"I Love To See the Temple"
President Henry B. Eyring
Second Counselor in the First Presidency
I bear solemn testimony that we are children of a loving Heavenly Father. He chose His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, to be our Savior and Redeemer. The only way to return to live with Them and with our Family is through the ordinances of the holy temple. I testify that President Russell M. Nelson holds and exercises all the keys of the priesthood that make eternal life possible for all of God's children. I so testify in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.
The Living Christ
he instituted the sacrament as a reminder of His great atoning sacrifice. He was arrested and condemned on spurious charges, convicted to satisfy a mob, and sentenced to die on Calvary's cross. He gave His life to atone for the sins of all mankind. His was a great vicarious gift in behalf of all who would ever live upon the earth.
Inklings
He will be our refuge and strength, our very present help in time of trouble. - Psalm 46:3

James leaves before 5 for the LaCroix job in Sun City. I left before 6 for Walmart. I am making barbeque beef for the Bowen's and I need to get the chuck roast started by 8 a. m. I did my shopping and managed to get home before 8 to start the roast in the crockpot. the traffic was light on the way in to town and there were very few shoppers at Walmart. There were a lot of workers pushing around carts as there always are. On the way home the traffic was heavier. I started the rolls to rise and then took a break. After my break I began the Texas sheetcake like the one I made for the missionaries.
I baked the cake in the 1/2 sheetcake pan I had made the previous one in, but this one overflowed all over the oven. I baked it five minutes longer than it called for and then took it out to cool. The frosting turned out great. When the cake had cooled a few minutes longer, I frosted the cake and set it aside.
I watched the latest episode of Chesapeake Shores while eating my lunch of salad, cornbread and a hotdog. All of the way to town and back I listened to Brother Halverson discuss this week's "Come Follow Me", D&C 98-101. I finished while I did things here at home. I finished my blog for Saturday.
This afternoon I shredded the beef which had shrunk quite extensively. I took a bite. It was delicious! I drained the liquid and put the barbeque sauce in with it. I put the crockpot on low and then on warm.
I now made the homemade kid friendly macaroni and cheese. There was more of this than anything else except maybe the rolls, which I also baked this afternoon. I gave them one dozen. I cut the cake into small pieces and put everything into foil containers. At 4:40 I left for the Stanford store where I am meeting Sister Bowen and Sister Hubble. Sister Hubble made a salad and jello. I gave Sister Bowen a hug. Sean, her husband, is still in the hospital and now his brother is there too. This family has had so many trials recently, my heart goes out to them.
I came home to clean the kitchen. I had saved myself some meat and macaroni and cheese, rolls, and cake. I had a small dinner. The meat and the macaroni and cheese were very good mixed together.
I went outside to feed Luna before it got dark then came back in and watched the newest Hallmark movie, "High Flying Romance" starring Jessica Lowndes and Christopher Russell and then watched an older movie that I love called "Timeless Love."
Time for bed. I miss James. He is staying at Sheri's.
Steve is James's friend
