What are some prideful actions I might get caught up in and not realize it's prideful?
Alma 18

General Conference
O How Great the Plan of Our God!
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
"Think of how you felt when for the first time you believed and understood that you are truly a child of God; that Jesus Christ willingly suffered for your sins so that you may be clean again;
that priesthood power is real and can bind you to your loved ones for time and for all eternity; that there is a living prophet on the earth today. Isn't that wonderful and amazing!"
General Conference
"Come, Follow Me" by Pracicing Christian Love and Service
By Elder Robert D. Hales
"Brothers and sisters, if we have not fully done so yet, let us turn more toward forgiveness, kindness, and love. Let us renounce the war that so often rages in the heart of the natural man and proclaim Christ's caring love, and peace."
"Brothers and sisters, if we have not fully done so yet, let us turn more toward forgiveness, kindness, and love. Let us renounce the war that so often rages in the heart of the natural man and proclaim Christ's caring love, and peace."
Today Paula J. bore her testimony in our fast and testimony meeting. She said she just celebrated her 62nd birthday by going to the temple for the very first time to do baptisms for the dead. You could have knocked me over with a feather. I had no idea she had never been to the temple. You could tell it was a wonderful experience for her and I am so grateful she shared it with her ward family.
James also bore his testimony for the first time in a long time. He bore testimony of the importance of keeping the Sabbath day holy and of home and visiting teaching. I am grateful for a righteous priesthood holder in my home.

Today my Primary class consisted of: Jace, Lianna, Colter, and Curtis. Our lesson was on the printing of the Book of Mormon.
It was a very cold and extremely windy day today. As I was walking out to the car from the church after our meetings I felt like I was going to blow away!
When we got home we broke our fast with the green chili burros we got at Burger House yesterday. After lunch it was nap time, gospel study time, and then reading to James by the fire and working on my blog. While I worked on my blog James did a little indexing.
Sometimes those words are hard to see.
I like my new fruit stand
I had a hard time going to sleep tonight. I finally got up and ate a little something and took some Tramadol around 11 p.m.
