Up at 5 for prayer and scripture study, Exodus 1, the story of baby Moses and the women who saved him. His mother, his sister Miriam, the midwives, and the Pharaoh's daughter.
James and I read Jacob 5. James and Brian think it's boring whereas Kim and I find it a fascinating history found in the Bible and Book of Mormon.
Kim and Brian left for home around 8 a.m. Kim asked if they paid rent on the cabin that it would go towards purchasing. James said yes, of course.
James and I made a trip to town today. Originally I wanted to go for a walk in the park and then get lunch, but when it came time to go I just wasn't feeling up to it. I had a bad dream last night and my sleep was constantly interrupted going to the bathroom. I was exhausted.
We just went to Panda Express and got some lunch to bring home and eat.
Gas prices in Show Low continue to go up, ranging from $4.29 to $4.49.
Kacey sent me a sweet text today. She was concerned about me and wanted to know how my RS lesson went. I told her it went well and that Kim gave me some ideas and helped me with my handouts.
One of the sections of Elder Bednar's talk was on moral agency. Kim made a comment during the lesson about how our moral agency is all we really have to give to the Lord.
James is caulking the logs on the front porch. He says if he doesn't they will rot. I am a little upset because we still have a missing section of the deck railing. When I mention it James says he has to replace one of the logs the railing connects to. By replacing the log he means going up on the hill, chopping down a tree and pealing off the bark. He says he wants to get the logs out front done before summer. Shouldn't we be doing more important things than keeping up a log home. I want to go on a mission.
We received $24,150 from the Elkins' today with a domestic wire fee of $15.
"We learn from Jesus Christ the power of ministering to the one with love and without judgment."

Exodus 3:2
And the angel (presence) of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.
