'You Can Gather Israel'
Ahmad S. Corbitt
First Counselor in the Young Men General Presidency
Knowing my true identity, helped by my patriarchal blessing, gave me the courage and faith to accept President Spencer W. Kimball's invitation to gather Israel. It will be the same for you, dear friends. Knowing you overcame Satan by the word of your testimony before will help you love, share, and invite now and always - to invite others to come and see, come and help, and come and belong, as that same war for the souls of God's children rages on.

Two hundred years ago, on a beautiful spring morning in 1820, young Joseph Smith, seeking to know which church to join, went into the woods to pray near his home in upstate New York, USA. He had questions regarding the salvation of his soul and trusted that God would direct him.

Family Memory - June 2008: Joe (11) and Michael (10) were overheard planning their honeymoons. Michael said: "Joe, I will go to the movies, but I won't be watching the movie, if you know what I mean."
We had watermelon with our oatmeal this morning. Liana really does know how to pick them. This watermelon is delicious!
My injuries from my fall are minimal. I am so grateful! James and I had prayer and scriptures before he left to go to Holly's.
My big project for today was to put my new china in the china cabinet. First I took everything out that was in the cabinet. It was lots of mismatch items. I stored most of this stuff in boxes in my closet to go through at another time. I wonder how long those boxes will be in my closet.
I had some of my Prince Albert china in the cabinet and a couple of small tea sets. I kept those in the cabinet and added the new set on the bottom row. I love how it looks, no more clutter and disorganization.
Stacy came up this evening to take me to dinner. I told her to tell me when she was in Heber. For some reason I thought I had an hour before she would get to Show Low. I was so wrong. She was there in about 30 minutes. It takes about an hour to go from Vernon to Heber. Anyway I was late. She did some shopping at Safeway and was waiting for me at Licano's when I finally arrived. We both ordered chicken enchiladas with red sauce and a side of rice and beans. I also ordered bean dip to go for James. Stacy paid for everything. She mentioned that she liked the food better at LaCasita and also told me the only kind of protein she is supposed to eat is liquid. She has a condition where her stomach does not digest protein very well. It's called gastro pareisis. Here is the definition I found on Google:
Gastropareisis:
A condition that affects the stomach muscles and prevents proper stomach emptying. Gastroparesis can affect digestion. The cause might be damage to a nerve that controls stomach muscles.
Rare. Fewer than 200,000 US cases per year.
Treatment can help, but this condition can't be cure.
Chronic: can last for years or be lifelong.
Kim and Stacy both are suffering from rare ailments. I wonder why.
Stacy also has discoid lupus. A chronic autoimmune disease affecting the skin. It gets its name from the coin-shaped lesions it produces. This condition causes a severe rash that tends to get worse when exposed to sunlight.
In spite of these ailments she carries on.
Stacy always brings a jigsaw puzzle with her when she comes to visit. She does her puzzle on the coffee table so she can watch TV while she is doing it. I looked at some puzzles on the internet and we found an ice cream one that we loved. I ordered it. James finished up his indexing, got his jammies on, and came in to watch "Death in Paradise" with us.
