Moroni 6:4

And after they had been received unto baptism, and were wrought upon and cleansed by the power of the Holy Ghost, they were numbered among the people of the church of Christ; and their names were taken, that they might be remembered and nourished by the good word of God, to keep them in the right way, to keep them continually watchful unto prayer, relying alone upon the merits of Christ, who was the author and the finisher of their faith."

Book of Mormon

Mormon 8:26-41

10/19 General Conference

"Power to Overcome the Adversary"

Elder Peter M. Johnson

You are elect sons and daughters of God. You have the power to overcome the adversary. The adversary, however, is aware of who you are. He knows of your divine heritage and seeks to limit your earthly and heavenly potential by using the three Ds" Deception, Distraction and Discouragement."

RWC: ...notwithstanding their hardness, let us labor diligently; for if we should cease to labor, we should be brought under condemnation."

I listened to a October 2011 General Conference address by President Nelson called "Covenants." I also listened to Sheri Dew give the talk her book "Worth the Wrestle' is based on at BYU-Idaho. I listened to several devotional talks given at BYU-Idaho, too many to list.

I made Zuppa Tuscana soup and a gingerbread cake with caramel rum sauce. The sauce was good but not as good as I had expected it would be. It seemed a little runny, and grainy, although the flavor was good. We had it over the gingerbread cake. James and I both decided we really aren't big fans of gingerbread cake. It was a little too strong and the molasses gave it a licorice flavor.

I spilled water on my computer this morning. I thought I got it off before it did any damage until I was typing along and all of a sudden my e key wouldn't work, and then the l key. I tried to dry it out with my blow dryer. I made the mistake of sitting the blow dryer on the keys and leaving it. When I came back the keys had melted. There were several. Next it was the battery wouldn't charge. James told me to order a new computer so I got on Walmart online and ordered two computers, one for me and one for James all for under $1,000.

I blogged today, worked on books and walked. This evening James and I watched "Christmas at the Plaza" starring Ryan Pavey.

Happy Thanksgiving!
