Friday Cold

Posted by 2DI4 at 12:14 PM

I have the beginnings of a cold which I don't like. This is just bad for the temple. I'm going to try to get rid of it today. I have to be very close to women in the temple and that isn't going to work if I'm sick. 132 this morning which is fantastic. I need to fry my chicken and have it over pasta w/spaghetti sauce and lots of broccoli.

I need to use my gift certificate today at Kohls. I need to use it today to get an extra $10 that they gave me when I bought my sunglasses. I need to eat first. Now I'm stuffed. Chicken spaghetti with 2 handfuls of spinach thrown in. I ate some celery and ranch then a few almonds. I'm going to throw up if I try to eat anything else.

Ether 12

 2 And Ether was a prophet of the Lord; wherefore Ether came forth in the days of Coriantumr, and began to prophesy unto the people, for he could not be restrained because of the Spirit of the Lord which was in him.
 3 For he did cry from the morning, even until the going down of the sun, exhorting the people to believe in God unto repentance lest they should be destroyed, saying unto them that by faith all things are fulfilled—
 4 Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.
17 And it was by faith that the three disciples obtained a promise that they should not taste of death; and they obtained not the promise until after their faith.
 18 And neither at any time hath any wrought miracles until after their faith; wherefore they first believed in the Son of God.
 19 And there were many whose faith was so exceedingly strong, even before Christ came, who could not be kept from within the veil, but truly saw with their eyes the things which they had beheld with an eye of faith, and they were glad.

Second, some addictions or predilections, while not inherently evil, can use up our precious allotment of time which could otherwise be used to accomplish virtuous objectives. These can include excessive use of social media, video and digital games, sports, recreation, and many others.16

Let us be at the forefront in protecting time for family.
Of particular concern are philosophies that criticize or diminish respect for women who choose to make the sacrifices necessary to be mothers, teachers, nurturers, or friends to children.
They looked around and then said, “I love to be in Grandma’s house. Where is Grandma?” I didn’t say it to them, but I was thinking, “Isn’t this Grandpa’s house too?” But I realized that when I was a boy, our family went to Grandma’s house. The words of a familiar song came into my mind: “Over the river and through the woods to Grandmother’s house we go.”
But if we allow our culture to reduce the special relationship that children have with mothers and grandmothers and others who nurture them, we will come to regret it.
Latter-day Saints in every country should be good citizens, participate in civic affairs, educate themselves on the issues, and vote.
Our primary emphasis, however, should always be to make any necessary sacrifices to protect our own family and the rising generation.
If we are true to His light, follow His commandments, and rely on His merits, we will avoid spiritual, physical, and intellectual bondage as well as the lamentation of wandering in our own wilderness, for He is mighty to save.

 What to do first. There's a lot to do. I guess it's time to measure my BS again. 210 how the heck did that happen???!!! I feel superfull so maybe it was just too much food.
