"Giving Holiness To The Lord"
Bishop L. Todd Budge
Second Counselor in the Presiding Bishopric
Sacrifice is less about "giving up" and more about "giving to" the Lord.
"Remember Thy Suffering Saints, O Our God"
Elder Anthony D. Perkins
Of the Seventy
Keeping covenants unlocks the power of Jesus Christ's atoning sacrifice to provide strength and even joy to you who suffer.
The Living Christ
#3
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.

Follow the counsel of Elder Rasband and look for your own eight, nine, and ten.
Up at 4:18. After my study time and while waiting for the computer to start working I read a chapter from my book, "Written On Our Hearts." This book is written by Emily Belle Freeman and consists of invitations from the Old Testament. In the book of Joshua the people of Israel went to war against all of the cities in the promised land. "As the Lord commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses" (Joshua 11:15). I like this book because the messages are short and to the point. I must leave nothing undone as I strive to keep the commandments of God.
I finished watching "Holiday Calendar" while working on my blog. Around 10:00 I left for town. James took his truck into town and filled up the gas can. When he got home he put gas in my car so I could make it into town. I stopped at the bank and went inside to get cash for the November birthday's, Jared and Evan. Afterwards I drove on to the Circle K across from Walmart to get gas. When I got to Walmart I looked over and realized that my wallet was still out of my purse which normally means I have not put my credit card back. I was sure I had but I checked anyway and it's a good thing I did because it wasn't there. I looked in my back pocket and on the seat and on the floor. My credit card was nowhere to be found so I headed back to Circle K. I tried to check the pump I was at but someone else was using it so I went inside instead. I asked the cashier if anyone had found a credit card. She asked me my name and when I told her she handed me my card. She said I had left it in the pump. Wow! I didn't think you could pump gas with your card still in the pump. It's a wonder James and I survive. The Lord really does watch over us.
I listened to about 1/3-1/2 of "Unshaken" for Come Follow Me. After doing my shopping at Walmart I stopped at Panda and picked up some chow mien bowls for James and I. I got the sesame chicken and I got James the walnuts and shrimp. James had made me a list of things to get at our local health food store, "Nature's Realm", so that was my next stop. I spent $165.00. Vitamins, and healthy supplements are expensive!
When I get home I walk and clean. James worked outside until it was time to come in and get ready for his elders quorum meeting which was at six at the church. While he's gone I clean the blinds in the dining room and kitchen, sweep and mop the kitchen floor, and put a new tablecloth on the dining room table. The missionaries are coming for dinner tomorrow night so I'm getting an early start.
I watched a movie while walking. James and I finish "The Matchmaker's Lonely Heart" while I practice my lettering and while James and I both walk. We were in bed by 9:30. James holds me in his arms and says, "I adore you." What a nice way to go to sleep.
