Inklings
'Look to God and Live'
D. Todd Christofferson
I love seeing Sammy in his little house. I thought I took a picture but I can't seem to find it.
I listened to Inklings this morning. The talk was "Look Unto God and Live" by D. Todd Christofferson. Here are a few notes:
"Prosper means enjoying the guidance and blessings of heaven in their lives."
I am firmly rooted in God's light. When I 'look to God,' I receive His Spirit, find peace in my challenges, and grow in faith even in time of doubt.
What does it mean to have a wise/willing heart?
What does prosper mean? The opposite is being cutoff from the presence of the Lord.
The Holy Ghost enhances and refines ones native abilities.
Cast your eyes and begin to believe.
Prosperity is knowing that God will show up.
Practice prosperity daily.
I watched an old Christmas movie, "A Holiday for Love" starring a quite a bit younger Melissa Gilbert. I rather enjoyed it.
James packed the two Texas Christmas boxes and we took them into UPS to mail them. It cost much less than I expected, which was great.
We went to Walmart and picked up my Tramadol and a few groceries, including a leave-in hair conditioner that cost $28.97 or $5.17 an ounce. I wasn't going to get it because it was so pricey but James encouraged me, saying if I wanted it, I should get it, so I did.
We went through McDonald's and ordered a Quarter Pounder with cheese to share. We asked if they would cut it in half. The girl who delivered it to our car gave us a plastic knife and said the knife was to cut the burger in half because they couldn't do it. Interesting and weird. This little burger cost $8.89. I gave James the biggest half. It was good, but needed salt.
I sent Kim a text showing her our snow. She Brian and Joe are at Disneyland and I asked how it was going. She said it was busy, but fun. She asked me to save her some snow. I told her it was melting fast!
We had the most gorgeous full moon tonight, made brighter by the reflection off the snow.
I finished blogging for Thanksgiving Day and wrapped Trina's gift while watching "The Snow Must Go On." I enjoyed it. Hallmark has some good Christmas movies this year.
Kerri Halcomb called me this evening. She has made arrangements for her mom to go into a care facility in north Mesa. She will take her down next Wednesday. The place is called Brookstone North. I know this is probably the best thing for both Kerri and Catherine, but I can't help but be a little sad. I will miss Catherine. I will definitely visit when I am in the valley.

Thus was it made known that our Redeemer spent his time during his sojourn in the world of spirits, instructing and preparing the faithful spirits of the prophets who had testified of him in the flesh;
