Enlightened

The whole month of January, I have practiced to partcipate in the musical play of the Ten Virgins. Our stake put it on for our Annual Women's Conference. It has such a beautiful message of our relationship with Jesus Christ. Each virgin had a personality and a lamp that was specific to her devotion. We each had parts to say and a song that related to our character. The setting was beautiful with a huge stage, props and lighting. We even dressed-up in period clothing. We performed with a CD because the music is so beautiful. Of course there were five foolish and five wise virgins. My character was a "foolish" one. "Adi" was too concerned about the way people think about her. So she used all her money to buy a new dress for the "wedding" instead of extra oil. It is interesting to think that the parable is about church members and their preparation for the bridegroom. "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh." Matthew 25:13

We had a overflowing turn-out and since I performed this the Saturday after Brady was put in as Bishop, my in-laws, mom , and sister were able to see it. Thanks again for flying up here! Love you all.
