(Same as last year)
Inklings this week was a discussion on Elder Peter M Johnson's talk, "The Power of Ministering to the One." Here are some notes.
Phrase: Our ability to live the doctrine of Christ will be enhanced by daily studying the Book of Mormon and weekly partaking of the sacrament.
Affirmation: I see each person as a child of God and in ministering to them, especially the one before me, I help them feel of Christ's love and draw nearer to Him. As I serve in ways that invite others to come unto Jesus Christ and worship in His house, I become a more devoted disciple and share His light with the world.
James and I had the opportunity today to minister to someone.
Our friend Janna Grombach came over for a visit. She is troubled about something and wanted our advice. We listened to her problem and tried to comfort her and give her advice. She was here about an hour and I believe she felt better when she left. It is a difficult situation and there does not seem to be a ready solution. I told her to pour her heart out to the Lord and wait for an answer. I told her that sometimes my answers don't come right away while I am praying, but later during the night, early in the morning, or in the temple. She said she had felt inspiration after attending the temple. Willy, her husband is going with the youth on Saturday to do baptisms. She said she would go and while the youth were doing baptisms, she would do some initiatory ordinances and then slip into the celestial room to pray. I told her that was a great idea.
James asked Tamara Applegate for a check today for the workers he paid and some work he had done, which amounted to over $3,000. We need that money to make it through the month. Tamara said Jimmie had some questions for him and wanted to talk to him before Tamara wrote the check. I was afraid of something like this.
James had an appointment with Dr. Smithson in Springerville today.
He wrote him a prescription for time-release Tramadol and a nerve pill that helps with anxiety and depression. Maybe I need to take that one. I think my depression is worry about finances and missing my kids!
Dr. Smithson listens to "Follow Him." His daughter goes to NAU and knows Dr. Carli Andersen, the feature guest on "Follow Him" this week.
Dave Elkin is in Oregon right now but he is definitely interested in buying some land from us. He says he needs to get back home and talk to his wife before he can tell us how much he will buy. This is definitely good news!
I finished the first draft of our trust addendum today. James wrote it out and I typed it for him to look at it. I will type it again, and then we will go get it notarized.
I miss these days!
Adam, Dallin, Joe, Michael, and Jared Ammon
I love that Joe & Michael are angels!
