Atonement
Moroni 10:33
And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenants of the Father unto the remission of your sins that ye become holy, without spot.
Jesus Christ, Antemortal Existence of
Moses 4:2
But, behold, my Beloved Son, which was my Beloved and Chosen from the beginning, said unto me - Father, thy will be done, and the glory be thine forever.
Alma 56:1-17
How does Helaman show courage and faith in these verses?
*Helaman shows great courage and faith when he encourages the people of Ammon who had buried their weapons of war and covenanted not to fight, to be loyal to their covenants There is great power and strength in covenant keeping, and Helaman knew this.
DC 124:1-15
What did I learn from these verses?
*When we follow the prophet we receive great blessings. The power of the Holy Ghost. Hyrum Smith is loved because of the integrity of his heart. Repent and be baptized for the remission of sins. You shall receive the Holy Spirit and know the truth and be numbered with the House of Israel.
General Conference
Whatsoever He Saith Unto you, Do It
Elder L. Whitney Clayton
"The trial of our faith will always involve staying true to simple, daily practices of faith. Then, and only then, does He promise that we will receive the divine response for which we long. Only once we have proven our willingness to do what He asks without demanding to know the whens, the whys, and the hows do we 'reap the rewards of our faith, and our diligence and patience, and longsuffering. Real obedience accepts God's commandments unconditionally and in advance."


James caught squirrel number six in his live trap. He will go down to live by the lake with his friends. Chuck gets rid of his in a different way where they are not able to ever come back.

I read an article in the Ensign, "Eight Strategies to Help Children Reject Pornography." I texted all the kids and asked them to read it.

I found evidence that there has been a mouse in our pantry. James set four traps, but I think he is probably gone. We are just wondering how he got in there in the first place as James sealed up all the holes.

We read outside on the porch today. It was absolutely gorgeous! 
For lunch I had one of Rosa's tamales with some ketchup. Yummy!

I went outside and cleaned about 18 greenhouse panels for James today. Some of them have dirt caught in between the two panels.
James found out the greenhouse is only built to withstand 15 mph winds. That is nothing!

I love our book, "Lily of the Manor." It is my favorite!  It was written by Anita Stansfield.

I made french vanilla cupcakes with lemon frosting today. These should last for awhile because James doesn't like french vanilla. 

I think I have a pinched nerve.
