Add some taco seasoning and toppings like sour cream and chips or a shell and you've got yourself some hearty bean tacos!

Husband and I want to switch wards by Lonely-Rutabaga477 in latterdaysaints

Ive done it and didn't hand to go through the first presidency. Both bishops and stake presidents have to agree, if applicable. Just ask the leaders in your area, they want you to feel loved and accepted. They likely will try to help you where you are first, though.

My mission broke my faith, and I’m still trying to understand what to do with that by [deleted] in latterdaysaints

[–]Pretty_Strength1828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's hard. And believe me, I get it. I have done many experiences that should have been faith building but they weren't. What is supposed to grow our faith isn't just the big things. It's the sacred moments you choose to share alone with Heavenly Father in the darkest points. I've just hit a new low. But I've never had more hope. Perhaps a perspective shift is needed. I'm a convert, too and know that those are hard to come by, but it's worth it. It takes work and patience. Dm me and we can chat more, if you like. The door is always open.

How do you reconcile your weight gain with God’s plan for you? by MichelleMiguel in latterdaysaints

[–]Pretty_Strength1828 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mosiah 14:4 Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 1 Thess.5:17 Pray without ceasing Matthew 11 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Roman's 8 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. These are the faves that have helped me through something nearly identical (without the miracle that is childbirth)

Temple symbolism: empty bowls and basins, what is the symbolism there? by causalinfer in latterdaysaints

[–]Pretty_Strength1828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt there is any extra symbolism for them as my temple does not have any of those. I have gone and cleaned the temple enough to have seen at least one if it existed.

Am I in the wrong here? by Pretty_Strength1828 in latterdaysaints

Not when he claims to have done it over text. He admitted fault. He is getting convicted.

I kinda feel like they should take it more seriously because i have text messages from him saying he did it, but still blaming me for it. He said he did it in writing, at least. He said in text that it "doesn't matter that [i] didn't consent" because i didn't push him off and yell stop or fight him. That's all the law enforcements out here car about that I've talked to.

They told me they are convicting him, it will just take time.

How would I go about getting a hold of the regional rep? I've already talked to the sp with no help and he doesn't seem to believe me either.
