December 11, 2012

It's very late, and it's been a long day, so I'm going to keep this short. We did some packing, I did a bunch of work, Becky did some errands as well, and the good news of the day is that it sounds like we might potentially close a couple days early on the house. Even two days earlier (e.g. on the 18th) would be great, as we'd then have the chance to get more stuff over and unpacked for Christmas. Anyway, we'll see how it goes.

Alma and Amulek are the reading for the day, which I just completed -- yes, I'm doing this backwards, as I should be reading in the morning first thing. That's my resolution for tomorrow: read first, then do other stuff! Anyway, being it's Christmas, the scripture is a nice lead up to the birth of the Savior:

Alma 9: 26: "And not many days hence the Son of God shall come in his glory; and his glory shall be the glory of the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace, equity, and truth, full of patience, mercy, and long-suffering, quick to hear the cries of his people and to answer their prayers." (The Book of Mormon, pp. 231)
