devo time

in the spirit of using my mind creatively and efficiently this summer/and in paying more attention to what i think about all day long, here are some good scriptures:

1. D&C 88: 124
   124 Cease to be ^aidle; cease to be ^bunclean; cease to ^cfind fault one with another; cease to ^dsleep longer than is needful; retire to thy bed early, that ye may not be weary; arise early, that your bodies and your minds may be ^einvigorated.
2. D&C 43: 34
   34 Hearken ye to these words. Behold, I am Jesus Christ, the ^aSavior of the world. ^bTreasure these things up in your hearts, and let the ^csolemnities of ^deternity ^erest upon your ^fminds.
3. Matt. 22: 37
   37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt ^alove the Lord thy God with all thy ^bheart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy ^cmind.
4. 1 Chr. 28: 9
   9 ¶ And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a ^aperfect heart and with a willing mind: for the Lord ^bsearcheth all hearts, and ^cunderstandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou ^dseek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.

some things to think about/apply:

- how do i love God with all my mind?
- how can i keep an eternal perspective every day?
- what things can i do to invigorate my mind?

also, i've been getting e-newsletters from the White House....and i think i'm going to send a BOM to President Barack Obama. has anybody thought about that? probably?! what are we waiting for?!!

2ndly, i'm so excited for my first 4th of july in provo, the heart of america. summer has been real good so far.

U-S-A! U-S-A!
