Elder Isom, I hope you are having a wonderful week. I see Tate is down there now. It seems strange that he will leave before you. I was talking to someone the other day and they knew of missionaries that had to be at the MTC for three months to learn their language.
One of the steers got out Sunday morning so we had to get him in before stake conference. Elder K. David Scott was our presiding authority. It was really good. Saturday evening President Hawker said we are living in the day of revelation, enlightenment, and refinement. We all need stronger testimonies.
Elder Scott stated 1)"God does not care be about time. It is about timing." 2)"Seers today see 5 to 10 years in the future and are telling us what we need to do to prepare." 3) " If I seek it, the Lord will give me revelation." 4) "God gathers and Satin divides." I will give more of his message in the future. I think Mom shared some.
I mowed the orchard yesterday. I moved the pipe in the South so I could mow all of the rows. Mom and I went to Utah for Mom's dentist appointment today. I sent a letter from Tallyn and a newspaper clippings yesterday. The days are starting to cool so maybe the apples will grow bigger. Harvest will be here quickly. A lot to do to get ready. I sprayed the clover in the lawn. It is dieing so that should help the lawn look better.
I am working Saturday. I downloaded that app so you can try calling. My favorite scripture of the week is 1Nephi 18:3. I love you and can see so much spiritual growth already. Have a great week.
Dad
