Friday Forum: John 12:35-36 “Ye May Be the Children of Light”
Discuss John 12:35-36
35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. 36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light….

Frustration When Friends Are Over -Working Out Disagreements
One day my daughter had one of her best friends over to play while her mom and I visited upstairs. They had only been playing for about 45 minutes when her friend came up from the basement in tears to see her mother. She and my daughter were having a hard time and neither of them felt understood by the other.
My friend tried to comfort her daughter and give her suggestions on solving the problem but her daughter said, “Mom, I tried to talk to her about it but she won’t listen to me.”

Family History Can Save Your Life
In the Fall of 2008, Dr. S, a nephrologist (kidney) expert, at Vanderbilt University Hospital sat staring at his computer screen.

Both your kidneys have a fair amount of amyloid deposits. In every case, I have seen the amyloids go straight for the valves. In a few short months, amyloids usually kill a healthy kidney. In your case, the amyloids have settled as far from the valves as they could get. Will they migrate to the valves? Most likely, but for today, God has sent you a miracle and I have witnessed it.
What Would You Do?
So yesterday in Church something bothered me, I’m not going to go into specific details, those are not important, and I’m not looking for a fight or a debate this time of year. I’m just looking for some direction on how to handle a situation.
The Relief Society teacher taught something that was doctrinally incorrect, and bordered on heresy in my opinion. No one said anything. Not even the president. I almost had to leave the room it bothered me so much.
I wanted to say something, but I didn’t know how with out being obnoxious (I’m still working on that these days). What do I do? I am really bothered by this…REALLY!
What would you do? What would Jesus do? I know it’s not my place to correct, but seriously, it was doctrinally wrong.
Help.
