2024 In preVIEW

                                                           2024 CE/AD

01.01-
MONDAY

      I think the effects of jet lag are finally over. It has been four weeks since my return from Brazil. Yesterday's Book of Mormon Read-A-Thon at Bates City RLDS Church was sweetened by the presence of my wife, who is currently out shopping. As I reflect on what I learned in Brazil and what glorious things I experienced there, I realize that I am literally nothing and God is everything. Before, I had known this intellectually. Now it's heart knowledge.

The $100 Emily gave me for completing my Book of Mormon Read-Through and Book Report three weeks before January 1, 2024, I gave to PragerU. I give way more than that daily to the poor hungry naked addicted oppressed and needy.  The wedding gifts Samuel the Prophet of Israel gave me I have been using to the max, delighting in Father, the giver of the gifts. My new laptop, my sharp curvy yellow typewriter, my awesome tablet and wonderful cellphone I really appreciate as well as the help I got publishing my journals, Dungeon Cartoons and space opera movies and shows and Drew Yankovic motion comics, and the many other useful things I got on our wedding day. I'm still creating to this day as my fanfic boards on my websites show. My wife and I love vacationing down on the world I helped create, and the true accounts of our adventures there are chronicled in my New World Timeless Diary Addendums in my Non-fiction fanfic section on my website, and copypastad as additional Diaries to these ones on my Diary Sections of my websites.

My wife just returned home from Walmart in Blue Springs and I have to go help her get all the groceries in. She also picked up my meds from Wal~Mart in Oak Grove and got us a big bag of hot potato wedges to snack on at the Deli there.

TUESDAY

My wife watched TV with me today as we did our laundry at her house. Then we studied the Sealed Book of Mormon together. Then we drove back to our apartment and spent time together there. We are getting counselling on parenthood from Tracy, who was also our marriage counsellor. My wife is expecting twins in seven months. Joshua and Joseph will be our first and second born. The one who comes out first will be Josh. The second born will be Joey. Pastor Pete asked me a ton of questions about the Book of Mormon today over the phone. I sent Joey Ha. three important emails today. Uncle Ken and I had a good conversation over the phone later. I called Uncle Mark and we reconciled. He came clean about some of his former pet heresies. Just as sin and corruption come onto one in layers, repentance tears sin and corruption off in layers likewise.

WEDNESDAY

Prayer Meeting at First Branch of the Restructured Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was beautiful. The Holy Spirit's Presence was very palpable. My wife gave a beautiful Testimony of God bringing her back into my life even when she wasn't sure I was what she needed but God has showed her she needed me because of the Truth I showed her and the Witness I was to her, that saved her soul and her life and that I needed her just as much as she needed me. I gave my Testimony of how God brought us together also, and how God opened up doors for me to witness to her during our courtship, brief bethrothal, and our marriage. My wife expressed a desire to be Baptized. She gave a beautiful prayer. 

When we got home Shane, then Joey Ha. called. Shane just got a new phone. I called Colt on his newest phone. Colt and I had a very lengthy conversation.

Then my Wife and I watched a movie, and now we are about to pray at our altar, so goodnight, Diary.

THURSDAY

For the first three days this morning, my Wife and I sailed on the Ocean during a rough unharming storm, feeling the gentle yet strong rain upon our skins, and making landfall in a Cove (with a VERY narrow opening) in an Island where we made camp. When we resurfaced in this world, we brought coconuts, nuts, herbs and berries and other fruits and flora from that world home to this one that we had gathered from the Island. After we put the things away and ate some of it, we went job hunting together. I need a job, and she already has two. After an unsuccessful day of job hunting we returned home to her house and collapsed exhausted into each others' arms.  Then she had to go to work at 7 PM CDT, and I vacuumed her living room floor for her. I watched TV and I'm about to hit the sack.
Goodnight, Diary.

FRIDAY

My Wife and I watched Rise of The Jedi followed by Attack of the Clones and two episodes of The Clone Wars together today, then we went job hunting again. This time I got two leads, which I will follow up on. She went to work at 5 PM CDT, during which I spent time at my apartment watching YouTube and bitchute videos and typing stories on my typewriter. I also did quite a bit of research today. I read three chapters of Acts of the Three Nephites. I finally finished The Last Jedi by Jason Fry. I'm on p. 128 of The Memoirs of Joseph Smith III. The Organizational Behavior Textbook Rick lent me I'm about a quarter of the way through with. I'm about halfway through The Puritan Oligarchy and on p. 213 of Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. I started The Rise of Skywalker by Rae Carson and Erewohn by Samuel Butler today. I'm on p. 205 of A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens.

SATURDAY

My Wife and I went to the Philadelphia Church of God again today. She told me their ministers are "Smart, but they are far from having the fullness". That too was my observation. I asked an elder there what his opinion was of Ms. White. He said she had part of the truth and they had the whole truth. I remarked, if you knew there was a greater truth than even you have, would you seek it? "What's there to seek? We have the fulness of truth" He said. 
If only he knew.

At home we quietly observed the Sabbath.

LORD'S DAY-SUNDAY

Today I took Communion and my Wife observed. She is going to be baptized next week, Lord Willing.
There was a potluck after Church at the Restructured Church. After the rich repast, we went home, napped, then had a home devotional. We studied the Gospel of Mark in the Inspired Version together. Elder Mark Strychacz taught a class in the PM that my Wife and I attended at Bates City Restoration Branch. She asked me a lot of questions about the material covered in the class when we got home.

MONDAY

I had a job interview today. I think I did well on it.
My Wife and I worked and played on the Island down on our world for several weeks today, building a community of huts and a rec center. She is such a good architect. And I have better building and construction skills than I had believed. Some Angels and Saints came in a big sailing schooner to our Island and started inhabiting our hut community. Then we resurfaced and I went to my interview.

After the interview, I did our dishes and tidied up a bit at our apartment. I made a good dinner for us.
We studied the book In The Midst of Eternity together and The Endowment by Earl Curry. Then we spent time apart studying the Scriptures individually, then she came back to me with questions, questions and more questions, which I tried to answer best I could.  We watched the movie God's Not Dead together at the end of the day, and a little Newsmax and Epoch Times, PragerU and Fox News to stay a little abreast of what's going on in the world, then now we will retire for the night. Adieu, Diary.

TUESDAY

Today around 7 PM I visited my friend Rick. The laptop and Smartphone God gave me to give to him he seems to be adapting well to. He likes the glut of information he now has instant access to 24/7. He says it helps him greatly in his studies. For the first time in forever, I had some of his chocolate milk. So rich, so creamy, so dreamy! I went down to Casey's and bought some 7-Up for him. He was about out. I carried it to him in my backpack on my bike from the store. I returned home at 11 PM to find my wife reading a book on my loveseat petting Gandalf, now with his front claws declawed and neutered, 209 dollar pet deposit long since payed and treated for fleas and ticks, and checked for worms. I didn't even look to see what she was reading, I just plunked myself down beside her and  draped one arm over her shoulder, and rested my other hand on my knee. She kept reading for at least an hour as we just sat there like that. Later I got up, and now I'm journaling, and I'm about to go to bed. Adios, Diary.

WODEN'S DAY

Pastor Pete is on John 17 now in John.

He still believes that all Christendom is of the Same Baptism, but I'm keeping my mouth shut.

He does not understand the Mystery of the Godhead as even the Armstrongites do. He still sees Jesus as a stack of his Titles as a linear substitute for the Plurality of Gods.

We need to be one with each other as God is one with us.

How can we be if we have not obeyed his commandment to build the Temple?

If we are not one we are not his.

Scary thought.

Does that mean no one in this man's church are His?

Or even the True Church?

Certainly I am the only one in this sanctuary who can truly claim to be a Child of God, and my wife will be able to also make that claim come Sunday.

Jesus wasn't just praying for his disciples with him but for all future Believers. True enough.

Maggie is looking over my shoulder at my notes I am hurriedly pecking out on my smartphone on my Journal site.  She has read my journals to some extent, but I am fond of her curiosity. She smiled when I typed that.

We can't live without each other. How true.

That parallels the Inspired Message of Vernon Darling in 2003: You cannot exist without each other. I am convinced some people heard "You cannot exist for others" and that may be what the Microphone picked up. Maggie my wife cocked an eyebrow when I typed that. She smiled again.

We must live for each other, supporting one another in our daily endeavors. We must serve each other.

That is how we should live. I know God uses all Believers. Once a Priesthood man was told that God was using that Nun for his purposes. Pastor Pete was called here to Zion, after all.

When Maggie and I got home from Pastor Pete's church, we listened to an RLDS Sermon on CD, then went out to Wendy's to hang with Rick, Cindy and Jo's Sister until 10 PM. Maggie bought us all Frosties.

Ciou, Diary.
