Being Anchored in the Book of Mormon by HDDMFB
Dear Friends seeking recovery in and through here-and-now application of the Savior’s offer of Atonement, . . .
The following post is the journal record of this morning’s dialogue with the Lord. In all humility I share it here. I have no intent or desire except to encourage and invite you to embrace the truth that [...]
Receiving the Gift My Father Has Offered Me
July 9, 2009
3:49 a.m. I don’t know why I’m staying up at this time of morning, except that it feels like Christmas, and I am filled with love for God and from God. A “Power greater than myself” is waiting for me every morning that I choose to forgive and dismiss the first impulse that [...]
The Only Thing that Saved Me . . .
There have been some posts of late addressing all the external, arm-of-flesh things a wife might try to do to “help” her husband and protect herself from having to put up with any more of his unrighteous choices, but I have never found any of them to be of any lasting effect. In fact, like [...]
The Only Thing that Saved Me . . . - continue readingTrusting God’s Hand (Purpose) in ALL Things
I see that there way of worshiping and honoring God that is even higher and purer than thinking in terms of putting God first and then other portions of our lives second or third, etc. It is to chose to put God, dead center, all the time, in every moment of our lives–no matter what [...]

April 1, 2009
I have another hour to go to cooperate with the Lord in His purpose that I give Him the first “tithe” of my day–or in other words the first 2 ½ hours. I am not being coerced. I am not faking it. I have been persuaded, I will admit, by the deficit of [...]
I Stand All Amazed at Just What He Offers (ALL of us) . . .
It came into my heart, this afternoon, to share this testimony on the Heart t’ Heart forums, and I felt to also post it here.

3:40 p.m. I’ve been writing in a green steno pad this afternoon. I don’t know what I do that for when I could just as easily type my thoughts [...]
SOME of my negative beliefs that lead to my acting out . . .
PERSONAL: continuation of response to exercise #2 (p. 13) in HDDMFB
January 10, 2009(2nd draft transcribed and revised on January 21, 2009)
What is it that I believe that is negative–that leads to thinking in negative ways and that, then, leads to me acting out in negative ways–usually in the form of unhealthy eating behaviors?
That I’m not [...]
Sharing Where I am in Recovery Right Now
Hi, I’m back. It’s January 21, 2009, and I am grateful to come here and share some first draft entries in the spirit of the true “blog.” These entries are also to be found at heart-t-heart.org, in the forum for “Food Addiction.” That’s where I am posting them first, them copying them to [...]

Not Abandoning the Journey
December 11, 2008
(I posted this piece on the HtH website, this morning.)
Good morning, everyone! This has been a less than perfect week, but then I’m learning that’s to be expected and forgiven and is no reason to abandon the journey.
Someone recently challenged me concerning something I shared at a HtH meeting. They [...]
THE TESTIMONY OF (FROM) CHRIST: A CONTINUOUS SONG OF HIS REDEEMING LOVE FOR ME (US ALL)
I am, of all people, most amazed at how His words go on and on to me. At His graciousness and mercy.
I can hardly pick up the Holy Scriptures without having single sentences, phrases and sometimes just one single word open my mind and heart to His mind and heart—and through the Holy Spirit [...]
