Moroni 7

 WOW!  WOW!  WOW!

What an incredible chapter; mainly it is on Faith, Hope, and Charity.

It is so inspiring.  How do the prophets even write such amazing and inspiring words/

My new favorite chapter.

JONAH and the Whale

Allen doesn't really believe in the story itself.  He thinks it is a story to prove a point.  He asked the other night in our scripture reading time; what can we learn from this? Well, I DO believe it's real.  If God could part the RED SEA, he could have a giant fish-like creature  whale and cause the whale to spit Jonah out on the land.  So, I believe in the story. But it's also important to think about what the story means. To me, it means, we CAN NEVER RUN AWAY FROM GOD........and that's a good thing actually....because the rest of the story tells us that God follows us and allows us MERCY.  He is willing to give us second chances; He is willing to forgive us....HE wants us to follow HIM. And, when we do, we are blessed.  Not that we won't have trials, but that he will always be there in our trials.

Alma 44

  19  Now Zerahemnah, when he saw that they were all about to be destroyed, cried mightily unto Moroni, promising that he would covenant and also his people with them, if they would spare the remainder of their lives, that they  a never  would come to war again against them. Once again, this scripture points out the WILL TO LIVE!  Zerahemnah makes a promise he is not likely to keep because of his strong desire to LIVE.  Life is so precious... I know that I want to live, but I want to LIVE with Heavenly Father in the hereafter.  II've made so many stupid decisions in my life that I don't want to blow this one last final decision... TO LIVE WITH GOD!  That is my heart's desire, most of all.

Insight From the Book of Mormon

 I've listened to the Book of Mormon multiple times.   And, I always gain insight and learn something. So, this morning, driving to the gym,  I listened in 1st Nephi as Lehi discovered an object outside his tent door.  It was the Liahona, which, of course, I knew about.  It directed them in their travels.   But the thing I had forgotten was that it also had actually messages on it.  I hadn't remembered that. Imagine getting written instructions from the Lord.  Wouldn't that be marvelous...oh wait, we have that already with the Book of Mormon, Bible, modern talks of the prophets.  We do live in a miraculous world. I also realized that kids today wouldn't even think anything of a director to guide us as we travel.  They have grown up with GPS systems, but to those of us who didn't grow up with a GPS, it is a modern miracle.   I love the Book of Mormon!
