A Peculiar People

Tonight Joshua wasn't feeling well, so he asked James for a blessing.  This isn't odd to any of us, but I was feeling grateful that he would just ask, so I thought about Facebooking it.  Then, I realized how odd that may seem to most of my Facebook friends.  I always knew that we were referred to as a peculiar people but it never quite struck me so much as it did tonight.  In this ever changing world I am grateful for the consistency of the Gospel and for all of the peculiarities that come with it, especially Priesthood blessings.
