That golyetely? Nasty!....I finally finished it. |
The highlight really is having my first colonoscopy and endoscopy today. They put me under and did what needed to be done (sadly I didn't wake up loopy) . The night before was much worse. That golyetely? Said it was pineapple flavored, and yes it was, but it couldn't hide its true flavor. Cup after cup...trip after trip... until at around 9 i just took the gallon jug with me to the bathroom to chug! Chug! Chug!

During this time, I wanted to spend some time in the book of Mormon. The beginning to the end, I felt glad I had the whole day to read. At home I feel that to set aside that much time would be unrealistic for me, but this was a special circumstance that gave me a unique experience.
I took notes along the way that were thoughts that came to mind while I read. For example Jacob 1, there were no Samanites. Sure we had Lamanites, Zoramites, Ishmaelites, Lemulites, Nephites, Josephites, and Jacobites.
Mosiah 2, this time as I imagined king Benjamin's address I thought of President Monson, and how in his last address he was much like king Benjamin. He knew what he wanted us to hear. The spirit strengthened his body to stand and bare his testimony even when he had to grip the pulpit to deliver his message. And they both served the people, with "all the faculties of their bodies and souls". I'm grateful for them, and their examples. I love the Book of Mormon, for its stories and examples. I hope we can all look to the book of mormon, and find the power it has to change us. Elder George

President and Sister Hicks invited us for dinner. Unfortunate, I was on the 50 hour fast. 😢 |
