022724, Tuesday, Journal Entry
Cathy had developed bleeding in her right eye. We don't know why but it got worse throughout the day yesterday. I'm somewhat anxious to see how she looks when she gets up. Ordinarily things like this just heal themselves with time but sometimes things could get worse. She is such a great woman and loves to do good whenever and wherever she can. I hate to see her suffer the things that seem to happen to her. This eye issue and last week her hand getting injured and on and on. Don't want to dwell on them. Yesterday, other than her eye, she was really happy and in good spirits.
Today we will be at the Bishops Storehouse assuming she's alright.
Come Follow Me
2 Nephi 11: 5 And also my soul delighteth in the covenants of the Lord which he hath made to our fathers; yea, my soul delighteth in his grace, and in his justice, and power, and mercy in the great and eternal plan of deliverance from death.
6 And my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should come all men must perish.
"In the Book of Mormon, Nephi speaks often of delight. He delights “in the things of the Lord,” “in the scriptures,” and “in the great and eternal plan” of our Father in Heaven (see 2 Nephi 4:15–16; 11:2–8). Notably, Nephi often remembers his sources of delight in the midst of affliction, serving to lift and focus his spirit on eternal blessings.
We too should delight in the things of the Lord for it will “lift” our hearts and give us cause to “rejoice” (2 Nephi 11:8)."
