When my grandpa Woolf passed away, it took a while before his children organized his belongings. Just before they were to rent his home in Mesa, my mom called and told us that we could go over a choose anything from what was left. It was strange to go in his home. We all miss his sweet spirit so much. I found a book there that has been life-changing for me. The book is called, The 12 Purposes of Life (A Down-to-Earth Guide for the Mortal Traveler), by Jay A. Parry. It may be one of the best books that I have read. If you can get your hands on it, read it. This book has helped me in my understanding of my individual place here on this earth. It has also helped me better understand things like "the Refiner's fire", "tender mercies", and "gifts of the Spirit". I love this book and the blessing it has been to me during this time in my life. I know that things happen for a reason.Sunday, August 2, 2009
