Do You Know Why I As A Christian Believe In Christ?

Elder Ahmad S. Corbitt

Of the Seventy

I then shared with her the good news - the "good tidings of great joy ... to all people" -that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

We have been sleeping with the windows open. Early in the morning we hear noises on the deck. Tom & Tabby. This morning James let them in our bedroom. They are so curious and they ran around sniffing things. James gets so much joy watching them. It makes me love him more.

After prayer and scriptures James went down to work on the fence. He said that elk came through last night and did some more damage. Without the electricity turned on it's pretty easy for these elk to just walk through the fence.

Yesterday when James went to visit Joe Vaal, Joe was distraught because he had tried to to cash in some savings bonds he had bought for his kids and grandkids and the bank wouldn't cash them. He says maybe they are worthless and he should just paper his walls with them like the did German money after World War II. James said he would look into it and get back with him.

James looked into it today and he found out that you cannot cash government savings bonds at a bank. He got the government website with all of the information and took it over to Joe today. Joe was so excited and appreciative. 

I looked up African bees on the internet and discovered they are the same thing as killer bees. They attack people in greater number than other bees and 1,000 people have been reported dead. James built his platform today. Now he just needs wasp spray and Pierce's bee suit.

Sheri called today and said she would like to go to a place in Snowflake she heard about for Max's birthday on Saturday. It's called The Snowflake Smokehouse Bar & Grill. She said a glasses rep told her it was the best barbecue she had ever had. I'm all for good barbecue.

Sunday we are celebrating Lola's birthday here. I am making her a red velvet cake. 

I sent $400 to Stacy as an advance for Jared Ammon to come and work for us the week of the 10th of July. He needs the money to help pay for his last month of rent in the apartment he was in.

Today is Sue Hubble's birthday. I texted to wish her a Happy Birthday. I told her I hoped she had a fun day. She said she would and that she is in Puerto Rico with her nephew. They are on a cruise. I'm assuming she had a great day.

Our greenhouse didn't last long
