James had an appointment this morning at 7:15 at the Virtuous Pain Center. They are doing injections in his hands today. I hope they work!
The talk for Inklings today was Elder Bednar's "All Who Have Endured Valiantly (D&C 121:29)"
Emily used Proverbs 31:10-31 to discuss the talk. Who can find a virtuous woman, for her price is far above rubies. Emily says this woman of virtue is also a woman of valor.
Invitation: For the disciples of the Savior, charity encompasses both what we do and what we can become.
Promise: All throne and dominions, principalities and powers, shall be revealed and set forth upon all who have endured valiantly for the gospel of Jesus Christ. (D&C 121:29)
Favorite Quote: "The Redeemer of the world turned outward in love and service when He faced spiritual adversity or physical pain."
Affirmation: I am becoming a new creature in Christ. Through His grace, I am being changed - little by little - into someone filled with greater love, faith, and charity. I do not simply endure life; I joyfully walk with Jesus Christ as He shapes my heart to become more like Him.
I finished the book, "Within the Dark Hills." I started a new book that I've never read before: "Miss Adeline's Match" by Joanna Barker. "As is done in London, we marched into dinner according to the rank."
From Emma M. Lion volume 1 page 100 - April 27th: "Don't bother our new tenant. He's a busy man and has no need for women flocking about his personal business. (Archibald to Emma).
Emma: "What a disappointment," I answered. "I was going to hen peck him until he cried."
"The purpose of the gospel is to transform us."
Michael and April arrived around 1 o'clock this afternoon, about an hour after I finished cleaning and I had my hair in rollers and was resting in the bedroom. It took me a few minutes to make myself presentable.
April is quite pretty and I can see why Michael is smitten with her. Michael is so very thoughtful. He brought me purple cut tulips.
Michael, April and Namira went on a long walk this afternoon. It was quite windy. Here are some things I learned about April:
* She moved here from Wisconsin a couple of years ago. She lives in Tucson. She likes Tucson because it is a little cooler than Phoenix.
* April likes to knit but she doesn't like to crochet. She was knitting something and I ask her what it was. She said oh, this is going over a ramp for my lizard. She has a bearded dragon who name is Mango.
* She also has a coon hound named Bear who goes walking with her. Sometimes she walks other people's dogs.
* She taught school a year in Wisconsin and a year in Tucson. She is now Nannie to two children, Lottie who is 3 (everyone calls her snail), and Charlie who is almost 1.
Some things Michael and I talked about this evening. I asked him about Chatgpt. He said he has to use AI for work only they use Clyde. He, Alex, Jazmin, Max, Joe, Dallin and Sammi are planning a trip to Peru in October and Michael says that Ai will do most of the planning as long as they feed "Clyde" the right information.
This evening Michael and April had a frozen pizza so I decided James and I would have one too. I put in the over the Bettergoods thin crust veggie pizza I bought at Walmart. I had one piece and so did James. It was not good. Soggy zucchini is not good on a pizza!
"When we continue to have faith in Jesus Christ - even when things might feel impossible to us at the moment - we become spiritually stronger."

Deuteronomy 18:22
When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
