Edmonton, Alberta
67th operating temple
Dedicated 11 Dec. 1999
By: Gordon B. Hinckley

Jesus Christ, Antemortal, Appearances
John 12:41
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
Helaman 14:1-19
*How can we always be preparing for the Second Coming of Christ?
-Repentance is of the utmost importance in preparing to meet the Savior. After we recognize our sins we must feel sorrow for them and abandon them. We need to confess our sins to the Lord, and also in some cases, to the proper Priesthood authority. We need to ask forgiveness if we have offended someone and to the best of our ability make restitution for the sin. we need to strive daily to keep the commandments and recognize our need for a Savior. We need to know the signs of His coming so that we are prepared both temporally and spiritually. We need to do all we can on a daily basis to strengthen our testimonies of Him and serve others in an effort to become more like Him.

DC 10:5
Pray always, that you may come off conqueror; yea, that you may conquer Satan, and that you may escape the hands of the servants of Satan that do uphold his work.

Value Beyond Measure

A sister from India said: 
"Before I had the gospel in my life I was always trying to prove to others that I was someone special But when I learned that truth, that I am a daughter of God, I didn't have to prove anything to anyone. I knew that I was special ... Don't ever think that you are nothing."  President Monson said it perfectly when he quoted these words: "The worth of a soul is it's capacity to become as God."


James went out looking for elk this morning. He said he saw four cows and a bull.  The bull was actually by himself. While he was gone I made some lasagna soup with Italian sausage. I turned out delicious. This recipe is definitely a keeper. 

I washed the outside of some of the windows today. I have been going to do this for a long time, but just hadn't gotten around to it. 

I went to town today by myself so James could stay home and work on the patio. I bought the rest of the stuff I needed for Alice's candy bouquet. Today is her 16th birthday. 

The finished product.
Her mom told me that she liked Reese's and Almond Joys.
Later Alice told me she is allergic to coconut so she gave the Almond Joy's to her mom. Maybe that we Sandra's plan all along.

Happy Sweet Sixteen Alice!

We called to see if anyone was going to be home. Sandra said she was there but when we went to deliver no one answered the door so we left it in the car.

Today was my first day of doing the 10,000 steps program with my app, Pacer. I did really well with no pains in my knees.


Tonight was Guilty Pleasures night on "DWTS." Lindsey Stirling said her guilty pleasure, is she had one, would be staying in her pajamas all day.
Their dance was the best!!

We also watched an episode of Heartland, "True Enough."
