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 [...]
THIS IS HOW IT ALL BEGAN . . . Not With My Righteousness, but with HIS
THIS IS HOW IT ALL BEGAN . . .
August 2, 2009
As I knelt down, this morning, to offer my formal “opening prayer” for the day to Heavenly Father, I automatically (20 years of imperfect buy persistent repetition) reached for my pen and notepad. I had to smile as the recognition whispered through [...]
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 [...]

MY LIFE IN ZION, AS ONE WITH CHRIST IN HEART AND MIND
May 1, 2009
9:05 a.m. Wow! I’ve had such a great morning–so conscious of the Savior’s abiding presence in my “midst.” So grateful for the rock-solid hope and peace that gives me. So grateful for how far and wide I can see from [...]
Recovery = Knowing it isn’t “my” conscience speaking . . .
Hi, everyone. It’s been a while since I posted last time, but I’m still here, believe me. The writing time has just been going other directions, lately.
I’ve put several entries in my journal, this morning, though, that I keep feeling the impression to share on this forum, so here goes. I guess you could say [...]

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 [...]
That They May Know . . . They Are Not Cast Off
“. . . that they may know the covenants of the Lord, that they are not cast off forever.” – quote from the Title Page of the Book of Mormon

JUST HOW “LITTLE” A “LITTLE CHILD” I MUST BECOME
“Become as a little child”–to me that phrase is translated into this reality from God’s words to my heart:
Colleen, trust me enough to lay down and become an infant so young that you can not even crawl to follow me. All you can do is lay on your back, 100% helpless with out me [...]
Singing the Hallelujah Chorus!
Waking up feeling like it is Christmas morning! Feeling like the Savior has come, . . . IS COME.
That’s how I feel this morning—DELIVERED!
Like singing the Hallelujah Chorus!
For unto ME a child is born! Unto ME a son is given! (Said with awestruck amazement that it could be felt THIS personally, individually. [...]
