Here is another talk.
See I told you this blog has become a great repository of my religious ideas and feelings.
I was invited to speak at a stake women's conference in my parent's stake where I grew up and went to church from the age of 6 on.
It was a wonderful opportunity and I was grateful to be able to share with the women who attend that day.
I think I benefited the most in taking time to prepare some thoughts to share and remember again how the Lord has guided and blessed my life.
And to remember Jake and the wisdom of his choices and the use of his agency that still blesses our family today.
We always have a choice.

You are probably going to shake your head at this suggestion, but you should submit your talk to the Ensign. Your talk is powerful and I know there are others out there who need to hear your words. I needed to hear your words today. Thank you for strengthening my testimony by reminding me of the beautiful gift of agency.
I loved your talk Jordan. You are an excellent writer. I loved your message and was thinking how God takes us through this process when we face really hard times. I don't want this to sound presumptive but I would like to share with you a book I wrote. If you would send me your address I will send you one. My email is sherrie.anthony@gmail.com
Thank you for sharing. These are wise and powerful words. You should write a book.
I was hoping you would post your talk here! I was so touched listening to you give it. You have incredible insights and such a way with words. Sherri Wiltbank (Monica's sister)

Oh man. This talk! Wow. It touched me so much. Thank you for putting it on here so I can read it and remember your testimony, strength and faith. You are amazing in every way.
This was such a wonderful talk Jord. I felt both you and Jacob's voice in it. Very powerful.
Lovely, lovely, lovely, my friend. Needed your faith and encouragement today. I miss you and need to get together with you soon.
Thank you for this!
It's hard to realize that we do always have a choice, especially when tough and tragic things happen. Thanks for the clarity of your thought and your writing. Love you.
