Elder David Bedn...Thanks for your thoughts, Sandra. Elder David Bednar taught that where there is light, there is warmth; darkness is cold. God is Light and Love, and we feel that warmth from time to time.

Satan came tempting him, demanding to be worshiped as the "Only Begotten." <br />Then again, it was clear to Moses that this being had no glory as did the God he was speaking to previously (and also noted that it was necessary to be transfigured to behold the glory of God, but he was able to see Satan in the &Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00289616452829465280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3935046183191848530.post-78795989086028802972014-11-06T06:56:25.981-08:002014-11-06T06:56:25.981-08:00I wholeheartedly agree with you, Shawn.
