A door was opened for me to spend a week at Manti's annual LDS Pageant in Utah. That week was amazing. I came away with one question that demanded an answer. Ever since I have wrestled with the question and the answer. The question that I was confronted with is this; "is that (or this) ok with you?" The answer I came back with is "no it is not ok with me that people keep living as they are just letting life happen.
The next event was to take place for 6 weeks during the summer of 2008: the opening of the Twin Falls LDS Temple. Again the question came to me, is this ok with you? And I said no . . . but what can I do?
I will tell you I cannot do much. I am not skilled as I think I should be. I do not have a lot of resources. But, Holy Spirit reminded me that all I need to do is what he directs me to do. So I did and I participated in the events that the churches in the Magic Valley offered. I went through the temple a few times to understand and witness.
This brings me to the whole reason of this post. In order for us to have an honest discussion with someone about faith in Jesus Christ, we must first answer the question. Is it ok with me that people remain blind, sick, lame, outcasts, lost? If not, then what am I going to do?
