teachings of President Hinckley this year in
Relief Society and Priesthood!
1 Nephi 3:9-31
Why do you think Sam willingly followed Nephi while Laman and Lemuel persecuted him?
DC 1:31-2:3
What great promises in these verses spoke to me today?
*Verses 31 and 32 - Repent and be forgiven.
GC: Fourth Floor, Last Door by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
"The problem was not a lack of prayers or a shortage of faith. She needed only to understand that, as painful as it might be for our Father in Heaven, He will not force anyone to choose the path of righteousness. God did not force His own children to follow Him in the premortal world. How much less will He force us now as we journey through this mortal life? God will invite, persuade. God will reach out tirelessly with love, inspiration and encouragement. But God will never compel - that would undermine His great plan for our eternal growth."
Today is the day I actually sent out the family email regarding the reading of the Book of Mormon. Each day I will send the reading assignment and a question to Stacy, Paul, Kim, Brian, Sheri, Ian, Jared, Kacey, Darrel, Trina, and Ben. I got positive responses from both Sheri and Kacey. I am excited that our entire family will be reading the Book of Mormon together if everyone will accept the challenge.
Today we had 27 elk in our yard.
Here are just a few.
James is in the valley working for Jerrod Bowen. Today he took Max and Evan to Lois's to do yardwork. Ben would have gone too but he is quite sick. The boys don't go back to school until next week.
Because I am sick I tried to cancel my infusion but no one called me back. Meanwhile, while Adam is driving for Uber he has an accident on the freeway. No one was hurt but the Scion was towed by a company located in Apache Junction. The sad thing is that Adam does not have collision insurance.

James came home this afternoon bearing gifts: burros from Burger House, homemade soap from Rebecca, and a Family Proclamation plaque that Darrel and Trina made.
Of course Lola is always right there to assist Trina.
This evening was another evening of movie watching. I am trying to finish up all the Christmas movies.
