Jesus Christ, Divine Sonship
2 Nephi 19:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Book of Mormon
1 Nephi 11:31-12:10
*Which part of Nephi's vision would I like to see for myself?
* What are the mists of darkness that I encounter in my life? How can I overcome them?
New Testament "Come Follow Me"
Matthew 2; Luke2; We Have Come to Worship Him
General Conference
Divine Discontent
Michelle D. Craig
" The world often uses a feeling of discontent as an excuse for self-absorption, for turning our thoughts inward and backward and dwelling individually on who I am, who I am not, and what I want. Divine discontent motivates us to follow the example of the Savior, 'who went about doing good.' As we walk the path of discipleship, we will receive spiritual nudges to reach out to others."
The Joy of Unselfish Service
Cristina B. Franco
"Sisters, are we giving our all to the Lord without reservation? Are we sacrificing of our time and talents so the rising generation can learn to love the Lord and keep His commandments? Are we ministering both to those around us and to those we are assigned with care and with diligence - sacrificing time and energy that could be used in other ways? Are we living the two great commandments - to love God and to love His children? Often that love is manifest as service."
Ensign: "John the Disciple Whom Jesus Loved" by Eric D. Huntsman.
$114.18 went in to my bank account from my credit card rewards program. I like that kind of service.
James went to the Vernon School this morning to look at a remodeling job that Sister Gardner told him about. She is the school administrator. It involves electrical and plumbing and he is required to have a licensed electrician and plumber so he may not do the job. Hunsaker Brothers are also bidding on it.
We made a trip to town today to mail a box of books. While there we bought a few groceries at Walmart and then made a stop at Taco Bell for my two tacos.
At the Vernon post office we picked up two copies of a book James ordered, "Noddy Bedtime Stories." When he ordered it Sheri was here and she thought he said, "Naughty Bedtime Stories."

It is sunny today and our roads are full of water and mud, so much for our clean car.
As a family we are going to the temple next Tuesday with Jared and Kacey for their anniversary. Trina is going to watch Charlie and will even take her for a car ride when she takes Lola to school.
While I am working on my blog James is on Amazon buying textbooks. I think this is something he enjoys doing even though he says he hates working on the computer.
The last hour of my day was spent walking in order to get my steps and burn over 300 calories. It really is not a good idea to exercise before going to bed.
Our friends built a snowman
I love quilts with geometric shapes
Ben has been very sick the past couple weeks with a cold
and the flue. Sheri told him he better start
wearing his coat. He sent her this picture to prove that
he was.
I love the tongue sticking out and the
intense look on her face.
