Free Lunch

Awe. Now I have your attention. But really, check this out.

FREE rice bowl, 3 Asian tacos, salad or both mi sandwich with an organic fountain soda for each person that responds. I am serious. Everyone wins. No kidding.

Are you down?

Just answer this question: What does FREE really mean anyway? No cost to you? Gratis? On the house? That is a pretty good deal by any account. What is the catch? There is no catch...well, you do have to go to the restaurant, put the food in your mouth and chew. I can't do those things for you, but other than that it's free.

At the Copenhagen Denmark Area Conference in 1976, President Kimball went to see Thorvaldsen’s beautiful sculpture The Christus, the resurrected Christ, which has been reproduced, as you know, for the visitors’ centers in Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, and New Zealand. After a few spiritual moments admiring The Christus, President Kimball bore his testimony to the caretaker who stood nearby. As he turned to the statue of Peter and pointed to the large set of keys in Peter’s right hand, he proclaimed: “The keys of priesthood authority which Peter held as President of the Church I now hold as President of the Church in this dispensation.” Then he stated to the caretaker, “You work every day with Apostles in stone, but today you are in the presence of living Apostles.” He then introduced President N. Eldon Tanner, Elder Thomas S. Monson, and Elder Boyd K. Packer. He presented the caretaker with a Book of Mormon in Danish, and bore his testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith. The caretaker was moved to tears in acknowledgment of the Spirit he felt in the presence of a prophet and Apostles. He acknowledged as they left the church, “Today I have been in the presence of servants of God.”

And so it is with you. “The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done.” Yes. You have witnessed the fulfillment of this promise, and now you can accept this gift.

It's like free lunch. All you have to do is try to follow him and not rebel...best deal out there.

I will still buy you a free lunch from Zao Asian Café in Lehi or somewhere else you prefer... sorry my offer isn't nearly as good as that described above, but either way you win.

You can't lose on this deal.

I love you, dad
