"God Loves His Children"
Elder Taniela B. Wakolo
Of the Seventy
Joseph Smith, the Prophet of the Restoration, was chastened. After Joseph lost the 116 pages of the Book of Mormon manuscript, the Lord both corrected and showed love by saying: "You should not have feared man more than God. . . . You should have been faithful. . . . Behold, thou art Joseph, and thou wast chosen. . . . Remember, God is merciful; therefore, repent" (D&C 3:7-10).
"They Cannot Prevail; We cannot Fall"
Elder Chi Hong (Sam) Wong
Of the Seventy
Some of us may think, "The gospel is good, so we need to put it in our lives, maybe once a week." Just going to church once a week is not enough to build upon the rock. Our entire lives should be filled with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel is not part of our life, but our life is actually part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Think about it. Is that not true? Our mortal life is only part of the whole plan of salvation and exaltation.

Optimism
My plea is that we stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. I am suggesting that as we go through life, we "accentuate the positive." I am asking that we look a little deeper for the good, that we still our voices of insult and sarcasm, that we more generously compliment and endorse virtue and effort.
I got up at 5:30 this morning. I left my portable Mifi (Wifi) at Sheri's so I had to go into the dining room to work on my blog. James fixed me oatmeal for breakfast. We had scriptures and prayers together and then I sat down on the recliner for a few minutes to rest. I watched The Great British Baking Show.
James went out to work on the Cat, trying to dig the mud out of the trenches he dug. He actually wound up sliding into the fence. It is still too muddy. He was quite frustrated.
I indexed for over an hour and did two blog posts.
Kacey said Charlie slept in this morning. Last night when they got home, around 10 p.m. she wanted to play with all of her toys, which she did.
James talked to his friend Sal J. today. He has had Covid. He said he lost over 40 lbs. Wow! Wouldn't that be nice.
Sal is trying to push the Chacon job through and James is excited about getting the permits for LaCroix.
I am so overwhelmed and excited about the sunflowers that I walked around outside taking pictures of them today. Our yard and field is filled with them.
We have completely lost our satellite signal. I texted Vickie first but she said they no longer have any equipment so I would need to call Dish, which I did. I had to pay $95 up front for a technician to come out. One is coming tomorrow.
James and I took a drive to Dollar General to get me some milk for my cereal. James also got himself a bag of Dove chocolates and me a bag of chocolate covered raisins which we didn't need but enjoyed.
We stopped at the post office and picked up the mail. My Mifi was in the mail. Thank you Sheri!
For dinner James had fish and cabbage. I had a Kodiak protein cake.
I listened to "Don't Miss This" and last week's "Inklings" where we discussed Elder Wakolo's talk, "God Loves His Chilren" and Jeremiah 29-31.
I also had so much fun playing with my sealing wax today, practicing.
the envelopes with one of these seals.
I have a couple of other designs too but these are my favorite.
I read chapter three from The MindBody Toolkit. The title is: Focus on What You Want. "Problems cannot be solved with the same mindset that created them." AFFIRMATION: "I am powerful and create whatever I truly desire.
I also read a chapter from "God Will Prevail about Hesed, or Covenant Love. Awesome!
