Preparing for Church

I have been given the task of preparing flatbread for sacrament on Sunday. I've made it before, but I feel more humbled this time. I guess I understand the meaning more now, that I am preparing such a holy blessing for my family. With this task, I am also preparing to teach my sister-wives more about the Bible. Ann was not raised in church, and the LDS is more focused on teaching doctrine than anything else. B has gone off and on, but does not have a strong foundation either. I guess my years of Bible College are finally paying off. I am humble and almost scared to take this on. I am not a spiritual leader! It is one thing for me to teach my children about God and how much He loves them. It is another thing entirely to teach my sisters! Rich is leading us as a family in the Sacrament, as well as a family "sermon". I want to teach my sister's more about the women in the Bible, and how to follow the good, and avoid the bad. What a task that has been set before me! I've always said that I learn and draw closer by teaching; I guess Heavenly Father is giving me that opportunity now.

    i dont know your story but its suspect that you are divorced. Unless its your ex-husband who dumped you for adultery or fornication, you have no right to remarry. Sorry but its just the biblical truth.

    Well, African Cutie, my ex had an affair and left me. If you would read a few posts down you would see the story. I keep this blog peaceful, and do ask that you keep the tone of your comments the same. Do not seek to judge people. That, also, is Biblical truth.

    While I may not entirely agree with Wife Number 3's lifestyle choice, you are out of line, African Cutie. You may believe you are speaking the truth, but you're certainly not doing it in love as Jesus would have done.

    Biblical point is that you have reason to divorce on the grounds of adultery or fornication. Wife number 3"s husband did abandon her to commit adultery. I look at it as God wish her to be happy and safe, Also I believe that he has a purpose in sending her as, we know home church.
