Matthew 5:14-16
"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Let you light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
I love this quote by President Eyring in this month's First Presidency message I the Ensign:
"As we read, ponder, and pray over the word of God, we will come to love it. The Lord puts it in our hearts. As we feel that love, we will begin to love the Lord more and more. With that will come the love for others that we need in order to strengthen those whom God puts in our path."
James worked on the ceiling in Joshua's room while I did laundry and worked on my blog.
James got cleaned up enough so we could run through Whataburger at lunch time. He got a gift card for Christmas and one for his birthday to his favorite burger joint.
After lunch I had a nap and then went shopping at Kohl's and Walmart. This is what I got at Kohl's:
I love this purse!
Since my ears are no longer pierced
a necklace is about the only jewelry I wear.
Have I ever mentioned how talented James's family is. His sister Connie made me these socks and sent them to me as a late Christmas gift. They are made from Peruvian wool
I got a call from a friend from high school this evening, Paul Reynolds. He was calling for Digger O'Dell, another high school friend to tell me that Digger's wife Jean, one of my best friends from high school had just passed away. She found out a couple of weeks ago that she had cancer all throughout her body and now she is gone. Her funeral will be on Friday in Pima and both James and I want to go. Jean was James's vice president when he was student body president at Snowflake. Thinking of Jean brought back a whole flood of memories. She was quite the character. She used to do pantomime's to Ray Stevens songs: "Please Mr. Custer", "Harry the Harry Ape", and "Ahab the Arab." It seems impossible that she is actually gone.
For FHE James and I watched Bible videos online. Stacy, Paul, and Joshua went to Olive Garden with Tara and Gilbert's sister Carmen.
