Of the Seventy
Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, want us to have joy. President Russell M. Nelson has taught: "The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives. When the focus of our lives is on God's plan of salvation, . . . we can feel joy regardless of what is happening, or not happening, in our lives."

"How We Gather Israel Today"
Listened to Follow Him this morning. I also read from "The Holy Invitation." This is a quote by Joseph Smith from that book:
"I want you all to know God, to be familiar with Him, . . . When we know how to come to Him, God begins to unfold the heavens to us and tell us all about it."
I am struggling right now. Barbara Goodman was such a dear friend and I am so sad over her loss. We still needed her here. My heart aches for Pierce.
The Grapp's have not been back to our ward since Thomas was released. It was the day of the Primar program, November 14th. Rumors are circulating about why they aren't coming and that they are attending another ward. James has tried to talk to Thomas but Thomas just says that everything is fine. Cammy acts that way too.
Sheri is struggling with her boys, except for Evan. Lots of heartache with our older grandchildren and the decisions they are making. We have hope in the younger kids.
My health and James's health is not what it should be. With both struggle with pain. I quit taking methotrexate because my hair is falling out and so I am not feeling as well as I should.
We spoke to Collin at the post office today and also Sandra Wilhelm. The post office is where it's at in Vernon. I got the book I've been waiting for, "The Holy Covenants", a sequel to "The Holy Invitation." I also got my Christmas present to myself, a car vacuum. I hope I can keep my car a little cleaner with it. That's one of my goals for the new year, keep my car clean!
I watched two good Christmas movies today, "Christmas Star", and "Fixing Christmas." I got a little cranky with James when he said that Cafe Kathy's chicken was full of sugar. I actually looked the recipe up online to show him it did not have any ingredients that contained sugar.

Happy Birthday Carmen!
Reminds me of when we had our tree
in Chandler and the pit was filled with presents
and then went right into the bathroom to
