Well Christmas in Durango was beautiful!!! It was snowing lots on Christmas day. It was just a blast. Crazy story, we parked at the top of our drive way and went inside to grab lunch and when we came back out the truck was gone!! It had slid down the drive way about 30 ft and was like a foot and a half away from hitting a pole. ha!!
We got to go to a youth detention center with a member and teach some of the youth ( 18 or 19) who wanted to learn about the gospel It was such a neat experience! Some of them have truly been humbled and want to change. There was one in particular named Travis. He was only 18ish and just covered in tattoos and you could tell he had a rough life. He now sees that God can make it better.
My ponderize scripture is 1 nephi 17:13
13 And I will also be your light in the wilderness; and I will prepare the way before you, if it so be that ye shall keep my commandments; wherefore, inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments ye shall be led towards the promised land; and ye shall know that it is by me that ye are led.
I love this because I have been lost in the woods or wilderness before and the reason I got lost was because it was so dark. If we look for the light and follow it (aka keep the commandments) we will be safe and make it too the promised land or to be with God again
