    Yesterday, I told the Primary children I could see their mouths moving, so I knew they were singing, but I couldn't hear them. (They sing SUPER soft!) One 8 year old boy raised his hand: "Sister Meyers, I know why you can't hear us." Me: "Why do you think?" The boy (who is the son of a doctor): "When people get old they can't hear anymore and they can't see very well anymore either. And that's not me saying that -- it's a fact!" Whenever I forget I'm old, one of the Primary children is always quick to remind me : )

I am not a speck

When I think of all the billions and billions of people who have been and will be on this earth, I think of little me a speck hidden behind the crowd. Not good enough to stand out to be seen by Heavenly Father or the Savior. But I know better because they see all of us, and know each of us. They see our faults and weaknesses and love us anyway. What helps me, to remind me of my worth is the song, “ I Stand All Amazed At The Love Jesus Offers Me”. That brings home to me the love and suffering that he went through for me. For me, a sinner He suffered and bled and died. All I can do is try to be like Him and love like Him and try to be the best me I can for Him.

Joy of the harvest

I grew up on a 380 acre farm in Michigan near the little town of Leslie. As a boy on the farm my life revolved around the process, sowing the seeds with faith in the future The planting season starts in the Fall with preparation of the soil and planting the wheat after the first frost because the first frost kills a fly that lays it’s eggs in the young wheat stem and destroys the crop. The wheat grows to about 3 or 4 inches and is covered with a blanket of snow to wait till spring. In the spring we prepare the next field for oats. The smell of freshly turned earth is so good in the spring. Oats are planted in early May. Next the corn is planted in late May to early June. In June the hay field is ready to cut. The smell of new mown hay is sweet and to this day if I am driving by a field of hay that has just been cut I will roll down the windows to smell that sweet field of hay. Near the end of July the oats are ready for harvest and put in the oat bin. The wheat comes next. When the so...

Now and forever

We just passed our 63rd anniversary and I sit here thinking about our life together. We had help finding each other. How else would a Michigan farm boy serving in the Army, in Korea be put in a place to meet the girl Heavenly Father prepared for him. Returning from Korea I was destined for 5th Army Headquarters near Chicago, close to home. When the orders were cut the 5 was replaced with a 6. Sixth Army headquarters was on the Presidio of San Francisco. Recently moved to San Francisco from Mesa Arizona was a beautiful young lady whom I was destined to meet. Exiting a movie theater my friend saw two girls ahead of us and said he would like to meet the one in the green skirt. I was friends with the other one so we stopped to talk to them. We went with them to a pizza place and then took them home, and there I saw her. She was beautiful. I immediately felt drawn to her. My heart thrilled. I couldn’t stop looking at her. I felt like I found someone I knew but had lost track of, I knew her....
