'Eyes To See'

Michelle D. Craig

First Counselor in the Young Women General Presidency

"What am I doing that I should stop doing?" and "What am I not doing that I should start doing?"

"Stop looking at your phone when you are waiting in lines."

With all of my heart I do not want to be like the priest or the Levite on the road to Jericho - one who looks and passes by. But too often I think I am.

Restoration Proclamation

P4 S4

As a companion scripture to the Bible, the Book of Mormon testifies that all human beings are sons and daughters of a loving Father in Heaven, that He has a divine plan for our lives, and that His Son, Jesus Christ, speaks today as well as in day of old.

Happy Birthday Cathi!

We love you!

girls, Lily and Sophie.

My sciatic nerve pain was bad enough today that I stayed home from church and watched the meeting on Zoom. When James got home he administered and passed the sacrament to me. 

Today was testimony meeting and I enjoyed Owen Peeler's testimony the very most. 

I cannot sit very well without being in pain, so I laid back on the recliner and watched TV. 

I talked to the kids today about starting a "Come Follow Me" study group which would include the kids. I wanted to do it once a week but it looks like it is going to be once a month. We will limit the time to one Zoom broadcast, which is around 40 minutes. Our first one will be next week. I am looking forward to it.

James did indexing today and ministering interviews. He was a good example to me today as to what we should do on the sabbath day. He also made me a delicious lunch of leftover steak, salad and mashed potatoes. This evening for dinner I made grilled cheese and soup.

James and I set some goals together today. I must have been really out of it because I did not write them down. I hope James did. 

We thought Alex broke his leg this evening but it turned out to be a bad sprain. He went to Urgent Care and got a boot. They will not dispense pain meds at an Urgent Care. I never knew.
