"Not As The World Giveth"
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
So, in a world "tossed with tempest, and not comforted," as Jehovah said it would be, how do we find what He called "the covenant of ... peace"? We find it by turning to Him who said He would have mercy on us and "with everlasting kindness" would grant peace to our children. In spite of frightful prophecies and unsettling scriptures declaring that peace will be taken from the earth generally, the prophets, including our own beloved Russell M. Nelson, have taught that it does not have to be taken from us individually! So, let's try to practice peace inl a personal way, applying the grace and healing balm of the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ to ourselves and our families and all those we can reach around us. Fortunately, even astonishingly, this soothing salve is made available to us "without money and without price."

In humility, we declare that in answer to his prayer, God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, appeared to Joseph and inaugurated the "restitution of all things" (Acts 3:21) as foretold in the Bible. In this vision, he learned that following the death of the original Apostles, Christ's New Testament ?church was lost from the earth. Joseph would be instrumental in its return.
Inklings
"I speak of hope in Christ not as wishful thinking. Instead, I speak of hope as an expectation that will be realized. Such hope is essential to overcoming adversity, fostering spiritual resilience and strength, and coming to know that we are loved by our Eternal Father and that we are His children, who belong to HIs family."
- President M. Russell Ballard
I listened to Act in Doctrine this morning. Here are some things that I learned:
I found this quote in the Redheaded Hostess notes:
"Teach your students to see with the eyes they possessed before they had a mortal body; teach them to hear with ears they possessed before they were born; teach them to push back the curtains of mortality and see into the eternities." - Boyd K. Packer
I ordered another mattress cover for our bed. I also ordered a box of Built bars and some notebooks. I listened to Sheri Dew give a fireside for the Sunland England stake. I started a new audio book by Sarah Eden called "A Glimmer of Hope."
James is still working on the front planter. He is filling in the dirt. I finished polishing the wood floor in the family-living room. I also did the kitchen, dining room, hallway and entry floor. I read to James from "Love on Pointe."
James fixed the oven today quite by accident. He had already installed the new igniter but it hadn't worked. He pushed a reset button and walla! The oven works!
One last quote this one about the Sons of Perdition:
"The sin against the Holy Ghost requires such knowledge that it is manifestly impossible for the rank and file to commit such a sin." (Spencer W. Kimball, "The Miracle of Forgiveness" pg. 123).
