The Plan of Salvation really makes all the difference in the world.<br /><br />I'm not surprised that your friend who disagrees with your beliefs still enjoys hanging out with you. Though I admit.... that your description and encouragement to eat better that you gave me in July 2011 was taken with a grain of salt and plenty of 'TOO MUCH LOVE DAVID. You're psyching me out and making me question too much.' ;D This typical med student will take your thoughts and her training and her own conclusions about intake/sprituality very soon! (insert 7 questions here)<br /><br /> "Love is caring about someone completely and unconditionally and <br /> being willing and anxious to do anything in my power to ensure their <br /> eternal happiness. Love weighs eternity heavier than today, long-<br /> lasting hope over temporary pleasure, meaning and purpose over <br /> desires and passion" <br /><br />This is paramount. I have acted/attempted to apply that principle since the age of 15. It's become VERY real in the last three years. Thank you for sharing what the Spirit prompted you to write. Because with all of these confirmations, I have no doubt that He knows me.<br />Alannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08413993994528608729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-49743201936899035652013-03-29T08:55:43.177-07:002013-03-29T08:55:43.177-07:00I apologize.

I'm sorry I haven't posted your comment yet, Evan. I wanted to write a response to go along with it and haven't made the time to do that yet.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552740645279057549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-89381028866256926692013-03-28T07:06:19.160-07:002013-03-28T07:06:19.160-07:00Sad you decided not to share my thoughts.

You really explained it very well. I agree that there are many in the church who are a little confused on the differences between doctrinal truth and political views. Thank you for explaining it so well, in such a loving way.Lucashttp://www.latter-day-mormon.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-63470033929270547592013-03-27T08:47:15.487-07:002013-03-27T08:47:15.487-07:00Let me just say that you are amazing and are such ...Let me just say that you are amazing and are such a light and beacon to those around you. Thank you for your eternal perspective. I agree with everything you said 100%…especially your last paragraph. It's so profound and beautiful. Bless you for sharing your stance. You're giving courage to those who believe as you do to stand up for this virtuous and loving, yet very unpopular and openly ridiculed side to the issue. Sometimes showing a greater love for one’s soul and eternal happiness means disagreeing with them and protecting what is Godly and in their eternal best interest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2780506856626441160.post-81258774268389578252013-03-27T07:38:47.849-07:002013-03-27T07:38:47.849-07:00Thanks, David.
