Immensely sad and moving at the same time. Thoughts and prayers.

I don't see what she said as sacrilegious at all, rather I see it as following our Savior's great example. This incident, in spite of much sorrow will bring them and many others closer to the Lord.

I haven't seen anyone say they thought it was sacrilegious, I must have missed that. I don't think it is either.

Read her tweet. She is the one that used the word "sacreligious", "I hope that it is not sacreligious to compare [her relationship with Elsie to Heavenly Father's relationship with Christ]."

Ahh, thank you. That's right. I had read it last night and forgotten it was in there.

There was nothing sacrilegious in her tweet. The only slightly cringe-worthy thing for me is just the "in whom I am well pleased" in talking about her daughter. But admittedly that is just my personal pet peeve. For me it runs in the same vein as the signs when a missionary returns home that say "well done, thou good and faithful servant". Or the quote "I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it" attributed to the Savior (so exactly which New Testament book is that found in?). I know the scriptural (or not) phrases are being used to try and express a sentiment they feel, but it feels out of place and forced to use scriptural language to express personal feelings. That's just me though and I would never condemn someone for doing so. But it might make me grin and shoot a knowing glance at my wife however. haha
