The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints- a poem

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
We believe other lands had visits from Christ.
They saw signs in the heavens, they knew His name.
He taught them, they felt His wounds, He dried their eyes.
The Book of Mormon testifies that He came.
We're Christians otherwise nicknamed “The Mormons”.
The Chur...

Ardour, Jack, Digital Mix Reset
PoeticIntensity
Since I began using Ardour to record music, (and more music), I've always managed to have the same problem crop up, year after year. The symptoms of this problem are annoying to say the least.
I'm running all my audio through an M-Audio 1010 digital interface and I use envy24control to monitor and adjust the channels via. software. I ...

Gotta Start Another Project....
PoeticIntensity
I'm going crazy in my life again. I'm kinda weird that way.
Things are going well and then I finish a project, or get sick of it, or something else. Heck, the whole "project" mentality I have is what started this whole "ilovemyjournal" thing (as well as ldscompanion.org). I also wrote and produced 17 very ama...

Also, to President Hinckley and his challenge for the members to read the book of mormon. and to Bernice Hutchenson w...

Amber's Poem
pulupaki_famili
(poem)
One day along time ago,
Before the world began
A plan was given to each of us
It was placed in our willing hands
There were two parts to this plan
One was for all the world
The other plan was just for us
About our life and what was in store
This first plan included a Savior
Jesus Christ, our brother
He will come to earth...

Due to the amazing success Advanced Budget Studios has had in the short time since opening, we've added a few new toys to the studio. We now employ an Audix D6 kick microphone, which adds some serious punch to any acoustic drum tracks.
We also now have some serious firepower on acoustic guitars and drum overheads. We've acquired a mat...

(poem)
It's a new day,
And so I must fight.
Fight for my right live!
As time gose on,
I know my suffering will be small.
But why must I stuggle at all?
Time will go on,
And soon I'll be,
Just another scar on your heart.
Am I so alone?
My sadness and pain,
I'll never show.
But will time go on for me?
Can there be light behind my sorrow...

Holy cow. I only have 10 more chapters to go, and I'll finish the goal I set 3 years ago, to read and write about each chapter in the Book of Mormon. I'm not sure why, but when I just realized that (like 1 minute ago), it was kind of surreal for me. Anyway... Here goes.

Honest living of the Gospe...

All I gotta say about this chapter is man, I do not want to be on the wrong side of things when the 2nd coming of Christ is ushered in.
Verses like 16 and 18 really hit home on what we're in for.

Staying True to Yourself

One other thing I've been thinking about lately is a lesson I learned a long time ago. This lesson is summarized into one sentence:
Being true to God in no way diminishes your being true to yourself, simply because God knows how the *best* "you" is.
