, and partaking of the sacrament. What I have not done yet is write about today's topic:  Jesus Worshipped His Father and So Can You. Fortunately, it seems that I participated in the #LightTheWorld challenge today without even remembering what the topic was for today. 


These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.”
John 17:1–2
Worship can take place through prayer, study, and reflection.  It can come through song or silence.  Worship can happen in churches and temples, or anywhere.  If you are curious about what happens in a Mormon worship service, click here.

Regardless of the day of the week, we can worship our Heavenly Father.  I sometimes listen to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's 24/7 commercial-free station.  It's a great way to bring a peaceful spirit into my home, and a great way to praise God through music. 

How do you like to worship?

It's a fun challenge for writers, and a delight for readers. Go over to her blog to read what others have written, and feel free to post your own story, too! This week's prompt: twist. ********************************* The kids who moved in next door were big kids--much older than her 3-year-old self--but they might be fun to play with, and as they were coming towards her, the idea of them being new friends seemed at least possible. She was rather shy, but she understood the basics of making friends, so when those neighbors crowded all around her and asked her what her name was, she didn't hesitate to answer.  She thought she had spoken loudly enough, but apparently her shyness got the best of her, because they didn't seem to have heard her.  "Twisty?" they asked, and recognizing she needed to be even louder, she ...

Ten Things of Thankful: Valentine's Day is in Spring Edition

Despite what the groundhog predicted, here in my neck of the woods we have been enjoying balmy weather.  I think the nation needs a west coast groundhog to provide the local forecast.  I've spent time in my backyard this week, pruning palms and roses, pulling weeds, and planting raspberries and lilacs.  For those of you still buried in snow, I offer a hopeful glimpse of weather to come:
