As I listen to god in prayer, my desires align with His divine purposes. I discover that His plans exceed my own and that true joy is found in following Him and embracing His higher purposes.
Focus On Jesus Christ
Brother Milton Camargo
First Counselor in the Sunday School General Presidency
Our covenants help us focus our attention, our thoughts, and our actions on Christ. As we "cleave unto the covenants we have made," we can more easily identify "the things of this world" that we should "lay aside" and "the things of a better world" we shoudl diligently seek.
Have I Truly Been Forgiven?
Elder K. Brett Nattress
Of the Seventy
"While I was harrowed up by the memory of my many sins, behold, I remembered also to have heard my father prophesy unto the people concerning the coming of one Jesus Christ, a Son of God, to atone for the sins of the world....
"And oh, what joy, and what marvelous light I did behold"
(Alma 36: 17, 20)
Brother Robles rode his backhoe from his place to Barbara's yesterday to dig the hole for her septic tank. James called him after talking to Greg Anderson who was supposed to do it. Greg is sick and his backhoe is broke down.
Brother Robles, Jacob, finished the hole this morning. It took him so much longer when he was digging the hole and the lines for his septic tank because of the huge bolders. Barbara's was a piece of cake.
I left for the temple this morning at 9:30. I picked up my friend Sue Hubble at the Dollar General parking lot a little before 10. Ruth Wallace is coming with Bridget Jordan and Catherine says she has a stomachache.
I had forgotten to make an appointment until I was getting ready this morning. When I made my appointment there was only three seats left so yes, the session was quite full, some of the sisters had to sit on the brothers side. Karen Gilliland was sitting in front of me. We also saw our friend Judy Hunter who works on Wednesday mornings.
We saw Ruth and Bridget when we went in and Ruth gave both myself and Sue a name. I asked if she was getting close to finishing all of her family names and she said no, she still had thousands.
After our session Bridget asked if she could follow us to Sonic as she wasn't sure which way to go and Ruth was a little confused and couldn't tell her.
Sue and I ordered our lunch on the Sonic app so our food was ready when we arrived. Ruth and Bridget were right behind us.
Sue and I had a nice visit. She is pretty amazing. She said she had just finished fixing her dryer by watching a YouTube video. The dryer is a 1989 model and most people would have just bought a new dryer. Sue said that's why our landfills are so full. She said she had also replace broken toilets and named a few other household repairs she had done.
When I dropped Sue off at the Dollar General parking lot I decided to go in and get some dessert. I bought a two-pack of turtle brownies and ate them on the way home.
Happy Birthday Brian & Dallin!
They will be gone for one year.
