Journal Entry:

I've been having diarrhea since Monday morning. It's as bad as any I have had before that I can remember. For some reason it eased up a little on Tuesday so I was able to serve at the Bishops Storehouse. Then it came back on Wednesday morning but eased up in time for me to serve at the temple. Then this morning it came back pretty harshly so I went to see Dr. Welch and he made some recommendations but felt, as I do that it would heal up on its own. He recommended Imodium so we got some of that and I took some this afternoon.

I thought I wrote something yesterday but I either didn't or I messed it up. Either way - making it up today.

Come Follow Me 

D&C 64: 32 But all things must come to pass in their time.

33 Wherefore, be not weary in well-doing, for ye are laying the foundation of a great work. And out of small things proceedeth that which is great.

"We must not become weary of doing good, and we must not become impatient; the changes we seek will come about “in their time.” Most important, the great work we wish to do will proceed from “small things.”

…Spirituality through prayer and study. Service to others. Generous tithes and offerings. These are not new principles. These are some of the “small things” that are prerequisites to that which is great.

…[D]on’t become weary in doing good. If we are patient, we can experience the change of heart we seek."
