Helaman 15:7-16:18
How can faith and repentance bring about a change of heart?
When we experience a change of heart we are filled with the Savior's love. The Savior's power comes from His love. Would we suffer less if we loved the Savior more? We cannot pray away another's agency. (These thoughts came from Elder Hales recent conference talk). President Benson says we can stand "firm and steadfast" in the faith as we learn the doctrines taught in the Book of Mormon.

"Every moment of precious prayer can be holy time spent with our Father, in the name of the Son, by the power of the Holy Ghost."
James and I left for the valley today around 9 am. Of course I read to him after we had our scriptures and listened to a conference talk. The second book in the Millennial Glory series is called "Wars of Light."
We stopped at the Arby's at Fountain Hills and had some lunch. We both got the beef and cheddar sandwich. Neither one of us liked it very well.
I dropped James off at the "yard" to get his truck. First we had to go bad and get the keys from Adam so I got to see Joshua for a minute. When I got to Cathi and Terry's I unloaded the car and got ready to go see Charlotte.
Charlotte and I went to Deseret Book in Gilbert where I bought her an Ensign and myself another journal.
I have about 20 of these 5 x 6 1/2 sized journals in all colors
and designs.
We also got a mint truffle and a Stewart's diet orange soda. Next it was on to Costco where I had over $36 in rewards to spend. I ask Charlotte if there was anything she wanted and this is what she picked:
She said we could both use this and divided up the four months supply between the two of us.
I also bought the DVD "Saturdays Warriors." Before leaving we had to stop at the snack bar and get a hotdog and drink for $1.50 each.
Our last stop was Target. I had a $40 gift card and bought toilet paper and laundry detergent, lemons, and protein shakes. It was almost 4 p.m. when I dropped Charlotte off at home. I called James and he was taking Seth and Adam to work and said he would meet me at Sears where I was taking my car to be serviced. They are changing the oil and rotating the tires. When I ask for a lube too, the little Oriental lady said, no lube on this kind of car. Ok.. Off to the mall food court I went to wait for James.

After about two and a half hours my car was finished and we headed for Tempe to see Lois and Dawn, James's mother and sister. We had a nice visit and Lois gave us some pictures of our family for us to keep. She is trying to organize and clean out all of her things. She tried to give me some of her dolls, but I told her I would be back another time.
