Love Never Fails

2010-02-07T19:08:00.000-08:00

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. Corinthians 13:4

Something Important Today

Moroni 7: 42-44

Wherefore, if a man have faith he must needs have hope; for without faith there cannot be any hope.

And again, behold I say unto you that he cannot have faith and hope, save he shall be meek, and lowly of heart.

If so, his faith and hope is vain, for none is acceptable before God, save the meek and lowly in heart; and if a man be meek and lowly in heart, and confesses by the power of the Holy Ghost that Jesus is the Christ, he must needs have charity; for if he have not charity he is nothing; wherefore he must needs have charity.

Blessings

2009-10-04T04:48:00.000-07:00

The word is AMAZING! Amazing how automactic and guaranteed that the blessings will come if you only ask, and if you are sincere and pure at heart. I know for a fact because it happened to me.

...and the blessings that mattered most were not the material ones, they were the ones that lifted the burdens off my shoulders. The blessings that gave me hope were ten times more important.

2 Nephi 1: 10
"But behold, when the time cometh that they shall dwindle in unbelief, after they have received so great blessings from the hand of the Lord—having a knowledge of the creation of the earth, and all men, knowing the great and marvelous works of the Lord from the creation of the world; having power given them to do all things by faith; having all the commandments from the beginning, and having been brought by his infinite goodness into this precious land of promise—behold, I say, if the day shall come that they will reject the Holy One of Israel, the true Messiah, their Redeemer and their God, behold, the judgments of him that is just shall rest upon them."

Deuteronomy 28: 2
"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God."

Proverbs 10: 6
"Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked."

Prov. 28: 20
"A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent."

Word of the Week: ATONEMENT

2009-09-27T09:11:00.000-07:00

" And after they have been scattered, and the Lord God hath scourged them by other nations for the space of many generations, yea, even down from generation to generation until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God, and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind—and when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ, and worship the Father in his name, with pure hearts and clean hands, and look not forward any more for another Messiah, then, at that time, the day will come that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things." 2 Nephi 25:16

If so, wo shall come upon you; but if not so, then cast about your eyes and begin to believe in the Son of God, that he will come to redeem his people, and that he shall suffer and die to atone for their sins; and that he shall rise again from the dead, which shall bring to pass the resurrection, that all men shall stand before him, to be judged at the last and judgment day, according to their works. Alma 33: 22

For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father. Mosiah 3:19

Love all God's Children

2009-09-25T19:04:00.000-07:00

"People are Often Unreasonable, Illogical and Self Centered, We Need to Love Them Anyway!

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered...
forgive them anyway!

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives...
be kind anyway!

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and make some true enemies...succeed anyway!

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you...
be honest anyway!

What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight...
go ahead and build it anyway!

If you find serenity and happiness, people may be jealous...
be happy anyway!

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow...
do good anyway!

Give the world the best you have, and even that may never be enough...
give it anyway!

You see in the final analysis, its always between you and God,
it was never between you and them anyway!!

Mother Teresa"
