Atonement
Mosiah 13:28
And moreover, I say unto you, that salvation doth not come by the law alone; and were it not for the atonement, which God himself shall make for the sins and iniquities of his people, that they must unavoidably perish, notwithstanding the law of Moses.
Jesus Christ, Antemortal existence of
John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Alma 47:20-36
Why did prior knowledge of the Lord cause the dissenters to forget the Lord their God?
*Instagram answer: Those who fell away from the gospel most likely also lost the influence of the Spirit. They sought after others who were in the same situation and as often happens they pulled each other down. When you intentionally reject the gospel you set yourself up to drift here and there.
DC 109:61-80
How can we always be filled with joy and praise God ad the Lamb?
*Keeping the companionship of the Holy Ghost, which requires humility, repentance, forgiveness, and keeping the commandments. Through the Holy Ghost we can be filled with joy and praise for God and the Lamb.

Drawing the Power of Jesus Christ into Our Lives

"Covenant-keeping men and women seek for ways to keep themselves unspotted from the world so there will be nothing blocking their access to the Savior's power."
The Trezise's are getting a dog!
His name is Oliver James.
The boys are so excited and so is Sheri!
James worked outside all morning long. We left for the valley around 12:30 after having another family prayer.
Our first stop was in Show Low to get gas and the car washed. Our first mishap occurred when the code wouldn't work in the carwash. James called the help number and the guy said to look for the attendant on duty. We looked. There wasn't one. We called again and the guy gave us his personal code, which worked. As we were sitting there all of a sudden we were both wet. The sky roof was not completely shut and was leaking all over us! Finally we got it closed.
Our next stop was the Show Low post office to mail Molly's Moana doll. Jared sent us a text saying Molly had decided to be baptized and the date is September 9th. James and I really want to go.
Before leaving town we stopped at Arby's to get something to eat. James got a turkey reuben and I got a salad. Finally we are on the road! We have nothing to read but hopefully our new book will be waiting for us at Cathi's.
We had to make a 10-15 minute stop in Salt River Canyon for roadwork. We stopped at Burger House for two mixed greens and two green burros for Cathi and Terry. Of course we also had to get a couple for ourselves which we ate along the way. They were, of course, delicious!
When we arrive at Cathi and Terry's my four new purple Pioneer Woman goblets are waiting for me along with our new book by Sarah Eden, "Romancing Daphne." I only get to visit with Cathi a few minutes before it's time to go see Lois and Dawn. We stop and pick up food for Elmer's as both Dawn and Lois love their machaca tacos and burros.
The four of us eat diner together and we have a nice visit. Lois gives me back a Snow White doll I gave her along with an Anne of Green Gables and a grandma with a little girl. Dawn brings out a tray of miniature Madame Alexander dolls.
They said I could have whichever ones I wanted.
I picked out three from the Wizard of Oz to go
with the set I got from McDonald's a few years ago.
The Lollipop Guild boy, Elphaba, and the Wizard
were the ones I chose.
When we get back to Cathi and Terry's she is watching a new show she loves called "Heartland." It is a series and I have been curious about it for a while. She loves it but she gets it on Netflix which we don't have so I order the first season on DVD.
Before going to bed I read a chapter from our new book, "Romancing Daphne."

This is true of Tramadol!
When Sheri announced they were getting a dog,
Brian said he wanted one. Kim posted this photo
and said: "You have one."
One thing I like about coming through Globe is
seeing Superstition Mountain when we hit
Apache Junction.

I love it!
Autumn had a sonogram today.
Kacey met her in Dallas and they went to the temple.
The castles continue.
