A Tribute to a great man...

We were on our way home from Disneyland listening to a book on CD aptly titled "Spirit Walker" when Talon got a text message from Trevik telling him that our beloved prophet President Gordon B Hinckley had passed away. We were all very saddened by this news. I think it hit me that the world had lost such a great man. Then I immediately thought of the wonderful reunion that he must be having right at that moment with his beloved wife and family. Also the thought that he was probably meeting the Lord face to face...oh to be living a life worthy of that, how nice. President Hinckley got it. He lived a life worthy enough to be a prophet to the Lord. Oh, just to experience a minute part of what he must have experienced in his life makes me want to be a better person. The church will go on, the Lord will have a new mouthpiece, revelation will continue on the earth, BUT, we did lose a man who was a pillar unto the Lord. His presence and sense of humor will be missed.
