Jesus Christ, Prophecies about
Zechariah 3:8
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
Book of Mormon
Alma 30:12-28 What did Korihor teach? A - There should be no Christ (v.12). Hope in Christ is foolish and vain (v.13). No man can know of anything to come (v.13). The prophecies of Christ are foolish traditions of your fathers (v.14). You cannot know of things you do not see (v.15). There could be no Atonement made for the sins of man (v.17). Every man fared in this life according to the management of the creature. (v.17). Every man prospered according to his genius and conquered according to his strength (v.17). Whatsoever a man did was no crime (v.17). When a man was dead that was the end thereof (v.18).
D&C
76:50-70
"Come Follow Me"
76:50-70, 92-95 My Heavenly Father wants me to receive eternal life in the celestial kingdom.

"Poor Little Ones"
Elder Jorge T. Becerra
Of the Seventy
The Lord has stated:
"Wherefore, be faithful; stand in the office which I have appointed unto you; succor the weak, lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees" (D&C 81:5).
"And in doing these things thou wilt do the greatest good unto thy fellow beings, and wilt promote the glory of him who is your Lord" (D&C 81:4).
Restoration Proclamation
#4
We affirm that under the direction of the Father and the Son, heavenly messengers came to instruct Joseph and re-establish the Church of Jesus Christ. The resurrected John the Baptist restored the authority to baptize by immersion for the remission of sins. Three of the original twelve Apostles - Peter, James and John - restored the apostleship and keys of priesthood authority. Others came as well, including Elijah, who restored the authority to join families together forever in eternal relationships that transcend death.
Inklings
2 Kings 5:13-14
And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?
Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Up at 5 a.m. I have extended my study time from 5-7 to 5-8 a.m. I love studying the gospel! Today as part of my "Come Follow Me" study I listened to "Talking Scripture." While I was walking, after listening to a conference talk, I listened to a talk in the Liahona by Elder Soares about the plan of salvation.
I cleaned downstairs putting clean sheets on the bed, vacuuming and dusting. James took Luna for a ride today while I watched the first half of the Suns game. The Suns won, 118 to 108. Booker and Bridges were the high scorers.
I watched two Amish movies while working on the computer. I indexed for the first time this month because I've been doing two blog posts a day to catch up. I changed my goal from 6,000 to 3,000 names this month.
James finished filling in the planter today. He now needs to buy 16 more bags of wood chips.
James had two tender mercies this week. His phone, after not working for a couple of days magically fixed itself. The same thing happened with the oven. How lucky can one person be?
I paid tithing today and caught up my checkbook. Grateful that James has some money so we can actually make some improvements. I think maybe I'm going to get my backyard this year.
Happy Birthday to Jared Ammon
He's 29 today. I hope he has a great day.
school talent show. Michael played the ukelele

came to support them.
I love this picture and the
story it tells!
