The Man Who Communed with Jehovah'
Elder Kyle S. McKay
"Joseph Smith is now part of that heavenly priesthood of which he spoke. As he promised his friend, he is not far away from us, and on the other side of the veil, he is still working with us, and with a power greatly increased, to roll on this kingdom. What joy and thanksgiving, I raise my voice in 'praise to the man who communed with Jehovah.' And above all, praise to Jehovah, who communed with that man!"
James went to church alone this morning with Owen's invitations in his pocket. I had tried to get someone to help him hand them out but the Hunsaker's were out of town at a wedding and Kathy was down with a bad leg. I think he will be fine as there are only about 20 invitations.
Today a high councilman spoke in our sacrament meeting. The program was wrong and James can't remember his name. He said he gave one of the best talks on forgiveness that he has ever heard.
Sister Whatcott, the new counselor in the stake Relief Society presidency, was the other speaker.
One of the older Jensen girls played the piano and James said she was really good. One of the younger Jensen girls sang "I Need Thee Every Hour" and James absolutely loved it. He said she has a beautiful voice. I asked him if she was as good as Sister Golly and he said yes. I wish I would have been there because this is one of my favorite hymns.
Jeff Crane taught Sunday School and again I wish I would have been there. It's hard to get ready for church though when you can't lift your hand up above your head to do your hair and put your makeup on.
Kathy said Chuck brought home an invitation and they were really cute. She asked if we gave one to Virgil Cooper and his sister Nadine Singleton. I said no, but I have some extras and I can give them one.
There is a Worldwide Relief Society Devotional this evening and a testimony meeting at our stake center. Kristine Hipps and I were going to go together. She texted me and said she wasn't feeling well and was going to have to beg off. I told her I wasn't able to go either so it was fine.
I watched the broadcast at home where Elder Renlund was the main speaker. It reminded me of the talk he gave last year in Show Low.
By not going to the stake center I missed out on the testimony meeting and popcorn bar.
James made dinner for us. I had him make protein pancakes using the Kodiak mix I bought. If you use milk and an egg there are 21 grams of protein in each serving. He also made a most delicious salad using red cabbage, lettuce, celery, green onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, and avocado. We used the basalmic vinager Sheri bought in Italy and it was one of the most delicious salads I have ever eaten.
James also cleaned the kitchen and did the dishes. Thank you Honey.
It was a beautiful day today. Sunny with the high 60 degrees.
tolerate each other.
