Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.

Old Testament

General Conference

Essential Truths: Our Need to Act

Elder Adilson de Paula Parrella

" Jesus is the promised Messiah, the Lawgiver, the Holy One of Israel, our Lord, our Savior, our Redeemer, our King, our All.

May we all continue to act upon these essential truths and knowledge, offering our obedience to God and His Beloved Son.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."

I finally caught up on my blog but tomorrow I will be going to the valley and will probably get behind again. It is never ending.

"Gratitude is twin sister to humility; pride is a foe to both." - Elder James E. Talmage

James wanted to send out a family text this morning regarding general conference. He had a hard time. It took him about two hours but he didn't give up and he finally accomplished his goal.

I listened to the song, "I Heard Him Come," which was composed by Jeff Goodrich and sung by Afterglow. I also listened to Afterglow sing, "The Greatest Gift."

I worked on my personal history today using a book which gives various assignments. Today I told about my grandparents, Albert Alexander Strickland and Myrtle Mae Rutledge, my grandpa and nannie.

The high today was 54 degrees. All of the snow is gone. 

For lunch we had marinated chicken thighs, lemon pepper asparagus, and a salad. Everything was delicious.

We made a trip to town. We finished "Charity House Courtship," and started the new Sarah Eden book I bought, "Ashes on the Moor." I got all the things to put in Stacy's basket and the cellophane wrap to put around the outside. I couldn't find her favorite candy, Tofifay, so I got some Jordan Almonds at Walgreen's instead. She likes those too and so do James and I.

We came home and watched, "Royal Matchmaker," and finished our steps. I got over 17,000. James fed his bunnies. I got lemon squares at Walmart for us to try. They were just as good as the homemade. The sugar cookies with icing I bought were gross and they got thrown in the trash. 

Conference reminder by my friend Marci.

Happy 90th Birthday Aunt Gene!
