Jesus Christ, Prophecies about
Daniel 9:26
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Book of Mormon
Alma 24:19-30 What happens to those who turn away from a great knowledge of things pertaining to righteousness? *When your heart becomes hardened to the truth, everything about you changes. Your countenance, attitude and even your personality. We can be found responsible for driving others from the truth. Little by little they become instruments of the devil. . . .

"The Principles of My Gospel"
Elder David A. Bednar
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Learning, understanding, and living gospel principles strengthen our faith in the Savior, deepen our devotion to Him, and invite a multitude of blessings and spiritual gifts into our lives. Principles of righteousness also help us to look beyond our personal preferences and self-centered desires by providing the precious perspective of eternal truth as we navigate the different circumstances, challenges, decisions, and experiences of mortality.
"Covid-19 And Temples"
President Russell M. Nelson
President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
You may be wondering when you will be able to return to the temple. Answer: Your temple will be open when local government regulations allow it. When the incidence of Covid-19 in your area is within safe limits, your temple will be reopened. Do all you can to bring Covid numbers down in your area so that your temple opportunities can icnrease.
Ten Virtues

Forgiveness and Mercy
The willingness to forgive is a sign of spiritual and emotional maturity. Imagine a world filled with individuals willing both to apologize and to accept an apology. Is there any problem that could not be solved among people who possessed the humility and largeness of spirit and soul to do either - or both - when needed?
Inklings
John 6
Jesus feeds the five thousand - He walks on the sea - He is the living manna sent from God - Salvation is gained by eating living bread - Jesus explains how men eat His flesh and drink His blood - Peter testifies that Jesus is the Messiah.
Happy Anniversary to Stacy & Paul
32 years and 5 boys
The girls and I worked on puzzles this morning and while we were working I explained the Plan of Salvation to them. I told them about Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden and how Satan tempted them to partake of the forbidden fruit. When they partook they were cast out of the Garden of Eve and could no longer be in the presence of God. They had fig leaves for clothes and then skins of animals when they were cast out. I told them that because they had fallen from the presence of God they could not return to be in His presence without a Savior. Heavenly Father sent Jesus to be our Savior. If we repent and if we are baptized and receive the Holy Ghost we can get on the Covenant Path and follow Jesus. Later I asked Lola when we got together to have family prayer what she remembered about the story of Adam and Eve. She said Satan talked to them and they ate the bad fruit so they go kicked out of the garden. Love this girl!
Ruby, Lola, Rowan and I drove over to the Halcomb's this morning to pick up the sisters birthday cards for July. Rowan drove on the way back. This was his first time driving the Razr.
We had macaroni and cheese for lunch. Rowan also made a ham and cheese sandwich. He and Ruby went for a walk after lunch down to the tree where Ian built the bench. I told them about Aaron's kids climbing that tree. I told Ruby to be careful and watch where she walks because of snakes. That's actually when Rowan decides to go. He turns over an old board and finds a small rattle snake. He took a video of himself playing with the snake and sent it to Trina. She said she almost had a heart attack. He killed the snake afterwards and then felt bad that he did it.
The girls and I watch the movie "Away and Back", one of my favorites about migrating trumpeter swans in Washington state. Now Ruby and Lola love it too. After the movie we went to Dollar General. We decided we are going to have a tea party tomorrow for the Grapp's. We invited them and they are excited to come. Rowan went with us and picked out his favorite cereal, Cinnamon Toast Crunch. It was a fun trip and Lola got some costume jewelry for her birthday. I gave Ruby and Lola each a set of Doodle Dazzle markers. They write glittery silver and are outlined in another color. The girls made signs for the tea party. We are having it tomorrow at 3 p.m.
For dinner I made biscuits and bacon, and Kodiak waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. The kids loved it. After dinner we turned on the Suns game for Rowan and I to watch. While watching I played Clue with Lola, Ruby, and James. I thought I had won and went to the center of the board to make an accusation but I was wrong because the knife card was missing and so was the rope and a room card. We found all of the missing cards except the knife so I made a knife card. We had no winner. On the other hand we did have a winner of the Suns-Clippers game. The Suns won 133-103 and are the Western Conference Champs. Chris Paul had 41 points. He got shoved by Patrick Beverly and Beverly was ejected from the game.
Chris Paul and Devin Booker
They each made 41 points in
separate games.
I finished my indexing goal of 6,000 names. I actually did 6,010 names.
