The Word Of Wisdom

Yesterday at church the lesson during Relief Society was from the George Albert Smith manual on the Word of Wisdom.  It was just what I needed to hear, cause I know my diet has been lacking some health foods lately, especially in the vegetable arena.  But it's a new week and I love running errands on Monday - the stores are not busy at all and I'm able to channel all my new week resolutions into my weekly shopping so I stay fixed on my new goals.  I just ran my grocery errands today and I have my menu for the week planned out, I've got everything to make myself Dr. Oz's green shake everyday. :)  Great article here by Hugh Nibley on the Word of Wisdom.  As for the lesson manual, here is my favorite quote:

Let me plead with you, search the Word of Wisdom prayerfully. Do not just read it; search it prayerfully. Discover what our Heavenly Father gave it for. He gave it to us with a promise of longer life and happiness, not if we fail to observe it, but if we observe it. Read the Word of Wisdom in the presence of your families and set the example. If we will do that Zion will continue to grow. If we will do that the Church of the Lamb of God will continue to become a power for good in the world

If we obey the word of wisdom, ZION WILL CONTINUE TO GROW!!!  That's our dispensations mission, so that's a good thing to be working towards, I want to do everything I can to build Zion.
