Jesus Christ, Death of
Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
Book of Mormon #1
Mormon 3:1-22
*Mormon loved his people in spite of their actions. What should our attitude be towards those we know who don't keep the commandments?
- When he was in the Presiding Bishopric, Bishop Glenn L. Pace admonished us to strive to emulate the love Mormon exhibited: "This prophet had Christlike love for a fallen people. Can we be content with loving less? We must press forward with the pure love of Christ to spread the good news of the gospel. As we do so and fight the war of good against evil, light against darkness, and truth against falsehood, we must not neglect our responsibility of dressing the wounds of those who have fallen in battle." (Ensign, Nov. 1990, 8-9).
Book of Mormon #2
Alma 37-39
Old Testament
Hosea 1-3
General Conference
The Role of the Book of Mormon in Conversion
"My testimony of the divine calling of the Prophet Joseph Smith has been strengthened by prayerfully studying the Book of Mormon."
Up at 6, I'm two hours late. Maybe my body is trying to tell me something.
"Even those who have been grossly unfaithful to God can reestablish their relationship with him if they will but turn back to Him with full purpose of heart." (OTSM, Hosea, p. 103).
The Hebrew name Hosea signifies help, deliverance and salvation. Hosea was a contemporary of Isaiah, Amos, and Micah.
People I have been asked to pray for today:
1. Jared Ammon. His girlfriend is asking him to leave because of his drinking. Stacy and Paul have offered him a place to stay if he will get treatment. Stacy asked us to pray that he would agree to get treatment.
2. Gary Auxier. Bishop Auxier was found passed out in his car. He is unconscious in the hospital and they don't know what's wrong. (Later in the day I received a text that he was awake and was doing much better. They think he had a stroke).
3. Nate Westbrook. Nate is the son of our friends Dave and Rosa. He works on a ranch in the southern part of the state. A horse fell on him and crushed his hand and shoulder.
These are all serious concerns and I will certainly pray for all of these people.
I spent some time today trying to figure out how to add products on Amazon to sell. I'm having a little difficulty and Amazon does not offer a lot of help. In the meantime I am watching Christmas movies and waiting for Kim and Brian to arrive.
I was taking things upstairs this afternoon when I saw James laying on the bed in my office. He didn't see the quilt squares I had laid out on the bed until I pointed them out. When he got up he had a couple of squares stuck to his behind. I'm just wondering why he didn't use the bed in his office.
Kim and Brian arrived this evening. The turkey is in the brine and James and Brian put together the smoker.
Kim said that Brother Pargetter, an old friend of ours who is now in their ward, is in hospice. The family would like us to pray for him.
Family baptisms are the best!
I love this fall photo!
This girl loves to sleep!
