3 Nephi 11:11

And behold, I am the light and the life of the world: and I have drunk out of that bitter cup which the Father hath given me, and have glorified the Father in taking upon me the sins of the world, in the which I have suffered the will of the Father in all things from the beginning.

'The Healing Power Of Jesus Christ

Cristina B. Franco

Second Counselor in the Primary General Presidency

To heal brokenness by coming unto Him, we need to have faith in Jesus Christ. "Having faith in Jesus Christ means relying completely on Him - trusting in HIs infinite power . . . and love. It includes believing His teachings. It means believing that even though we do no understand all things, He does. Because He has experienced all our pains, afflictions, and infirmities, He knows how to help us rise above our daily difficulties.

Restoration Proclamation

P8 S2

The earth will never again be the same, as God will "gather together in one all things in Christ" (Ephesians 1:10).

Well today is the worst pain I've had so far since I was struck with this malady. I cannot walk without pain and I ask James to please go downstairs and get the walker. 

After scripture and prayer with James I make a grocery list for him and he goes into town to get the weekly groceries. He only called one or two times. Now he knows why it takes me three hours to drive, shop, and drive home. He did stop and get me a taco and a burrito supreme from Taco Bell.

James had planned on inviting Anthony and the missionaries over for biscuits and gravy tomorrow but if I am not better he will probably cancel.

I did absolutely nothing today that required any movement. I did read scriptures, study the "Come Follow Me" lesson and listen to a couple of conference talks. No indexing, blog, or walking. I was just too miserable. 

I watched "Christmas List" this evening again, the third time this year, starring Alicia Witt and Gabriel Hogan. 

Kathy Crane, our next door neighbor,  has Covid.

One of my favorite meals
