Overcome The World And Find Rest
President Russell M. Nelson
President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
My plea to you this morning is to find rest from the intensity, uncertainty, and anguish of this world by overcoming the world through your covenants with God. Let Him know through your prayers and your actions that you are serious about overcoming the world. Ask Him to enlighten your mind and send the help you need. Each day, record the thoughts that come to you as you pray; then follow through diligently. Spend more time in the temple, and seek to understand how the temple teaches you to rise above this fallen world.

3 Nephi 10:6
O ye house of Israel whom I have spared, how oft will I gather you as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, if ye will repent and return unto me with full purpose of heart.

I got up at 5:30 this morning and checked our bank account. James needs to call Horne Auto and let them know when his money comes in. It came in and so later he called and told them. He had to finance $10,000 so we will have truck payments for awhile. Sad, because we just got his other truck paid off.
Sheri and Ben both ran this morning, in spite of cold weather. Ben ran in the mud, Sheri drove into Vernon and ran on the pavement.
They are dedicated!
I made whole wheat pancakes this morning. I chopped up pecans and added them to Sheri's and James's pancakes. James said they were like IHOP's harvest nut and grain pancakes. Sheri said they reminded her of her childhood. Ben said they were "pretty good." Evan slept through breakfast.
Sheri finished her M&M puzzle and helped me a little with mine. When we needed a break from doing puzzles we watched one of my favorite March Hallmark movies, "Unexpected Grace" starring Erica Durance and Michael Rady. It was just as good the second time as it was the first.
James just couldn't stop eating today. He made himself eggs and toast this morning, then he had whole wheat pancakes without nuts and then he roasted some pecans and put them in his pancakes and had them. While we were watching the movie he came in with some Black Raspberry Chip ice cream. How does he do it and not gain any weight?
This afternoon while Sheri was making chocolate chip cookies James and I went in to Dollar General with Evan to get some snacks. We took James's truck and Evan drove. He did a pretty good job except when turning to get on the 61 he went into the oncoming lane (no one was coming), and he got confused going in to the Dollar General parking lot and went on the wrong side of the road. That was James's fault because he confused Evan with his backseat driving.
When we got back home Sheri and Ben were playing Yahtzee. I asked them if they wanted me to make Michael's pasta and Italian sausage, and they said yes.
Ben loved the pasta. He did ask me to add more sauce, which I did. Sheri liked it too. I'm not sure if Evan had any. He went upstairs with his snacks I bought him at Dollar General and I didn't see him again for quite awhile. Does this boy eat real food?
James, Sheri, Evan and I did "Come Follow Me" this evening. We read and talked about the parable of the Sower. It was good but James wanted to do more. Afterwards James said the family prayer.
James was scurrying around tonight getting ready to go to the valley early in the morning. Sheri and I watched the movie, "We Wish You A Married Christmas." I warned her it wasn't that good but she likes Kristoffer Polaha and he was in it so we watched it. Afterwards she said: "Yeah, you were right, we should have watched something else. Next time I will trust your judgment."
I worked on my lesson before going to bed and earlier in the day I listened to "Teaching with Power." I love Ben Wilcox.
