*Today in church my sweet friend Amy spoke. She and her family have lived in this area longer than just about anybody else in our ward. Her husband Bill was the first person baptized in the newly created Wylie Ward. We moved in just after that ward was split into two, and now there are four wards here. However, this was her very first talk in Sacrament Meeting! I actually hadn't realized that. She told some very personal stories of how she has found strength in adversity. She reminded us to look for the good in the bad. She gave an example from earlier in the summer when her family was about to leave on vacation. They decided to get a tire replaced, but while it was being changed, they found there was major problems with something else, so a $100 repair became a $1000 repair--but she was grateful that they found the problem before they were in the middle of their trip in the middle of nowhere with a tire falling off the car. I am so grateful for Amy and her faith.
It was a delight!
