Peacemakers
The Prophet wants me to be a peacemaker. He wants me to stop being contentious and using foul language. But mostly he wants me to worship Jesus Christ. Even on Easter I don’t feel particularly Christian. The verse of the day was John 3:16 and it’s not much comfort. I keep asking myself, “Do I…

Logging Out
Most sites on the internet make it too easy to stay logged in. It is convenient and for anything that doesn’t seem particularly sensitive I don’t care. But there are a few sites that I want to remain logged out of on my phone. If the phone is lost or stolen, I want it to…

Good Friday 26
It is Good Friday so my anti Lent vow to not quote the Bible is over. I have quoted the Bible today, but I have also quoted the Book of Mormon and the Quran. “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4 KJV “Behold, they will crucify him; and after he…

Pica
Eating things that aren’t food is called pica. I ate paper as a child. I swallowed string. I did some serious damage to my digestive system eating mint flavored toothpicks.

I got a refund today and it was enough to get tacos for Stephanie and McDonald’s for Ben and me. He always gets their chicken nuggets. I watched as he opened up the box and then two of the BBQ packets. He set the box down neatly in the lid of the box and dipped…

Daily Hymns
On Sundays the hymns for the ward are posted in the LDS Gospel Library app. I usually listen to those for my daily hymns. Today the hymns were Easter favorites. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints doesn’t celebrate Palm Sunday and we usually celebrate Easter on Easter. But lately Holy Saturday and…

Not a Saint
I am not a Latter Day Saint. I am a Latter Day Sinner who declares his unworthiness before God.

Pustular
I learned a new word today. Something that is oozing pus is pustular. Ether’s butt is bloody and pustular. He needs to see a vet, but nobody has the spoons for that. Stephanie put on some lotion and it seemed to help. He’s in better shape than he was this winter in all other regards.…
