I read the following in Doctrinal Commentary on the Book of Mormon Volume 4:

"Zion shall begin to be built before the time of Christ's second coming in glory. The Saints who are gathered in all nations shall live for a season in love and peace (despite the degenerative condition of the world) prior to the Millennium. Because of the goodness of those who have given thenselves fully to the Lord and his cause, their meetings shall be pentecostal outpourings: the Spirit of God shall truly burn like a fire in their hearts. Prophecy and revelation and healings and angelic ministrations shall abound, for the faith of the Saints shall have rent the damning veil of unbelief and opened the heavens to the gifts and wonders enjoyed by the former-day Saints." Wow! I am looking forward to that day. Can you imagine being in a sacrament meeting where the Spirit is so strong that prophecy, revelation, healings and angelic ministrations abound?

James and I went to both Ben and Max's flag football games today. Ben caught a touchdown pass and two extra point passes. Although his friend Ian Wanlass was player of the game Ben was right up there with him.

Max carried the ball several times in his game and that boy can run. I think he might have some "Maxwell" speed genes.

Hallelujah! I finally finished racking up all of the leaves! Now I've got some major weed killing and cleanup to do outside.

I had a carne asada burrito from Filiberto's for dinner. I saved half for tomorrow. It was quite delish.

Alex helped James finish getting our toy hauler ready for sale. The people came and picked it up today. They are so excited to have it but not as excited as we are to have the money from selling it. Now if we could just sell a couple of lots.
