Rain Drops on Roses and ...Salvation?

Here’s a little taste of single’s ward sacrament meeting today.

She’s trying to get the words to describe a feeling almost indescribable. And that's difficult times ten, when you’re in the spotlight. And she’s been silent now for a minute which probably seems a lot longer in such public speaking settings. She finally gave up and just let the words come out,


“Ugh! “(the giving up sigh)


“The atonement is just one of my favorite things!”


'Okay Julie Andrews.'

I held in the laughter and contemplated what I would want to say to her after. Like,


“No way! Me too! Avoiding damnation is like in my fave five!”


I mean, as long as we're talking about salvation as if it's a daisy, skinny jeans, 2004 Jetta or brown paper packages tied up with string. Might as well add atonement to my top 8 on My Space.


Rain drops on roses, whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens... and no Redemption? Julie, Some Nun you are!


Okay, that's it. I'm creating a Facebook fan page....


Salvation


Watch for your news feed...


Hannah Conley is now a fan of salvation.


'Cuz she wasn't before?'


Smatchoo and Amen to that sista!

Now I'm going to have that song in my head all day.

By the way, that makes me laugh about as much as when I heard a guy in our ward say he forgave Jesus for losing his temper when he threw out the money changers.

Good times ...

LOL, touche to the max. I couldn't have described the rolling-my-eyes reaction better myself.
