"Come Follow Me"
President Russell M. Nelson
"In truth, the Savior Himself has made it abundantly clear that while His Resurrection assures that every person who ever lived will indeed be resurrected and live forever, much more is required if we want to have the high privilege of exaltation. Salvation is an individual matter, but exaltation is a family matter."
Tamara, our Relief Society president, sent out a text this morning to all of the presidency regarding some sisters in our ward. One sister has a husband in prison. She has two young boys. She thought he would be getting out of prison after six months but now she finds out he will be in 3 years. She is struggling and now this.
Another sister is having a double masectomy next Monday.
The last sister has cancer and just found out her young daughters, 4 and 2, both have a rare disease affecting their hearing and eyesight.
Whenever I feel sorry for myself and my problems, all I have to do is look around and find someone else who has it much worse.
Faith and prayers and loving service are all I have to offer.
I made cookies this morning with three kinds of chocolate chips, walnuts and oatmeal. They were delicious!
James and I took a trip to town today. We went around lunch time and stopped at one of our favorite places to eat, LaCasita. We both ordered our usual, a chicken enchilada with red sauce for me and rice and beans, a chicken enchilada with green sauce and a side of beans for James. We had a new waitress and she got James's order wrong. His enchilada was a cheese instead of a chicken. Next she gave us the wrong bill, and then she added up our bill wrong. Wow! She really is new. James was very nice about it and did not complain when the owner asked him how his meal was.
I bought groceries at Walmart and James went to Home Depot for lightbulbs.
Scattered showers in the area but it only rained at our place for a few minutes. The monsoons are holding back this year.
Christmas movies and walking this evening.

I love these two cuties!
