"How can the Atonement help me during my trials?"
-As part of His atoning sacrifice, the Savior took upon Himself our pains and sicknesses. Because He has experienced our trials, He knows how to help us. When we exercise faith in Jesus Christ, He will give us strength and ease our burdens.
James says I talked in my sleep last night. When I asked what I said this was his response: "You lifted your arm in the air and said excitedly, 'I got it'! When I asked what you had gotten you said: 'The Mickey Mouse label!'" I do remember one of the women yesterday whose scrub top had Mickey Mouse on it. I wonder if that's what triggered my dream. Oh dear, where is my mind.
Philippines Temple.
Can you see the protective bubble around it?
Today was our day to go to the temple but it was closed for cleaning. We like to go the Saturday before fast Sunday. We start our fast around 1pm and then leave for the temple around 2:15 in time to make it to the 3:30 session. We have made plans instead to go to the Gilbert temple this coming Thursday with Kim and hopefully Sheri.
James made what I call a big breakfast this morning, hashbrowns, eggs, green chilies and sausage. I made egg salad sandwiches for lunch so we got our weeks supply of eggs. We started our fast around 12:30. We are fasting for family members.
I made cookies for the Howard family funeral and James delivered them to the Church. We both decided we like white chocolate macadamian nut cookies.

In my efforts to gather histories of my family I found the talk Aunt Gene gave at my Dad's funeral which I will use for his life story. I also found some life histories of my grandpa Maxwell's siblings but not his history so I need to call Rita, my cousin, and see if she can help me. I am doing these life histories for Jenifer's kids but I think I'm going to give them to my kids and grandkids too.

Tonight was the first ever Primary eight and older, Young Women's and women's broadcast. They are calling it the General Women's Broadcast. I taped it and watched it hear at home. I love the stories and pictures of the young girls. The 12 year old Beehive who gave the opening prayer gave one of the best prayers I've ever heard by a girl that age. It was an inspirational meeting.
James and I watched the season finale of "When Calls the Heart." We will anxiously await season two.
