My Weekend at Time Out For Women in Idaho Falls, Idaho

This weekend has been a very spiritual weekend as I was given the opportunity to go to Time Out For Women in Idaho Falls.  For those of you who have never gone, I would encourage you to go as it is the best thing ever for women to just sit back enjoy music and a spiritually uplifting message.



Here is the crew that was able to go to Time Out For women with me.  The lady clear in the back photo bombed us but she is pretty cool.  In our group we ha two sets of Stephanies and the lady made three Stephanies' 




Friday night we were given the opportunity to hear from City Of Enoch, a band that their CD will be released in April of 2017.  The introduced the speakers for that night.  There was John Bytheway, Tamu Smith and Zandra Vranes.  We first listened to John Bytheway.  He is a spiritual comedian, with a spiritual message.  He first gave us an analogy of when you go into a jewelry store how all the diamonds are on a black background to give off the illusion that they will shine brighter.  



In a dark world of sin and turmoil, we need to shine and stand strong in the gospel.  To be a better example to those around us.  A quote he said," When moral is so dark and we don't follow the world, we will shine against the dark morals."  So what can we do to shine?  We need to step it up.  Women need a time out.  when we are in Time out we need to stop, take a breath, get some instruction, and we need to do better.
when he was done City of Enoch came on the stage and sang Trust In You with the message of;  When we feel like our prayers are not being answered Heavenly Father knows us by letting us try and eventually he has answered them.  (The Link is not them singing as the CD is not out yet but this is the original artist)

They had us close our eyes and imagine what our heavenly thinks when we are praying to our savior as they sing He Hears Me.  This is what I wrote down.  Heavenly Father knows when my heart is breaking from the sorrows of the trials that I have accepted in the pre-existence that has my faith shaken and the tears won't stop and I feel like there is no hope He Hears Me

Saturday as we had left to go back home we had all decided to go see the movie the Shack that had come out the night before.  it is not an LDS movie but the author of the movie is an LDS writer. I would encourage everybody to go see it if you are having a hard time finding Heavenly Father in your life and when you feel like he is not ever there.

Christ Lives, I know it I believe it.  He has a plan for us and we will never know that plan in this lifetime but he does not do random.  If we just pray and ponder what he would want us to do he will answer us.  He loves us.
