- modern marvels: like today's medicine. Thank goodness for Urgent Care, especially tonight so Mini-Me can be on the mend much more quickly... thus missing less school, thus driving her poor ol' mom less bonkers... thus everyone's that much happier that much sooner.
- modern marvels: like cell phones. Communication is so efficient. (Though I do miss my old, heavy rotary phone.)
- modern marvels: like computers, satellites & DSL. Speaking of efficiency, presentations are practically instantaneous... conducting business is more streamlined, so less Holiday time is wasted in lines at the mall. Plus, blogging is such a great resource for journaling & networking.
- modern marvels: like vehicles. Whether a plane, train, automobile or truck, they not only provide speedy transportation, but also ensure job-security for millions & millions the world over.
"How wonderful it is that we believe in modern
revelation. I cannot get over the feeling that if revelation were needed
anciently, when life was simple, that revelation is also needed today,
when life is complex. There never was a time in the history of the earth
when men needed revelation more than they need it now."
, ("Inspirational Thoughts," Ensign, September 2007)
"Revelation need not all come at once. It may
be incremental. 'Saith the Lord God: I will give unto the children of
men line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a
little; and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts, and lend an
ear unto my counsel, for they shall learn wisdom; for unto him that
receiveth I will give more' (2 Nephi 28:30). Patience and perseverance
are part of our eternal progression."
