  1. I’m having no luck finding the reference for the Packer paraphrase for having what to pray for given to you-neither from google nor your quotes page. A quick hint would be helpful. I got the impression you’d mentioned it previously, but I kinda float around the various podcasts, and I prob missed you that week. Any clues of the top of your head would be helpful.

  2. Try “Prayer and Promptings” given October 3, 2009 by President Packer.

  3. I loved you explanation of “Who so loveth and maketh a lie.” I remember President Kimball saying that a kiss is a symbol of love and loyalty. I used to try to teach my students that when they were engaged in a great amount of physical affection, solely for the purpose of recreational activity, that they were loving and making a lie. In otherwords, their display of physical affection was a lie because there was no love or loyalty in it. In essence their behavior was a form of whoremongering. That idea caused some helpful introspection.

      Thanks John, this certainly gives one pause.
