    How many hearts has she made burst, how many spiris has she stirred!?! Not with her piano music (necessarily), but with her gift with words and willingness to follow the Spirit. I love her!

    This talk is as pertinent today as it was more than 20 years ago. I was able to go to a TOFW in Kansas City once and heard her speak there! She is truly a blessing to the women of this church with her written work, and her spoken word! I really love this woman!

      TOFW 2005? I went to it with our book club group and it was wonderful!! That was about 7 months after being re-baptized and hearing Sister Dew, Wendy Watson and others was so confirming and encouraging!

      That’s one of the beautiful parts of the gospel message: timeless. While the way each of us comes unto Christ is different, the true guideposts belong on every path.

    She is a phenomenal person and Daughter of God. Thought this as she was 1st called to serve in the General Relief Society of the Church. She has such a magnetic presence about her with great wisdom and knowledge of many things in and out side the Gospel. Women are blessed by her as with all of our Relief Society and Priesthood Leaders.

    "Divine love and acceptance." "Purity rather than perfection." Appreciate her candor and compassion. She gets it. Beautiful soul inside and out.

    I can so relate!! I was 5’10 in 6th grade too. It’s like you were sharing my same life story. Thank you! I had the worst posture since all my friends were 4’10-5’2! I felt like the jolly green giant. Growing up in the MidWest, being a Mormon, always being teased for both.

    My heart is full of the Heavenly Father even when I sin I do not feel less because he knows my weaknesses. I am always feeling the beautiful Loven of the Savior and Master inside my body. You can do anything that you want within them and feel something soo much more with them. They are everything to us and we must love and connect with them at all times. The presense of Heaven is upon earth and not many people can right now feel it's presense. Please understand that God himself is around you and even though you might not feel him closely he is there and all you've gotta do is call upon him inside your heart and in your mind. Call upon him in your True Love for him and he will stand inside your body and you will not even know his presense bc he wants you to feel his great loven for you and your pure love for him. Sherry your always in my loven Sweetheart. I greatly always think about you in your days in Ulysses Kansas. What an amazeing special woman Sherry Dew is. Love her to death.

    I want my daughters, daughter-in-law, friends, and my acquaintances, that I care, and want them to know they are cherished daughters of a Heavenly Father, who loves them, wants for their success, and wants them to be happy.... which can only come from knowing we have loving Heavenly parents, who are there for you... you only have to "make" contact with "Them", and listen to their counselor and love....

    "When we went forth into the waters of baptism and covenanted with our Father in Heaven to serve Him and keep His commandments, He bound Himself also by covenant to us that He would never desert us, never leave us to ourselves, never forget us, that in the midst of trials and hardships, when everything was arrayed against us, He would be near unto us and would sustain us. That was His covenant.”
    “And it all begins with the willingness to believe. For if there be no faith among the children of men God can do no miracle among them" (Ether 12:12).
    “Do you believe that the Savior will really do for you what he has said he will do?
    “That he can ease the sting of loneliness and enable you to deal with that haunting sense of inadequacy? That he will help you forgive? That he can fill you with optimism and hope? That he will help you resist your greatest temptation and tame your most annoying weakness? That he will respond to your deepest longing? That he is the only source of comfort, strength, direction, and peace that will not change, will not betray you, and will never let you down?”

    A big finish depends if we r where we should be WHEN we should be there as to aLwaYs (dc 20.77-79) maintaining the necessary (Alma 57.21) rhythm of obedience in our daily lives constantly feeding our eternal spirit (2 Ne 31.19-21)!

    Some people are so heavenly minded, they're no Earthly good. They have to appeal to a "higher authority" to get permission to do big things like going to the bathroom.
