Jesus Christ, Son of man

D&C 130:16-17

16 I was left thus, without being able to decide whether this coming referred to the beginning of the millennium or to some previous appearing, or whether I should die and thus see his face.

17 I believe the coming of the Son of Man will not be any sooner than that time.

Book of Mormon

3 Nephi 10:1-19

"Come Follow Me"

Lamentations 1; 3 The Lord can relieve the sorrow we experience because of sin. Lamentations 1

Let us remember that each person on this earth is a child of God and He loves each one.

 James and I had prayer before he left to work at Barbara's. 

While he was gone I listened to the next lecture in the Hillsdale course I am taking. This one is called, "The Rise of Tribal Politics."

While I was blogging I listened to "Follow Him." S. Michael Wilcox was the guest this week. I love him. He talked about Jeremiah being a political prophet and how no one listened to him. He quoted Confuscius:

"Only when personal life is cultivated, the family will be regulated. Only when family is regulated that state will be in order. And when the state is in order there will be peace in the world."

I blogged for Monday, Tuesday, and started Wednesday and needed a break. I went into the family room and turned on Netflix. They had some Christmas movies listed, most were ones I had seen. I turned on The Princess Switch starring Vanessa Hudgeons. I began watching it and fell asleep through most of it. I watched the next one in the series and that's what I was doing when James came in. Three Vanessa Hudgeons is a bit much. She plays three characters in this second movie. 

James made us some potstickers for dinner and then went in to work in the bathroom. I thought I was getting better but I am feeling so tired and achy this evening and my left foot is still swollen.

Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas starts today. I watched the newest Christmas movie , "Noel Next Door." It was cute and I liked it. 

I sent out my last Relief Society email regarding Sunday's lesson. We are discussing President Nelson's talk, "Overcome the World and Find Rest."
