Jacob 2:1-16
Jacob denounces the love of riches, pride, and unchastity - Men may seek riches to help their fellowmen
Why is it important to remember that all our blessings come from our Heavenly Father?
Alma 37
The plates of brass and other scriptures are preserved to bring souls to salvation - The Jaredites were destroyed because of their wickedness - Their secret oaths and covenants must be kept from the people - Counsel with the Lord in all your doings - As the Liahona guided the Nephites, so the word of Christ leads men to eternal life. About 74 B.C.
DC 43:1-12
1-7, Revelations and commandments come only through the one appointed; 8-14, The Saints are sanctified by acting in all holiness before the Lord;
How as members of the Church can we diligently sustain the Prophet and apostles everyday?
General Conference
Learn from Alma and Amulek
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
"Our beloved Savior knows where you are. He knows your heart. He wants to rescue you. He will reach out to you. Just open your heart to Him. It is my hope that those who have strayed from the path of discipleship - even by only a few degrees - will contemplate the goodness and grace of God, see with their hearts, learn from Alma and Amulek, and hear the life-changing words of the Savior:
'Come, follow me.'"
James left early to check on his job. When he came home around 8 or 9 he wanted to go to Ikea to pick up Hailey's desk. Hailey ask me yesterday if I could pick up a desk for her at Ikea. She emailed me the gift cards to pay for it. As I thought about it I realized this was the best time to do it. I hurried and showered and got ready to go. This was the perfect time to shop at Ikea. The doors just opened and no one here. I went directly to a sales clerk on the main floor and ask her where I could obtain the pieces to the desk. She wrote everything down for me and directed me where to go and even went and got me a cart. Everything at Ikea is self-serve. Luckily James was there with me to lift everything onto the cart.
We loaded everything into the back of James's truck and we were on our way.
Ikea, the serve yourself, build yourself store.

On the way back to Cathi and Terry's we stopped at Whataburger and used the rest of our gift card for lunch. A Whataburger is too big for me, I should have ordered a junior.
Back home we picked up Max and Joshua and made a candy run to Walgreen's and drove out to Trina and Darrel's. James is watching Rowan, Lola, Joshua, and Max while Trina, Ruby, Kim and I go to see Beauty and the Beast. We met Kim outside the Regal Theater in Gilbert. She brought out tickets. The seats recline! We saw Laura and Nancy Y. as we were going in. We all loved the movie.
We missed Addy.
I think the Beast was my favorite character.
Addy and her friends got bracelets made on the
beach today.
Back at Trina's Darrel was home and he and James flew the drone in the house and Darrel broke some of the propellers and had to order some more. James took the kids out for pizza and then to the park for fly his drone. They only problem was he couldn't figure out how to fly it. I guess he will have to take some more lessons from Dave.

Back to Chandler we go with Max and Joshua. Joshua is staying at Max's for awhile to play with Evan. Evan was gone to a Cubscout Day Camp all day.
Laura came over to plan some family things with Cathi and I. Lois wants to take everyone to dinner and so we schedule it for April 7th when I will be down for my next infusion. Also we schedule a planning meeting in May to plan for Lois's birthday party in October. It's a 90th surprise party.
I went with James to Queen Creek this evening instead of working on my blog. We stopped at El Pollo for dinner. I got two shrimp tacos. They were quite good. My right arm hurts so badly that I have a hard time sleeping.
