3 Nephi 24
The Lord's messenger will prepare the way for the Second Coming - Christ will sit in judgment - Israel is commanded to pay tithes and offerings - A book of remembrance is kept - Compare Malachi 3.
Alma 28:8-29:7
*How does knowledge of the plan of salvation change the perspective of those whose loved ones have died?
*Read 28:1-3. What price did the Nephites pay to help the people of Ammon keep their covenant?
*Read 28:4-6. How did so much death affect the Nephites?
*Read 28:11-12. Why do some people experience fear when loved ones die? Why do some people feel hope?
*When we have faith in Jesus Christ and the promises of the Lord, we can have hope and joy in times of death.
*At the end of chapter 28 how would you explain the resurrection to help someone have hope in the face of death?
*Read 29:1-3. What would Alma do if he had the wish of his heart? Why did Alma desire this?
*Read 29:4-5. What does the Lord grant unto those who have righteous desires?
DC 98:11-22
11-15, Those who lay down their lives in the Lord's cause will have eternal life; 16-18, Renounce war and proclaim peace, 19-22, The Saints in Kirtland are reproved and commanded to repent;
What promises are available to us if we stay faithful and endure well?
*Eternal life.

His Daily Guiding Hand
M. Joseph Brough
" I thank my Heavenly Father for the blessings and happiness found through the scriptures, prayer, the Holy Ghost, and a worthy earthly father who embraced his role as the principal gospel teacher of his children. They were leading me, guiding me, and even walking beside me to help me find the was, especially when I had to do something difficult."
At 8 am the kitchen was a buzz with activity. Everyone making lunches for our day horseback riding.
Lola had to try on her new birthday trinkets.
Before 9 we had four vehicles caravaning to the Howard's. It is very nice of them to allow us to use their horses and we are so grateful. Here are some of the pictures we took.

One thing about this day, we got some great pictures!
Adam, Ben, Max, and James decided they didn't want to ride horses. They went into town and got some lunch at KFC instead.
I marinated over 40 pieces of chicken for dinner this evening. We also had rice and green beans and garlic bread. It was a great meal.
Elk were seen and then the Razr got a flat tire. This evening the kids watched Nacho Libre after family scriptures. We also played Five Crowns.
