Journal Entry:

We walked at University Place yesterday then helped make by driving Alexander from his therapy to his school. Alexander suffers from autism. Actually his whole family is affected and Jake is looking into possible medical solutions. There seems to be some possibilities and that makes sense to me. Autism is a definite mental disability that has exploded in recent times. A lot of research is being done that could lead to possible cures or at least methods of improving the lives of those who are suffering from this disease. I applaud Jake's efforts and hope he is successful. Alexander is a very good looking young man and seems like he has every possibility of being a successful adult if his autism could be controlled. We are hoping and praying for success. We'll see.

They all came over yesterday and Cathy, true to form, feed them. Jake was here to pick up Alexander's car seat and Erica was at the Stuart's for her organ lesson. So we got a nice visit with them.

Come Follow Me 

Alma 26:22 Yea, he that repenteth and exerciseth faith, and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing—unto such it is given to know the mysteries of God; yea, unto such it shall be given to reveal things which never have been revealed; yea, and it shall be given unto such to bring thousands of souls to repentance, even as it has been given unto us to bring these our brethren to repentance.

D&C 14:8 And it shall come to pass, that if you shall ask the Father in my name, in faith believing, you shall receive the Holy Ghost, which giveth utterance, that you may stand as a witness of the things of which you shall both hear and see, and also that you may declare repentance unto this generation.

"You are free to develop and exercise faith in God and in His divine Son, faith in His word, faith in His Church, faith in His servants, and faith in His commandments.

Cultivation of that faith will entitle you to the companionship of the Holy Ghost, who will help you make wise decisions."

Elder Russell M. NelsonNOf the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, October 1990
