Follow this Guest Book June 30, 2011 
I am so sorry...I had been looking for you people for a long...God bless you in your time of grief..she will be missed..she helped me alot when I was around...Loveingly,,,Jan
THIS was my entry for my friend and mentor Rene'e Schneider.. Her influence on me will never be forgotten. I will miss her but she has so much to look forward to. I am forever grateful that she no longer suffers from illness and earthly failings. I hope someday to be able to see her again.
Thus the subject of this blog is not Rene'e but more as to where she is now. I don't envy her to the point of wanting to be there yet, but I hope to attain that goal for myself. In my church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; we believe in the eternal life of mankind. Three kingdoms of glory and our progression to that stage in our lives. The glories are represented by the Sun (Celestial), moon (Terestrial) and the stars (Telestial)...these kingdoms represent the goals we met while on the earth. Going thru the temple, getting married in the temple to an eternal mate and following the gospel of Jesus Christ by doing all the things we must to deserve the appropriate level in our lives. It also means that we afford others the opportunity to gain these kingdoms in their lives by sharing the gospel through missionary work and supporting them when they decide what they want to do with their lives. I have talked to people about the church. For me, it is much easier to write/type how I feel... I'm not too confident in my ability to verbally share the gospel with others.
I know with time and more involvement with the church, I will attain the confidence I need to be able to speak my feelings. I hope to convey my feelings or testimony to all I can, through my actions, deeds and words. I am weak in getting myself to go to church on a regular basis, in fact, honesty prevails upon me to share that except on rare occasions, I don't really do much of anything to practice what I know is true. I have to also mention that I don't really do much of anything. I can blame it on my emotional make up and the illness I have and think I could get sympathy for it, but a lot of other people suffers physical and mental frailties and still manage to Put their shoulder to the Wheel and push along. Satan has made it abundantly clear to me that I don't have the strength and fortitude to go on. I have to challenge his message and just get off my backside and do the proper things in my life. Losing weight and gaining good physical health is important, however, the spiritual health is much more important.
Today, I resolve to start anew (I may do this dozens of times before it is accomplished) to read the scriptures and listen to the promptings of the Holy Ghost and share how I feel...Is this a start? You bet it is.... God Bless you Rene'e and take you in his arms for his service in the kingdom of his chosing for you. I have no doubt you will be Celestial...
