Today, I woke up at 3:45 after getting about 7 hours of sleep including a nap yesterday. I worked for 9 hours.

I took another nap today for about 45 minutes or so.

Today is so wonderful, after about 2 or 3 weeks in a row with having computer issues to resolve that included 2-hour-long phone calls, I got to attend institute again today.

Today’s lesson in institute was about the creation, as told through revelation in the Book of Abraham.

And God said let there be bacon, and [insert dramatic pause here] there was bacon.

Allen 1:2

We discussed that the earth was made out of material that already existed, because matter cannot be created nor destroyed. The Genesis and Moses account of the creation were both written by Moses, and Abraham’s account by Abraham. All things were created spiritually, but are created to only reproduce in it’s own likeness. In Abraham, it shows that God actually physically made the earth, not just watched it happen.

I got to sleep around 9:15pm.
