Name that temple
3 Nephi 24:1-25:6
What blessings are promised to those who pay their tithing?
* Those who live the law of tithing show their faith in God. Obedience to this law brings the blessings stated in 3 Nephi 24:10-12. Elder Jeffrey R. Holland shared five reasons why every member of the Church, in any kind of circumstance, should obey the law of tithing: "I suggest five reasons why all of us, rich or poor, longtime member or newest convert, should faithfully pay our tithes and offerings. First, do so for the sake of your children. Teach your children that many of the blessings of the Church are available to them because you and they give tithes and offerings to the Church.
Second, pay your tithing to rightfully claim the blessings promised those who do so. Third, pay your tithing as a declaration that possession of material goods and the accumulation of worldly wealth are not the uppermost goals of your existence. Fourth, pay your tithes and offerings out of honesty and integrity because they are God's rightful due. This leads to a fifth reason to pay our tithing and offerings. We should pay them as a personal expression of love to a generous and merciful Father in Heaven. Through His grace, God has dealt bread to the hungry and clothing to the poor. At various times in our lives, that will include all of us, either
temporally or spiritually." (Ensign, Nov. 2001, 33-35).

" The God of heaven," Daniel said "shall set up a kingdom, a stone cut out without hands, that will become a great
mountain and fill the whole earth, never to be
destroyed but to stand for ever."
The guy who shot officer Reed yesterday is now dead. He took his 15 year old hostage and hid in a cabin at the Lake of the Woods for 6 1/2 hours before he was shot and killed by the police. His hostage was unharmed.
There was a processional for officer Reed today as his body was
brought back from the medical examiners in Tucson.

I quote James: "The cows made huge holes in our grass. They are the blackberry leaves, the leaves off the grape vines, and the apple tree leaves and trampled the raspberry vines into the ground."
The cow posse strikes again.
James and I had lunch at the China Buffet today. We also bought a quart of hot and sour soup to bring home. It is the bomb!
Stacy raking and Jared, well, I am not
sure what he is doing.
Not sure where the cake is.
I watched a few Christmas movies today. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" starring Brooke Burns and Henry Winkler. This is one of my favorite light-hearted Christmas movies.
"The Nine Lives of Christmas" about cats, and a lonely fireman who finds his true love.
This evening James and I watched "A Christmas Detour" starring Candace Cameron Bure.
This would make a cute guesthouse.
There has been lots of backlash because Trump won the election. People are rioting and protesting in the big cities. This is one of the reasons I don't watch the news!
Cinderella's advice, and mine too!
An interesting article I found on Facebook.
