Jesus Christ, Divine Sonship

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Book of Mormon

2 Nephi 24:1-32

*Babylon will be destroyed. What kinds of rest do you think Israel will experience in the Millennium?

-A respite from the temptations of the devil.

New Testament "Come Follow Me"

Matthew 6:25-34; I come to know Jesus Christ by doing His will.

"Developing Good Judgment and Not Judging Others" George A. Schwitzer, April 2010

General Conference

Deep and Lasting Conversion to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ

Elder Quentin L. Cook

"What do these adjustments mean for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? We are confident that members will be blessed in extraordinary ways. Sunday can be a day of gospel learning and teaching at church and in the home. As individuals and families engage in family councils, family history, ministering, service, personal worship, and joyful family time, the Sabbath day will truly be a delight."

Patricia Heaton from "The Middle" and "Everybody Loves Raymond" spoke at the Rootstech conference in Salt Lake City today. She is all about family. She grew up in Cleveland, Ohio to a very Catholic family. Her grandmother had 15 children and was Catholic mother of the year one year and received a medal from the Pope. That medal is now a cherished family heirloom.

Thursday night there was a training session as part of Rootstech for family history leaders and consultants. James and I listened to it. There was a lot of talk about the family search phone app, family tree. It is amazing all of the knowledge and information we have at our finger tips in our phones. James calls them our Urim and Thummim's.

James and I also listened to the CEO of Ancestry tell of all the advances that Ancestry has made. I also listened to Elder and Sister Bednar speak. Elder Bednar told a neat story about some of his ancestors.

I went to the dump this afternoon with James. It was very windy. I was hoping we could skip the wind this year. We listened to our book, "Healing Hearts" on the way over to the dump and back.

We started our fast this afternoon. We are fasting that Stacy will get the job that she interviewed for yesterday, if it be the will of the Lord. James said in the prayer, "that she will have the righteous desires of her heart."

This evening after finishing my walking I watched "Victoria" with James. There is only one more episode for this season.
