The Virtue Of The Word

Elder Mark D. Eddy

Of the Seventy

President Russell M. Nelson:

"To me, the power of the Book of Mormon is most evident in the mighty change that comes into the lives of those who read it 'with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ.' Many converts forsake much that they once held dear in order to abide by the precepts of that book. ... It will be your most effective instrument in bringing souls unto Jesus the Christ."

D&C 59:8

Thou shalt offer a sacrifice unto the Lord thy God in righteousness, even that of a broken heart and a contrite spirit.

I got up at 5:16 this morning from the recliner. My knee seems a little better. 

James is still waiting for the tire he ordered for his trailer to come. He ordered it online from Walmart and he can't find the order. 

I ordered a set of cookware on Dec. 27th and it hasn't come either so I sent them an email saying I was going to cancel my order if I didn't hear from them.

I was not able to schedule the timeshare online so I called Vistana. The guy I spoke to said there was not two rooms available on the week of the May 28th or June 4th. I complained and said I had been doing this for 20 years and never had a problem and that was my assigned week. It didn't do any good. The soonest I could schedule was for July 22nd. Grrr. Also couldn't schedule from Sunday to Sunday but had to schedule from Saturday to Saturday. I am not a happy camper.

Update on Laura from Dave to Cathi to me:

Just got back from CT scan. Waiting for full team to come then the tube comes out. She woke up around 7 - slowly. Doing good. Still bleeding/draining. More on right side but decreasing. Ventilator only at 10% rest on her own.

Update an hour later:

Back to OR to go in and flush right side. A little too much fluid drain is not handling. But they are very happy with her. Ahead of most patients so far. Breathing on her own. But won't remove tube until tomorrow. The drainage is very normal in transplants.

I worked on my closet today and sat things in the bedroom so I could decided what I want to keep, put somewhere else, throw away and give away. It is a process. My goal is to take at least two boxes full of stuff to Goodwill each week. My two boxes aren't quite full yet.

James put in a light over my desk in the bedroom this evening. While he was working I walked and went into the family room and watched a movie on Netflix called "Dog Gone." It is based on a true story and stars Rob Lowe and Kimberly Williams-Paisley. I really liked Rob Lowe as the 17 year old boys dad. It was a good movie with a great message, something you don't always see on Netflix.

Stacy called me again today to "talk business." She loves her note business but is at a standstill right now because she is out of money. She needs to mail out some letters to leads and wanted to know if I could help. I told her I would see how much envelopes cost and then told her that postage stamps are now 60 cents. She was blown away.

James and I are liking our new book, "A Generation Rising."

Frozen water bubble.
