"The veil was taken from our minds, and the eyes of our understanding were opened.
We saw the Lord standing upon the breastwork of the pulpit, before us; and under his feet was a paved work of pure gold, in color like amber.
His eyes were as a flame of fire; the hair of his head was white like the pure snow; his countenance shone above the brightness of the sun; and his voice was as the sound of the rushing of great waters, even the voice of Jehovah, saying:
"I am the first and the last; I am he who liveth, I am he who was slain; I am your advocate with the Father."

I am grateful, determined and consistent.
As I was walking this morning and listening to Brother Clayton's talk, "That Your Burdens May Be Light," I asked myself the question: "How can I do missionary work?" The thought occurred to me that I could study the Book of Mormon with Jean Howard. I can hardly wait to ask her!
James spent most of the morning working on sales tax reports. He finally got them all done and mailed off.
I used the rest of the cooked chicken I had in the refrigerator to make chicken enchiladas. I used my recipe for green chili stew for the sauce and added a can of red enchilada sauce to it. I actually made a chicken enchilada casserole instead of making separate rolled enchiladas. They tasted very good. James said they tasted just like the enchiladas he gets at La Casita. I don't think I could have asked for a better compliment.
Anthony brought us by a bale of hay today. He said he didn't want us to pay him but we managed to scrounge up $30 between the two of us. I also dished up some enchiladas in a plastic container for him. He was grateful because he said the only thing he had to eat today was a piece of banana bread made by Sister Howard. He loved the enchiladas!
I paid a couple of credit cards today including my Amazon Store card so I will be ready to start buying books again.
I read several chapters to James from "Aunt Dimity and the Lost Prince." James and I are very curious to find out if there really is a Prince Mikhail.
James took Luna for a ride. I spent about 3 hours studying the gospel and then took a shower. We watched the next episode of "Lark Rise to Candleford" before going to bed.'
When Dorcas is suddenly taken ill, Laura finds herself with more than one problem to solve. Afraid to admit that even she has limitations, Laura decides that she will not fail Dorcas. However, she soon realizes that she must accept her own weaknesses if she is to succeed.
Quotes
Laura:
"To Miss Lane the business of the post office was not work, it was life. And all the threads of all the stories being played out around her seemed to meet and cross in her hands, such clever, capable hands. It was impossible to imagine they could ever falter or fail. (Miss Lane faints after sending a telegram for the Pratt sisters).
Dorcas to Minnie who is tucking her into bed:
Minnie,I have influenza, it is not terminal.
Dorcas: Laura, I am so sorry to burden you like this.
Laura: It's not a burden but a privilege Miss Lane. I won't fail you.
Dorcas: You have all my confidence, and all my trust.
