Today we were ask to share a scripture on social media.  I shared the Primary scripture for the month.


I forgot about the scripture that helped me through the hardest time
in my life.  Thank goodness Dianne Heyman posted it:


 Ether 4:1-19
Moroni wrote that the brother of Jared (Moriancumr) recorded in his vision all the inhabitants of the earth from beginning to end (Ether 3:25; 2:13).  This vision reveals "all things from the foundation of the world unto the end thereof" (2 Nephi 27:10).  Moroni explained that "there never were greater things made manifest" than what the brother of Jared saw (Ether 4:4).  We know Moroni sealed a copy of this vision with the plates he delivered to Joseph Smith. (Ether 4:5; 5:1).  Moroni further informed us of the conditions the Lord indicated must exist for this sealed portion of the record to come forth.  The scriptures indicate we must repent; exercise faith in the Lord, like the brother of Jared did; and become sanctified. (Ether 4:6-7).

GC:  A Choice Seer Will I Raise Up by Elder Craig C. Christensen
" We need not be timid about testifying of Joseph's mission as a prophet, seer, and revelator, for the Lord has always worked through prophets.  Because of the truths restored through Joseph Smith, we know much more about our Heavenly Father and the Savior Jesus Christ.  We know of Their divine attributes, Their relationship to each other and to us, and the great plan of redemption that allows us to return to Their presence."

James is spending alot of time upstairs going over information needed by the insurance company for the items that were stolen from the construction yard where he has been keeping his equipment.  Because the power trowel wasn't listed on his equipment inventory my hopes for getting reimbursed for it are pretty low.  One thing I will say about James is he never gives up!

I love this memory from a couple of years ago.  These girls
got up at 5 am. to come to the temple.  I am so proud of them
and I am so grateful to have been one of their leaders!

I read an interesting article in the Ensign today by Elder M. Russell Ballard called "Learn by Study and by Faith."  The talk was about teaching young people and explaining things to them that they want to know.  He suggests that we go on lds.org and study something new called Gospel Topic Essays.  I am excited to do this!

Family Memories:
This is such a great picture of Molly and
look how blue Lola's eyes are.

Maybe getting Lola a stuffed monkey for Christmas wasn't a 
good idea.  It looks like she already has one.

Ending with a joke:
