"Infuriating Unfairness"
Elder Dale G. Renlund
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Do not let unfairness harden you or corrode your faith in God. Instead, ask God for help. Increase your appreciation for and reliance on the Savior. Rather than becoming bitter, let Him help you become better. Allow Him to help you persevere, to let your afflictions be "swallowed up in the joy of Christ." Join Him in His mission "to heal the brokenhearted," strive to mitigate unfairness, and become a stonecathcer.


The Living Christ
#7
Of Him the Prophet also declared: "And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of Him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of Him: That He lives!
"For we saw Him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that He is the Only Begotten of the Father-

I am practicing personal peace and calling upon the powers of heaven through principles of patience, gentleness, and love unfeigned.

I got up at 5:25 this morning.  I sent a text to Paul and Sheri regarding our family hike on the 18th. I was pleased with the outcome. James and I had prayer. We read from the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants but didn't read a section from the "Come Follow Me" lesson because James needed to leave for his appointment.  This appointment is with the radiation doctor. His actual radiation doesn't start until the 20th. He does have another appointment on the 15th but I'm not sure what it is for. 

James was going to go the Payson way because it is shorter to the job in Phoenix but the marque in Show Low said it was closed. I couldn't figure out why so I checked online. There is a wildfire between Christopher Creek and Forest Lakes due to a prescribed burn that got out of control. How sad.

It's 113 in Phoenix today. I reminded James to wear his hat. He forgot his sunscreen so his hat is very important. Last week when he came home his face was very brown because he forgot his hat.

Yesterday our friend Collin was inducted into the Arizona Fire Service Hall of Fame. Congratulations Collin. I will post some picture at the end of this post.

Most of my day was spent in front of the computer. I blogged for yesterday and then indexed 500 names. When I wasn't in front of the computer I was resting or walking. I managed to get over 10,000 steps. I'm trying to get back in my groove. I watched the 2017 season of "The Great British Baking Show" while I was resting. Sophie was the winner. She is my all-time favorite baker, so far, on any of the seasons I've watched. I have about four more seasons to watch. I like Sophie because she is soo good but also because she keeps calm and she never uses alcohol when she bakes. I know the alcohol burns out when it is cooked but for some reason I admire her for not using it.

James called me at 8:40 this evening. He said he had a headache and was going to bed. I went to bed a little after 10. James fed Luna this morning so I wanted have to feed her this evening.

Yesterday was President Nelson's 97th birthday. I forgot to post a picture of him so I will be posting one today.

My favorite scripture for this week's "Come Follow Me" lesson is found in D&C 101:16-"Be still and know that I am God."
