Does anyone know which temple this is?
Dallas, Texas temple.
Thank you Jared.

Helaman 1:18-34

When situations in your life get hard what do you do to keep your faith alive?

"Be still and know that I am God." (Psalm 46:10)

I calm my thoughts through prayer.  Quiet my thoughts and abide in the presence of God.  Reunite my light with the Savior's light.  Study my scriptures and listen to conference talks.

GC: That I Might Draw All Men Unto Me by Elder Renlund

"The Savior identified the sacrament as indispensable to a spiritual foundation . . . No one is immune from life's challenges;

we all need the safety that comes from partaking of the

sacrament.  The sacrament truly helps us know our Savior."

GC: Standing with the Leaders of the Church by Elder Rasband

"The growing question of today is clear:

are you standing with the leaders of the Church in a

darkening world so that you might spread the Light of Christ?

When we reach out to lift one another, we prove those

powerful words: 

'No one goes his way alone.'

Most of all, we need our Savior, our Lord, Jesus Christ."

James and I both spent much of the day studying and preparing for our lessons tomorrow.  

I love looking over and seeing him next to me in the morning

studying the gospel.

At one point we were going to go into town but decided our time would be better spent staying home and preparing for the Sabbath.

James did unload the logsplitter and took it around by the woodpile.

Going around where he tried to plant some grass

and the trees he planted.

He has an interesting way of doing things.

Today was such a quiet and peaceful day.  We needed this since our

trip to the valley was so busy and fun-filled.  When I say fun-filled I am not referring to my root canal.
