"The Gospel Light of Truth and Love"
Elder Alan R. Walker
Of the Seventy
"In addressing the gathering of Israel in the last days, the Lord Jehovah said, "I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts' and will be their God, and they shall be my people."
I feel eternally grateful that from my young age, the law of the Lord started to be engraved deeply in my heart through sacred ordinances in His holy house, How fundamental it is to know that He is our God, that we are His people, and that whatever circumstances surround us, if we are faithful and obey the covenants we have entered into, we can be 'encircled about eternally in the arms of his love."
The Family Proclamation
#5
We declare the means by which mortal life is created to be divinely appointed. We affirm the sanctity of life and of its importance in God's eternal plan.
Inklings
Angels announce the resurrection of Christ - He walks on the Emmaus road - He appears with a body of flesh and bones, eats food, testifies of His divinity, and promises the Holy Ghost - He ascends into heaven.
Up around 8 a.m. I slept in. James brought me some oatmeal and a protein shake for breakfast. He also brought me the morning news: He has already walked 3,000 steps and indexed over 100 names. I feel like a slacker.
Trina went to work today which means Darrel is in charge at home. He gets all the kids off to school and then goes to Walmart to get new tires for his pickup. They tell him they don't have his size and he has to go home and order them online. He is a little put out. I think he wanted to get the new tires today. James and I both worked upstairs indexing, walking, and blogging, the walking and blogging was me, until about 11 when we decided to go get in the In n Out line. We asked Darrel if he wanted anything but he declined saying he really didn't like there burgers. Yeah, but what about their toasted buns? I think that's the real draw. Addy went out to lunch with her friends today. I wonder if they went to Costa Vida.
We got in the line and we were third because they had just opened. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries with a diet coke and James ordered a burger. We shared the fries and still didn't eat them all. I liked that the cheese on my cheeseburger was melted but the burger part was overcooked. I have this craving out of my system for awhile. We ate in the car on the way home.
When Ruby and Lola get home from school Darrel takes them to Chandler Eyecare to pick up Ruby's glasses that were broke. Lola likes to go to see Sheri and to try on glasses. Sheri talked Darrel into getting two pairs of glasses in case Ruby breaks her glasses again.
I continue to see my timer for 20 minutes alternating between indexing, walking, and blogging. James comes back and takes a nap and then around 2:30 he leaves to go check on the LaCroix job in Sun City. He's up on the roof, which is never a good thing, especially when it's over one hundred degrees outside, and loses a lense out of his glasses. Salvador finds it for him and he tries to put it back in and it's not staying. This is a job for Super Sheri. Now Sheri has my glasses to fix and James's.
I worked for awhile this afternoon and then took a shower and got ready for the day. James got home around six p.m. and we went to the Costco on Sossaman. Afterwards we came back down Baseline to Signal Butte and went to Chili's. We both got the Caribbean salad with shrimp. It was soo good!
Trina was home when we got there and was craving chocolate. I wish we would have gotten some at Costco! Lola slept in Darrel and Trina's bed tonight. I asked Ruby about it and she said her mom said this was her last night.
