Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
To receive eternal life, we must "come unto Christ, and be perfected in him." As we come unto Christ and help others do the same, we participate in God's work of salvation and exaltation, which focuses on divinely appointed responsibilities.

The Holy Covenants
I downloaded OS 15.2 on my phone this morning. As I was meditating on what to pray for my mind was on the family proclamation and marriage in our society today. It seems as if we live in a "throw away" society, which includes our marriages.
I like this quote by Dallin H. Oaks that is found in this week's "Come Follow Me" lesson:
"I believe our attitude toward and use of the family proclamation is a test for this generation. I pray for all Latter-day Saints to stand firm in that test." ("The Plan and the Proclamation").
I love Brother Sweat's new book, "The Holy Covenants". I read from it today and felt like I was underlining everything!
James and I went to down today. We went to Walmart, Culvers, Tractor Supply, and the gas station. Gas is still $3.65 in Show Low and Chandler. In Payson you can get it for $3.45.
I got a chocolate strawberry mixer at Culver's and it was delicious. I also got an avocado southwestern salad which was okay. James got a fish sandwich and our order was over $20. We keep saying we aren't going to go to Culver's anymore because it is so expensive.
Of course we got horse feed at Tractor Supply. I bought croissants and Cello's chocolate covered cherries at Walmart and some calendars to give as Christmas gifts. We said hello to our friends Dean & Donna Lundgren.
James continued working on the bathroom leak. He discovered the problem and fixed it. Now he has to finish fixing the drywall downstairs.
I watched these movies today:
"Blending Christmas" starring Haylie Duff and Aaron O'Connell.
"Sister Swap: Christmas in the City" starring Kimberly Williams Paisley and Ashley Williams.
"A Royal Queens Christmas" starring Megan Park and Julian Morris. They we all entertaining but none of them made my top 10 list.
I wrapped four calendars today while watching movies. Whoop de do! It was cold, windy and we had a little rain today.
It's a Small World
Fixing the drywall. Calendars on chair
