041324, Saturday, Journal Entry

Vitals: Weight 228.3, I keep track of my weight daily because it gives me the ability to make adjustments in how I'm eating without getting too far off track. For example, I like to shoot for weighing 225. At 228.3 I can try to recall what I ate or what else I might have done that c intrigued to me being up by 3 pounds and make the needed adjustments. I'm planning on weighing less tomorrow and I'll do that by paying closer attention to what I eat and maybe getting a little more exercise. We'll see.

Journal Entry 

Cathy is still recovering from her injuries and still has some pain. I took her to an appointment with her doctor who took xrays and found that she is recovering well and her pain is to be expected. She went with me to the Bishops Storehouse last Tuesday but she may not want to go today. Saturdays are usually very busy and somewhat chaotic. We'll see.

I made an appointment to do Initiatories at the temple next Tuesday morning. My thinking is that I can do Initiatories at 7a.m., get my haircut at 8 and still go to breakfast with Cathy and Jake at 9:15. 

Come Follow Me 

Jacob 7:5 And he had hope to shake me from the faith, notwithstanding the many revelations and the many things which I had seen concerning these things; for I truly had seen angels, and they had ministered unto me. And also, I had heard the voice of the Lord speaking unto me in very word, from time to time; wherefore, I could not be shaken.

"As we venture forth on our individual voyages, may we sail safely the seas of life. May we have the courage of a Daniel, that we might remain true and faithful despite the sin and temptation which surround us. May our testimonies be as deep and as strong as that of Jacob, the brother of Nephi, who, when confronted by one who sought in every way possible to destroy his faith, declared, “I could not be shaken."

President Thomas S Monson
