Jesus Christ, Condescension of
1 John 5:6
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
Book of Mormon
Alma 17:1-17
*Through the experiences of Mosiah's four sons we learn the priceless secret of how ordinary members of the Church, who will apply themselves, can grow spiritually to the point where they can have the gift of prophecy and revelation. What are three things they did to qualify for this gift? (vs. 2-3)?
Old Testament
2 Kings 17-18
17 Hoshea reigns in Israel and is subject to the Assyrians - The Israelites forsake the Lord, worship idols, serve Baal, and reject all that the Lord has given them - The ten tribes are carried away captive by the kings of Assyria - The land of Israel (Samaria) is repopulated by other people - Many forms of false worship are found among the Samaritans.
18 Hezekiah reigns in righteousness in Judah - He destroys idolatry and breaks the brazen serpent made by Moses because the children of Israel burn incense to it - Sennacherib, king of Assyria, invades Juday - In a blasphemous speech, Rabshakeh asks Jerusalem to surrender to the Assyrians.

President Joseph F. Smith:
"We are laboring for the salvation of souls, and we should feel that this is the greatest duty devolving upon us. Therefore, we should feel willing to sacrifice everything, if need be, for the love of God, the salvation of men, and the triumph of the kingdom of God upon the earth."
Russell M. Nelson 10/16 #68 Joy and Spiritual Survival
"When the focus of our lives is on Jesus Christ and His gospel, we can feel joy regardless of what is happening - or not happening - in our lives."
James went to the Howard's this morning to help unload the furniture they brought up from the valley. They sold their house in Chandler. James said they were giving away a heavy oak couch that is very beautiful. I said I would like it for the porch by our bedroom door so he told Tom and Tom said we could have it.
When James got home we made a trip to town. He had to pick up something and go to the lumber store and I needed to go to Walmart to get some gifts for Ruby. While James was doing his business I walked and got almost 4,000 steps.
While I was at Walmart James went to Home Depot to get some flowers. I got Ruby several little gifts at Walmart but couldn't find a croquet set so we stopped at Big 5 Sports and picked one up.
When we got home I was resting in my regular spot on the recliner when Tamara called and said the Burton's needed help cleaning tomorrow. She said some of the women in our ward were involved in the Trek that our stake youth are on and were not available. Finally Kathy Crane and I decided we could go over this afternoon while the Burton's were there, at 3 in the afternoon. I guess the ward is pretty desperate when two 70 year old women are sent to help clean.
The Burton's have been living in a fifth wheel, a small travel trailer and then there is a storage shed to clean also. Kathy cleaned the storage shed and I cleaned the small travel trailer. We started on the fifth wheel but Kathy had an accident with the vacuum when she tried to empty it, it spilled out all over the floor. We had to clean up the mess and leave because it was six o'clock and I am babysitting for the Grapp's this evening.
While the Grapp kids watched the Spirit dvd this evening I continued making cookies. I ended up making 6 dozen cookies.
Liana says she misses me as her Primary teacher and I told her that I missed her too.
When Thomas and Cammy returned home Cammy asked if I could watch Tildy and Emsley when she went into the hospital to have her baby. I said of course, that they could sleep on the recliners in our bedroom if they stayed overnight.
When the Grapp's went home James wanted me to read to him from "Rider's of the Orphan Train", which I did. Afterwards he wanted to go to bed but I told him I had to finish my cookies and clean the kitchen, which I did. My feet hurt when I was finished and finally was able to go to bed, with plenty of steps by the way.
