Affirmation: I am an eternal spirit, and I had many experiences before my mortal life began. I am using the Lord's precious gift of agency to continue on the path towards the Savior as I act with integrity and faith, even when nobody is watching.
I got a call from my friend Karen Schneider today. In the past, we have gone to lunch together in our birthday month. She was calling me to wish me a Happy birthday month and to let me know she may not be able to go out to lunch. Karen has had cancer since 2007 when she and I still lived in Chandler. I remember when she had surgery for kidney cancer and I took her dinner. This is what she wrote to me when I asked her what kind of stage 4 cancer that she has:
Kidney cancer that has metastasized to the liver. I am thankful and feel blessed that I am still able to be here. I had kidney surgery in 2007. I was okay until 2017, then the cancer returned with metastasis and I have been on chemo and immunotherapy to manage the cancer since then.
I had no idea it was stage 4 until she mentioned it today. She is somewhat of a miracle I would say.
I got a call from Stacy today. She is worried about not having any money for Joshua's birthday. I told her I would send him a little extra to buy school clothes with.
James and I made a trip to town to get my new medication, Leflunomide. I also needed to get ingredient to make a salad for Kenny Johnson's funeral on Saturday. We also got birthday cards for both Rowan and Joshua and 50 lbs of kitty litter.
After buying the birthday cards we hurried to make it to the post office before 4:30 when they pick up the mail. I was signing and addressing the cards on the way. We made it just in time.
After we were finished at the post office we went back to Panda and Firehouse for something to eat. I wanted orange chicken and chow mein noodles and James wanted a sub.
We got home before Kim and Brian arrived at 8:30. We are so happy to have them here.
Sheri texted me today: "Evan asked me about the denying the Holy Ghost. He said if that's the worst thing you can do does that apply to his brothers, specifically Xander. Can you explain to me more about that so I can explain to him. We were in a hurry during scriptures last night so we didn't get to talk about it in depth. I'm going to talk to him tonight.
I gave her some references and so did Hillary Jiminez at work. I told her to go to the Gospel Library app, scriptures - study helps - topical guide - Holy Ghost, unpardonable sin against.
I love that Evan is so concerned about his brothers!
Notes & Quotes
"There are many voices today trying to lower our voices as disciples of Jesus Christ. The voices of the world are trying to silence us, but that's exactly why we must declare our testimony of the Savior louder and stronger. Among all the voices of the world, the Lord is counting on me and you to declare our testimonies, to raise our voice, and to become His voice. If we don't do it, who will testify of Jesus Christ? Who will speak His name and declare His divine mission?
We have a spiritual charge that comes from our knowledge of Jesus Christ."
- Massimo DeFeo
