November 2022. Week 1

*Today at church the Bishop asked us to have one prayer a day leading up to Thanksgiving be a thankful prayer--only giving thanks and no asking for anything.  I think that's something I need to do.

*Today I was conducting the music for Sacrament Meeting.  (I haven't done that in a long time.  I had a bit of difficulty seeing the words in the hymnbook while it was on the music stand.  My eyes are aging faster than I am.)  For the closing song, we sang "Lord, I Would Follow Thee" and I was looking out at the congregation of my friends, and as I sang "Who am I to judge another as I walk imperfectly?  In the quiet heart is hidden sorrows that the eye can't see," I thought of the sorrows that I knew about and those that I didn't, and I felt the need to repent for any unfair judgements I have made.  I would hope that others would grant me the same.

It was a...good day for reflection!
