Our Earthly Stewardship
Bishop Gerald Causse'
Presiding Bishop
Second principle: As stewards of God's creations, we have a duty to honor and care for them.
As God's children, we have received the charge to be stewards, caretakers, and guardians of His divine creations. The Lord said that He made "every man accountable, as a steward over earthly blessings, which I have made and prepared for my creatures."
100 Favorite Verses - "An Abundant Life"
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
12-14 inches of snow this morning. The world looks beautiful, especially the trees!
Fernie doesn't seem to mind that her car is covered with snow. I think she wishes she could stay.
James scraped the snow off for her.
Bishop Hunsaker came and bladed our driveway and road so we could get out. After what happened with Pierce on Monday, getting the truck out of the mud, and now today the bishop blading our road, Michael said: "Wow, you guys really do live the law of consecration!
Michael and Fernie watched the second Harry Potter movie, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" before getting ready to leave for home.
Charlie asked today if she could bring the Book of Mormon in the car with her. Kacey said yes, she could. Kacey made a video of Charlie reading from the Book of Mormon. I tried to download it here. It looks like it downloads but then it won't play. I tried several times and I am so sad that I can't make it work because this is something that I want to remember forever. It is on my phone. This is what Charlie said:
"On Valentine's Day they gived, and shared, and loved and repented and told the truth and had so much fun." Those words she used are scripture words and look how many ands she used, just like the Book of Mormon! Wow! I am so impressed with this little four year old girl. I wish I could hear her prayers!

In the early afternoon Michael and Fernie were ready to leave for home. We were ready to go into town and followed right behind them.
and hope they come back soon!
as we got on the road.
We took the truck to town because the driveway still needs to be shoveled in order to get the car out. I reminded James I was going to the temple tomorrow and he said, "What time?" I am leaving at 9:30.
The highway is cleared and after following Michael & Fernie for awhile James passed them and honked loud and clear. They turn in at Maverick and we continue on to Walmart. James drops me off at the front door while he goes to get a parking space. Later he finds me and helps me do my shopping. These are my three meals for this week: 1 - Cashew chicken 2 - Tacos and 3 - Butternut squash risotto.
While still in Walmart so I can use their wifi I text in our order to Sonic. Two Slingers and a small order of mozarella sticks which are on sale for $1.49. Yummy!
We finished volume2 of Fire & Steel, The Storm Descends, and start volume 3, The Shadow Falls. Hans is friends with Adolph Hitler and we see how Adolph develops his political views. It is interesting but I hope Hans doesn't follow him into World War II. Right now it is only 1919. There are a total of six books in this series.
I also finished my book, "The Best Intentions" and started a new book, "Miss Newbury's List."
After putting the groceries away it was time for a break. I watched one of my favorite Up channel movies, "Can't Buy Me Love." After rest time I got up and came over to the computer to work on my blog and to listen to Tyler and Taylor on Scripture Central again. I like their stepping stone approach to the Beatitudes. After finishing taking notes on Tyler and Taylor I started listening to Lynne Wilson who is also on Scripture Central. I have printed out most of her PowerPoint and am deciding which slides I want to use.
My knee really hurts but I manage to get my 12,000 steps. I go to bed in my bed but then move to the bedroom recliner and then in to the family room recliner where sleep eludes me for a couple of hours.
