Journal

While driving home yesterday, we stopped in Kanab, Utah for a little dish of ice cream and I couldn't help notice a boy and probably his mom playing with one of those games where you try to see how high you can stack the word while pulling out previously installed pieces. Anyway they were having a good time and it was fun to watch.

We got home just before nine pm and we both agreed that it's too far to drive in one day. That might change with time but I'm thinking we should stay over in Kanab which is about half way and spend fewer nights in Phoenix. We'll see.

Come Follow Me 

3Nephi 19:9 And they did pray for that which they most desired; and they desired that the Holy Ghost should be given unto them.

3 Nephi 19:15-36

20 “Father, I thank thee that thou hast given the Holy Ghost unto these whom I have chosen; and it is because of their belief in me that I have chosen them out of the world.

 21 “Father, I pray thee that thou wilt give the Holy Ghost unto all them that shall believe in their words.

"When we have the Spirit with us, our spiritual senses are sharpened and our memory is kindled so we cannot forget the miracles and signs we have witnessed. That may be why, knowing Jesus was about to leave them, His Nephite disciples prayed fervently “for that which they most desired; and they desired that the Holy Ghost should be given unto them.” 

Although they had seen the Savior with their own eyes and had touched His wounds with their own hands, they knew that their testimonies might dwindle without being constantly renewed by the power of the Spirit of God. My brothers and sisters, never do anything to risk the loss of this precious and marvelous gift—the companionship of the Holy Ghost. Seek it through fervent prayer and righteous living.
