"A Framework for Personal Revelation"

Elder Dale G. Renlund

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

We need to understand the framework within which the Holy Ghost functions. When we operate within the framework, the Holy Ghost can unleash astonishing insight.

I slept in until almost 7. I guess my body is adjusting to the change of seasons. I hurried to get breakfast and do scriptures and prayers before leaving for the temple. Well I didn't actually leave until 9:30 but the morning went by very quickly. James did not go to Globe today so I left him home alone. He was busy doing something on the computer when I left. 

Ruth has longer legs than Catherine so I thought she would do better in the front but the seat was pushed up and it looked like she was a little crowded. When we got to the temple I told the two of them to go ahead that I would be there soon. I wanted to get my recommend out before going to the recommend desk. I couldn't find it. I looked in my suitcase and when it wasn't there I said a prayer and looked in my wallet again. This time I found it stuck between two credit cards. 

There were 22 sisters in our session and 12 brothers. These are the people from our ward who were in the session: Maxine and Gary T., Barbara and Fred K., Debra M., Catherine, Ruth, and me. Barbara B., was here at the temple also but she did sealings instead of a session. Our ward was well represented the first day the temple was open after being closed for over two weeks.

On the way home we stopped at Sonic. Catherine and Ruth both got American dogs and a drink. I got two Chicken Slingers, one for myself and one for James. It was Dutch treat today.

No rain yet but it looks like it's coming, which it does, after dark this evening and lots of it. 

Ruth and my neighbor, Kathy are good friends. I asked Ruth how Kathy was doing and she said she seems to be back to her old self. They canned salsa last week and Kathy seemed to have lots of energy. 

After dropping Ruth and Catherine off at Catherine's and saying our goodbyes I head to the post office to pick up the mail. The pants I ordered for James are here and the supplements I ordered arrived also. When I get home I give James his chicken slinger. He eats it and then goes in to take a nap. He says he just got back from Home Depot and it was very frustrating trying to hobble around the store. I guess it made him tired. 

James indexed for awhile and then he said he needed to go over to the Peeler's to measure something for the house in Globe. I think it's the bar in the shower. Donna was home alone because Owen is spending the night in Globe because the carpet is being installed tomorrow. When James gets home he wants to know who Donna's ministering sisters are. Patsy T. and Chris B. He says she has an appointment at the doctor's tomorrow and will be driving in by herself. He's worried about her driving so I call and ask if I can take her. The only problem is her appointment is at 10:15 and I have an appointment at Barnett-Delaney-Perkins at 1:45. Donna assures me she will be fine so I agree and say goodbye.

The General Conference talks are now online! I am so happy! I start listening to the talks and running them off. We will have a meeting next week to decide what our lesson lineup will be for the next six months.

While I am working on my blog and walking James comes into the bedroom and says he wants to either read from our book our watch a movie. I turn on a movie I have seen and think he will like: "The Marry-Go-Round" starring Brennan Elliott and Amanda Schull.

This is the size house we need
