  1. I just love this!  Too bad more people don't feel this way.  I have a feeling if they did the world would be a different place.

  2. Bleh.  I'm dropping your blog from my google reader. 

    I don't read blogs by people who make snarky, judgmental comments about others' motivations but toss in a reference to God to make it sound less smug and condescending.  I think it has the opposite effect.

    Drop.

    Elder Andersen did share this quote in conference, but he notes that it came from "a blog written by a Christian mother". I can only assume he was talking about Rachel's blog, which is wonderful.

    You must be LDS because this was actually spoken in General Conference by one of the apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  And it certainly is a good one!
