Journal Entry

My GMI (Glucose Management Index) is down to 6.6 which is the lowest it's ever been since I've had the ability to monitor it. Usually the GMI is indicative of one's A1C and that's an indicator of how well I'm doing in managing my diabetes. Generally those with diabetes try to keep their A1C at or below 7.0. I've found that my A1C levels generally follow my GMI but lags some. So I'm guessing my A1C would be around 6.8 edging is very good. Exercise and eating intelligently are the keys and I normally avoid sugary foods like most desserts and why I try to get already 7500 walking steps in at least five days a week.

Yesterday we drove up to Fashion Place Mall and walked. Cathy likes to walk also for her health. She seems to be improving in her general health. She is planning on joining me at the Bishops Storehouse today. Should be busy.

Come Follow Me 

Moroni 2:2 And he called them by name, saying: Ye shall call on the Father in my name, in mighty prayer; and after ye have done this ye shall have power that to him upon whom ye shall lay your hands, ye shall give the Holy Ghost; and in my name shall ye give it, for thus do mine apostles.

"Priesthood ordinances and sacred covenants are essential in this ongoing process of spiritual rebirth; they also are the means God has appointed whereby we receive His exceeding great and precious promises. Ordinances that are received worthily and remembered continually open the heavenly channels through which the power of godliness can flow into our lives. Covenants that are honored steadfastly and remembered always provide purpose and the assurance of blessings in both mortality and for eternity.

For example, God promises us, according to our faithfulness, the constant companionship of the third member of the Godhead, even the Holy Ghost…"

Elder David A. Bednar Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, October 2017

D&C 11:12 And now, verily, verily, I say unto thee, put your trust in that Spirit which leadeth to do good—yea, to do justly, to walk humbly, to judge righteously; and this is my Spirit.

"I have spoken here of heavenly help, of angels dispatched to bless us in time of need. But when we speak of those who are instruments in the hand of God, we are reminded that not all angels are from the other side of the veil. Some of them we walk with and talk with—here, now, every day. Some of them reside in our own neighborhoods. Some of them gave birth to us, and in my case, one of them consented to marry me. Indeed heaven never seems closer than when we see the love of God manifested in the kindness and devotion of people so good and so pure that angelic is the only word that comes to mind."

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, October 2008
