Book Tag!

I was tagged by my sister April, here is how it works:
Pick up the nearest book (one with at least 123 pages)
Open to page 123
Find the 5th sentence
Post the next 3 sentences
Tag 5 people (or as many as you'd like)

So, Dave packed all my books because I think he thought if I didn't have anything to read, it would motivate me to get our house ready to put on the market. (have you noticed my increase in blogging lately? Apparently not having books to read means I just look for something else that isn't cleaning or organizing).

Anyway, I did have a book still out because I borrowed it from my dad months ago and hadn't read it yet. So since it was my only book out, I read it recently. (so, Dad, you can have it back now, I'll bring it next week.) It's called "Understanding the Power God Gives Us: What Agency Really Means" by Joseph Fielding McConkie.

Fortunately it has 127 pages, so it's barely long enough.

"To concede the reality of darkness brings with it the possibility that she is in the dark, that she has done wrong, and that she needs to repent. Her arguments are couched to avoid the possibility of such a thing.

We have all heard this kind of argument before. The lines are old, trite, and worn. We are forever brought back to the simple verity that if there is light, there must also be darkness, and to reject the light always brings darkness in its stead."

There ya go. It's a good book. I learned some cool stuff.

I tag....

Uh, thanks for tagging me?

At least now I know what I'll write for my next blog entry.

Let me know if you need help with your house. (Although I might secretly thwart your plans as I don't want you to move.)

I'm sure one of these weeks no kids will be sick between the two of us :-)
