Jesus Christ, Jehovah

And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the Lord, the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land.

General Conference Daily
"The Spirit of Revelation"
Elder David A. Bednar 4/2011

Oct 2019 General Conference
"Found through the Power of the Book of Mormon"
Elder Ruben V. Alliaud
"My uncle had called my mother to teel her not to worry, that I would get over this soon. Four years later, when I received my call to serve in the Uruguay Montevideo Mission, my mother called my uncle to ask him exactly when I was going to get over all this. The truth is that from the time I was baptized, my mother was a happier mother."

It was cold and windy today. I ventured out this afternoon to deliver the Relief Society birthday cards to Maxine so she could sign them. I am puzzled why it is already the 8th of January and we are just now signing cards for January. There are several birthdays the first week and these cards are going to be quite late by the time we get them to Paula  to mail. I'm going to suggest we sign them at our presidency meeting the month before.

On the way home from Maxine's I went by the post office to pick up the mail. In the mail James got his summons to court from the state of New Mexico. I got a thank you from Maxine for the calendar I gave her for Christmas and we got a star ornament of Charlie from Texas. It is so cute, I'm going to hang it and look at it all year. My car was covered in mud by the time I reached home.

James came out and cleaned off my windshield so the next time we go out we will at least have a clean windshield.

I had four glasses of herbal tea today. Making up for my diet coke addiction I guess but tea doesn't have caffeine or aspartame.

I depostied the check from Mario using my phone at home, vacuumed our bedroom and packed up the 2018-19 financial files both business and personal and took them to James's office. I emptied trashes in our bedroom, the laundry room, hall bath, and "recycle" in the pantry. I started watching the newest Hallmark movie, "Vail in Winter" starring Lacey Chabert and Tyler Hynes.I had walked 10,000 steps by 5:30 this afternoon. I blogged and studied "Come Follow Me." I listened to the following podcasts:
"All In" Morgan interviewed Emily Belle Freeman and Emily told about her new book, "Grace for All Seasons". I also listened to Emily and Dave in the "Don't Miss This" podcast and I listened to a new podcast on Joseph and the First Vision produced by the Joseph Smith Papers. 

It was a busy, productive and happy day.

San Jose, Costa Rica
87th operating temple
Dedicated: 4 June 2000
By: James E. Faust

Jesus Christ, Firstborn
DC 38:1
"Thus saith the Lord your God, even Jesus Christ, the Great I Am, Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the same which looked upon the wide expanse of eternity, and all the seraphic hosts of heaven, before the world was made;
Book of Mormon
Alma 40:1-14
New Testament "The Lord Has Called Us for to Preach the Gospel"
Acts 20


General Conference
Exercising Our Spiritual Muscles
Elder Juan Pablo Villar
"Thanks to the Restoration of the gospel, we can come to understand how our Heavenly Father helps us develop spiritual gifts. It is more likely that He will give us opportunities to develop those gifts rather than just granting them to us without spiritual and physical effort If we are in tune with His Spirit, we will learn to identify those opportunities and then act upon them."

Jared got a new salary offer from his employer in Tyler that will cover his expenses, so they won't be moving any time soon. We feel like our prayers were answered.

James went to town this morning and took my book shipment to mail. He got oil for the Razr. Now the hard part begins, finding where to put the oil. Everything is under something else and nothing is labeled. He has the manual but the photos are not very clear.  He brought me an ice cream from McDonald's back with him. 

I made rolls for the temple tomorrow and pot pies (Marie Callendar's) for dinner this afternoon. James is supposed to quit eating 5 hours before he goes to bed so we now eat around 5 p.m. 

James put new light bulbs in while I worked on repricing books this afternoon.

I trimmed James's hair and ironed his shirt for tomorrow.

Today's Christmas movies:





 So tired

I ordered the DVD for Addy and I to watch.
It's not a Hallmark movie.
We've both seen it and we like it.


So tired...
