My Mother told me a story recently about a new pair of shoes. It seems that, during the depression, when she would have been about 10 years old, like a lot of others their family had little money to spare. Some kind friends in the Church bought her a new pair of shoes.

The Father withdrew his spirit
Two discussions, one with my oldest daughter, and one with my son, clarify my thoughts for this letter.
My daughter mentioned that her Relief Society teacher stated in class that God the Father withdrew his spirit from The Savior in the Garden of Gethsemane as well as while he was upon the cross, because he could not tolerate the sin that Christ took upon himself. This intrigued me, since I had never heard this particular facet of the atonement expressed before.
