Life isnt unfair now what

Christ endured every kind of test, trail, pain, temptation, every negative feel we can experience in this life. He descend below all thing so that he can save all thing if would come unto him. As we rely on the atonement of Jesus Christ, He can help us endure our trials, sicknesses and pains. Alma 7  11And he shall go forth, suffering pains and aafflictions and btemptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will ctake upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people.
 12And he will take upon him adeath, that he may bloose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to csuccor his people according to their infirmities.

 We can be filled with Joy, peace, and consolation. All that is unfair about life can be made right through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Know that he has been their and know how to get us out of it. He loves us doesn't want us to suffer. We suffer cause of our own chooses or by reason of the fall. But some times we suffer because of others with no fault to us. As we seek out the lord in our life's we will find comforter that he promised he would send.

What Does the LDS church have to offer you

What can The church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints or Mormon church can give that you don't already have. We love and respect other church and religion, we Honor all who worship their God. But we know what to be true. God is the source of all truth, and it doesn't change. So God is a true or false God. either its True and real or False and fake. You learn or ourselves by pray and study the truth of all things

Fullness of the gospel. their are thousand of ideas about God and his gospel some true and some false. After the Christ left the earth and death of the apostles there was no one to keep the doctrine's, teachings, and ordinances pure. Many thing were lost tougth the years. But God has  called a new prophet Joseph Smith How brought  the fullness of Gospel the power unto salvation. The gospel in its fullness can help us face ever change and test of life. Plus full our life with joy and happiness. I love the gospel its has bless to in many ways. We need not wounder what is real, we know!


Priesthood.The priesthood is the authority to act in God’s name. The same priesthood authority that existed in the original Church established by Jesus Christ exists in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today. The Church is directed and led through this authority.
All male members of the Church who are prepared receive the priesthood in order to help lead the Church and serve Heavenly Father’s children. A man with the priesthood might serve in some of the following ways:
  • Leading congregations of the Church
  • Performing the ordinances of the Church, such as baptism
  • Blessing those who are sick.
 I have seen miracles happen in my by the priesthood. Its the lord's hand in your life.

Temples. Temples are special buildings to the  lord. inside that upon our self special promise and in turn when we live up to our promise  the lord will bless with great gifts. The greats of this gifts is Family relationships can last forever—not just for this life.Family members who accept the Atonement of Jesus Christ and follow His example can be together forever through sacred ordinances performed in God’s holy temples. These ordinances seal a husband and wife together for all eternity and children to their parents as an eternal family. (See: “The Family: A Proclamation to the World”)

How to be great parent

Their is tons of marriages books and programs that try to help improve our family. Jesus set the prefect example for all of us in all things. As we follow  is teaching, commandments, live gospel we will find the help to we need.

The Atonement is power to be great parent.  Mosiah 3:19For the anatural bman is an cenemy to God, and has been from the dfall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he eyields to the enticings of the Holy fSpirit, and gputteth off the hnatural man and becometh a isaint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a jchild, ksubmissive, 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. To be a saint is to have the attributes of the a great parent. Much of this are the Christ like Attributes of Faith, hope, charity, practice, diligence, humility, and other. All this thing spell out a great parent. But hope do we develop them? Frist Moroni 8 25And the first fruits of arepentance is bbaptism; and baptism cometh by faith unto the fulfilling the commandments; and the fulfilling the commandments bringeth cremission of sins;
 26And the remission of sins bringeth ameekness, and lowliness of heart; and because of meekness and lowliness of heart cometh the visitation of the bHoly Ghost, which cComforter dfilleth with hope and perfect elove, which love endureth by fdiligence unto gprayer, until the end shall come, when all the hsaints shall dwell with God.  As we gain faith, repent, being baptised, and being fulled of the Holy Ghost  we will find ourselves becoming more like our savior. Last Moroni 7 48Wherefore, my beloved brethren, apray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true bfollowers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall cbe like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be dpurified even as he is pure. Amen.  We can pray for help and the lord will give it.


Here is a talk about an apostles got the most out of his marriage. Its great.

How God answers questions

Revelation is communication from God to His children on the earth and one of the great blessings associated with the gift and constant companionship of the Holy Ghost. The Prophet Joseph Smith taught, “The Holy Ghost is a revelator,” and “no man can receive the Holy Ghost without receiving revelations”

The spirit of revelation is available to every person who receives by proper priesthood authority the saving ordinances of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins and the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost

We could receive whatever knowledge was necessary to complete our work if they asked in faith, with an honest heart, believing they would receive. And over time they increasingly understood the spirit of revelation typically functions as thoughts and feelings that come into our minds and hearts by the power of the Holy Ghost. (See D&C 8:1–2; 100:5–8.)Most frequently, revelation comes in small increments over time and is granted according to our desire, worthiness, and preparation. Such communications from Heavenly Father gradually and gently “distil upon [our souls] as the dews from heaven” (D&C 121:45).

What is a mormon

The first thing to answer that question is. The true name of the Mormon church is "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. By modern Revelation to founder of our church Joesph Smith "For thus shall amy bchurch be called in the last days, even The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day cSaints". Because of the Book of Mormon, we are frequently called the Mormon Church, a title we do not resent, but it is really not accurate. We go by others names like l.d.s or latter day saints and others

Some claim we are not Christians. They either do not know us at all or they misunderstand. In the Church every ordinance is done by the authority of and in the name of Jesus Christ. 6 We have the same organization as did the primitive Church, with apostles and prophets. 7 Anciently the Lord called and ordained Twelve Apostles. In time the Apostles and the priesthood they carried were gone. The authority and power to administer had to be restored. For centuries men looked forward to the return of the authority and the establishment of the Lord’s Church.

Then in 1820 a boy name Joseph Smith started a chain reaction. That lead to  him being called a prophet today and restoring ever doctrine,princples , and ordinances pretanting to life and salvation. And in 1829 the priesthood was restored to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery.  We know that is Jesus Christ true church with the same organisation and priesthood authority that present when Christ and his apostles walk the earth.

The work in the Church today is performed by ordinary men and women called and sustained to preside, to teach, and to administer. It is by the power of revelation and the gift of the Holy Ghost that those called are guided to know the Lord’s will. A Latter-day Saint is quite an ordinary individual. We are now everywhere in the world, 14 million of us. This is only the beginning. We are taught to be in the world but not of the world. 17 Therefore, we live ordinary lives in ordinary families mixed in with the general population.

In Short a Mormon is just like every one else but they are have the missing piece of the gospel that was lost though century's.

"If a man die, shall he alive again" job 14:14

The sting of death hits us all. When ever is experience a death of a love one. I always question will i ever seen them again, what will be like, what happens when i die? The revealed truth gives us the answers to life's most troubling questions. In the talk called "He is Risen!" by president Thomas s. Monson the modern day prophets gives as insists of death and Christ mission to save all man kind.

Death calms its victims in all ages in many ways. We can't escape it. Once asked of Job of old 'If a man die, shall he live again?”—and provide the answer which comes not only from thoughtful consideration but also from the revealed word of God

To understand the meaning of death, we must appreciate the purpose of life.We know that our purpose was to gain a physical body, to overcome trials, and to prove that we would keep the commandments of God. Our Father knew that because of the nature of mortality, we would be tempted, would sin, and would fall short. So that we might have every chance of success, He provided a Savior, who would suffer and die for us. Not only would He atone for our sins, but as a part of that Atonement, He would also overcome the physical death to which we would be subject because of the Fall of Adam.

Jesus spent his life doing good. Near the end we went to the garden of Gethsemane to bring What is called the Atonement. No mere mortal can conceive the full import of what Christ did for us in Gethsemane.Following the agony of Gethsemane, now drained of strength, He was seized by rough, crude hands and taken before Annas, Caiaphas, Pilate, and Herod. He was accused and cursed. Vicious blows further weakened His pain-racked body. Blood ran down His face as a cruel crown fashioned of sharp thorns was forced onto His head, piercing His brow. And then once again He was taken to Pilate, who gave in to the cries of the angry mob: “Crucify him, crucify him.” 9

He was scourged with a whip into whose multiple leather strands sharp metals and bones were woven. Rising from the cruelty of the scourge, with stumbling steps He carried His own cross until He could go no farther and another shouldered the burden for Him.

Finally, on a hill called Calvary, while helpless followers looked on, His wounded body was nailed to a cross. Mercilessly He was mocked and cursed and derided. And yet He cried out, “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” 10

No words in Christendom mean more to me than those spoken by the angel to the weeping Mary Magdalene and the other Mary when, on the first day of the week, they approached the tomb to care for the body of their Lord. Spoke the angel:

“Why seek ye the living among the dead?
“He is not here, but is risen.” 12

Our Savior lived again. The most glorious, comforting, and reassuring of all events of human history had taken place—the victory over death. The pain and agony of Gethsemane and Calvary had been wiped away. The salvation of mankind had been secured

My beloved brothers and sisters, in our hour of deepest sorrow, we can receive profound peace from the words of the angel that first Easter morning: “He is not here: for he is risen.” 17

He is risen! He is risen!
Tell it out with joyful voice.
He has burst his three days’ prison;
Let the whole wide earth rejoice.
Death is conquered; man is free.

The lamb of God, the plenty of sin, and the cross




I love the movie "the lion the witch and the wardrobe" for many reasons. First is just a great children friendly movie, good story, but  the biggest is much is story is like the life of Christ. And how the Christ take upon himself the sins of the word. In the story Edward betrayed his brother and sisters, and some real big mistakes. As according to old law all lies and betrays belong to the evil witch  to do as she please, and if he would given to her the whole world would be destroyed. His family and Aslan the God of the world still loved him didn't want to be lost. So in is place Aslan silent and peaceful was mock, beaten, and suffered to death for what Edward did cause he love him and he didn't what Edward to suffer.. But the next day Aslan came came back to life with all his gory. He was ask how it was done, he explained he when one without fault took the place other another. The stone table of justice world crack and even death its self world turn back.




alsan  sacrificed for Edward mistake
 
When think how this wonderful story i cannot but think of savior of the world. For we all make mistakes or sins and all in need of help from another. For Christ live a sinless life and was only able to suffer all sins. For he didn't an atonement. So the greatest being to walk this earth, Isaiah 53   7He was aoppressed, and he was bafflicted, yet he copened not his mouth: he is brought as a dlamb to the eslaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.We read  in book of Mormon Alma 34    10For it is expedient that there should be a great and last asacrifice; yea, not a bsacrifice of man, neither of beast, neither of any manner of fowl; for it shall not be a human sacrifice; but it must be an cinfinite and deternal esacrifice. He sacrificed ever thing for us. I have made mistake and am so thankful that he was willing and able to do it.


Aslan returns in his glory

How much does God loves you?

Worth  of ever soul is great in the eyes of God. I know this true, God loves all of us with all his heart. This made manifest by Him sending his only begotten Son to suffer and die for us.There is no greater expression of love than the heroic Atonement performed by the Son of God. Today i was reading a talk called the atonement and the value of one soul, by Elder Ballard. I tried it find a video of it but no lucky. So i will Pull some my favorites parts out of it..

He starts the talk by talking about how he lost grandson in plane crash, and how a knowledge of the atonement help him. The Savior’s precious birth, life, Atonement in the Garden of Gethsemane, suffering on the cross, burial in the tomb, and glorious Resurrection all became a renewed reality for us. The Savior’s Resurrection assures all of us that someday we, too, will follow Him and experience our own resurrection. What peace, what comfort this great gift is which comes through the loving grace of Jesus Christ, the Savior and Redeemer of all mankind. We will see our love  ones again, death can separate us for moment.

In the Garden of Gethsemane, He knelt and in some incredible way that none of us can fully comprehend, the Savior took upon Himself the sins of the world. Even though His life was pure and free of sin, He paid the ultimate penalty for sin—yours, mine, and everyone who has ever lived. His mental, emotional, and spiritual anguish were so great they caused Him to bleed from every pore (see Luke 22:44; D&C 19:18). And yet Jesus suffered willingly so that we might all have the opportunity to be washed clean—through having faith in Him, repenting of our sins, being baptized by proper priesthood authority, receiving the purifying gift of the Holy Ghost by confirmation, and accepting all other essential ordinances.

Then the agony of inquisition, cruel beatings, and death by crucifixion on the cross at Calvary. No one had the power to take the Savior’s life from Him. He gave it as a ransom for us all. As the Son of God, He had the power to alter the situation. Yet the scriptures clearly state that He yielded Himself to scourging, humiliation, suffering, and finally crucifixion because of His great love towards the children of men (see 1 Ne. 19:9
I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died
 
 
Jesus Christ, the Savior and Redeemer of all mankind, is not dead. He lives—the resurrected Son of God lives.He cares for each one of us.

I believe that if we could truly understand the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ, we would realize how precious is one son or daughter of God.I believe that if we could truly understand the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ, we would realize how precious is one son or daughter of God.  Heavenly Father has reached out to us through the Atonement of our Savior. He invites all to “come unto Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel, and partake of his salvation, and the power of his redemption” (Omni 1:26). He has taught us that it is through our faithful adherence to gospel principles, through receiving the saving ordinances that have been restored, through continual service, and by enduring to the end that we can return to His sacred presence. What possible thing in the whole world is remotely as important as to know this?

in the eyes of the Lord, there may be only one size of audience that is of lasting importance—and that is just one, each one, you and me, and each one of the children of God. The irony of the Atonement is that it is infinite and eternal, yet it is applied individually, one person at a time. Never underestimate how precious is the one

Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me
Enough to die for me!
Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!

How Mormons can endure all things

 True strength doesn't come though pressing weights or protein shakes. Strength of body will be fad into the winters of age and almost never to found again. Their is a nearer strength, the center for faith and character . That make who we are, and is a foundation for our soul.. We can draw strength of character and emotional strength though the Atonement of our savior Jesus Christ. These the week of Easter  i wish speak Easter we can gain in Easter. Easter brings thoughts of Jesus, His life, His Atonement, His Resurrection, His love. He has risen from the dead “with healing in his wings” (Malachi 4:2; 3 Nephi 25:2).

As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can understand more fully the breadth and depth of healing provided by His Atonement because we have the fulness of His doctrine. We realize that what He has willingly done with immense suffering and sacrifice will affect us not only in this life but throughout all eternity. Jesus suffered all things and descend below all things, so he can help us rise above all things. He loves us all the wish to lift us up by his Atonement

Jesus Christ lives. He is our Savior, our Redeemer. He is a glorious, resurrected being. He has the capacity to communicate love that is so powerful, so overwhelming as to surpass the capacity of the human tongue to express adequately. He gave His life to break the bonds of death. Death the greats enemy. we have spent years, money, and lives  it effort to perverse life. In one event Christ made it possible for all us to overcome death and come back.

There is an imperative need for each of us to strengthen our understanding of the significance of the Atonement of Jesus Christ so that it will become an unshakable foundation upon which to build our lives. As the world becomes more devoid of foundational standards and as honor, virtue, and purity are increasingly cast aside in the pursuit of appetite, our understanding of and faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ will provide strength and capacity needed for a successful life. It will also bring confidence in times of trial and peace in moments of turmoil.  I love these time of year for it helps me remember the Man how did all thing for me. I LOVE MY SAVIOR!

We are never alone with Jesus Christ

 This morning i felt like a doing a Easter week. A post a day to prepare for Easter Sunday. On Easter we celebrate the single greatest event of human history. When Christ with great courage faced and overcame the penalty of and  death it self. This is know as the Atonement,  to atone is to suffer the penalty for an act of sin, thereby removing the effects of sin from the repentant sinner and allowing him to be reconciled to God. Also with death of Christ on the cross and resurrection from the grave. Provide all people will rise from the dead with immortal bodies.  This is one my favorite talks about the atonement, you can tell he truly loves his savior. Christ went though most painful and alonist experiences. We can draw strength  knowing that cause Christ suffered all thing we need not suffer, and we will never be alone God is ways ready to receive us. I know this real and we can  overcome all of our mistakes, adversity, and even death it self. Please watch the video tell how have you see Christ suffer give you strength and comfort?

Run to Christ dont walk

This life is proving ground or place of testing to see if  we follow Christ. We all have a the ability to choose good or bad. That is what call agency the power to choose, it is a gift from a loving Heavenly Father. No one can take take gift from you. You always have the power to choose the right no matter the situation. But that brings us by my topic is not only what you choose but when you choose. Procrastination one the hardiest habit to kick. Its is so easy to wait until is tomorrow or next  week, month, year. We wait hoping the choose before will go away, that it will resolve itself.

Acting now with the knowable we have is core principle of living the gospel. It will never be easy to be disciple of Christ. That is how it is, part of test. Plus we never fully understand God or commandments. That why is so importance to act now with knowledge you have now. If have need repent or change the time to do so is now. Do not procrastinate the day of your repentance. 2 nephi 9 27But wo unto him that has the alaw given, yea, that has all the commandments of God, like unto us, and that btransgresseth them, and that cwasteth the days of his dprobation, for awful is his state! Don't  wait to come to Christ, coming to Christ though repentance fullness our soul with joy and light. Taking away shame and guilt. This is our purpose in life, RUN TO HIM, For he has run to our aid. We can wrapped in His arms so mercy if simple move toward him without delay.

The Desires of our heart

There is lot of forces pulling us in different direction some good some bad.  choices are always before us, Which one do we choice. I have thinking  of the path life and choice what are lead by our desires.Desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions. The desires we act on determine our changing, our achieving, and our becoming. Desires=goals in life, what we want out of life. As for me i desire to raise a happy family, live a good life, and always try to become a better follow of Christ. So my choices is life will reflect that desire.Many scriptures speak of what we desire in terms of what we seek.

Readjusting our desires to give highest priority to the things of eternity is not easy. We are all tempted to desire that worldly quartet of property, prominence, pride, and power. We might desire these, but we should not fix them as our highest priorities. Has read in the bible  in Matt 6 24aNo man can bserve two cmasters: for either he will dhate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and emammon. and  in 33aBut bseek ye first the ckingdom of God, and his drighteousness; and all these ethings shall be fadded unto you. To please God should be our highest priorities in life.  Doing that will bring more joy and peace into our life.  Your can read more on the this on http://lds.org/general-conference/2011/04/desire?lang=eng

How to forgive yourself

We all make mistakes some big some small. but we all do it. When we fail to do what god has command that is mistake and a sin. All sin hurst us sooner or later. But how can we repair the mistake. In the scipturs is tells us all of us need to repent. Has we repent we have to turn alway from the past and let is got. In Book of Mormon, Alma 42, the prophet is talking to his son how made some real bad mistakes and at the end he tells this to his son. 29And now, my son, I desire that ye should let these things atrouble you no more, and only let your sins trouble you, with that trouble which shall bring you down unto repentance. So repentance is sorrow and dispear for the  sin balanced with the of hope of forgivness. And in morden revaation to Joseph Smith the prophet  wrote "Behold, he who has arepented of his bsins, the same is cforgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more." So as he truly repent the lord forgets it. So we learn From past and let the past be past and move on.  Don’t get discouraged if you stumble at times. Don’t feel downcast or despair if you don’t feel worthy to be a disciple of Christ at all times. The first step to walking in righteousness is simply to try. We must try to believe. Try to learn of God: read the scriptures; study the words of His latter-day prophets; choose to listen to the Father, and do the things He asks of us. Try and keep on trying until that which seems difficult becomes possible—and that which seems only possible becomes habit and a real part of you.

Why i need a prophet today

Frist we most understand what a prophet is and what he does for us. A prophet is a person who has been called by and speaks for God. As a messenger of God, a prophet receives commandments, prophecies, and revelations from God” (“Prophet,” scriptures.lds.org; see also Bible Dictionary, “Prophet”  Also we are told that “surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7). We learn from this scripture that the Lord will reveal to His prophets absolutely anything that He feels is necessary to communicate to us. He will reveal His will to us, and He will instruct us through His prophets.

I have been asked many times "how can i trust a man, i might lead me wrong? To anwer that question their is a qoute from President Wilford Woodruff a prior president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints  said: “The Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as President of this Church to lead you astray. It is not in the programme. It is not in the mind of God. If I were to attempt that, the Lord would remove me out of my place, and so He will any other man who attempts to lead the children of men astray from the oracles of God and from their duty” (Official Declaration 1). 

if you what to learn how the God speaks to us personaly and by prophets. Go to this link and learn the importance of both http://lds.org/general-conference/2010/10/two-lines-of-communication?lang=eng

mythbusters about mormons

Their is tons of myths and false statements about Mormons out there. Understanding is the key to this blog, i want the every one to understand the trueth about Mormons. So i will answer three common myths. If you have questions or more myth want answered please just comment. I have pulled almost all my information from our church website called Mormon.org. you can go there for more information about your church. All truth comes from God comfirmed by the Holy Spirit

Myth 1
That mormons practice polygamy. . This Church has nothing whatever to do with those practicing polygamy. They are not members of this Church We believe marriage is ordained of God. It is a special bond for us to grow and have family's. At various times, the Lord has commanded His people to practice plural marriage.For example, He gave this command to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, and Solomon. In this dispensation, the Lord commanded some of the early Saints to practice plural marriage. Church leaders regulated the practice. The Lord’s law of marriage is monogamy unless he commands otherwise to help establish the House of Israel.

Myth 2
The Book of Mormon is our verison of the Bible. Is one troubles me the most for on the cover of the book is states that it is another testament of Christ. Mean that we believe in the bible is word of God. The Book of Mormon is another witness that Jesus Christ really lived, that He was and is God’s Son. It contains the writings of ancient prophets.One of these, Lehi, lived in Jerusalem around 600 B.C. God commanded Lehi to lead a small group of people to the American continent. There they became a great civilization.
God continued to call prophets among these people. The Book of Mormon is a collection of the writings of their prophets and record keepers.As you study the scriptures, you will grow closer to God and be better able to live righteously. Scripture study will bring you more joy, hope, and understanding of God’s plan and your place in that plan it.The Book of Mormon concludes with a great promise that those who read it and sincerely pray about it can know by the Holy Ghost that it is true (Moroni 10:4).

Myth 3
We not believe in Christ, and we worship Joseph Smith. The True name of our church is THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS , so his name is the name of our church.  We know that Jesus Christ is the literal Son of God. His birth, life, death, and resurrection fulfilled the many prophecies contained in the scriptures concerning the coming of a Savior. He was the Creator, He is our Savior, and He will be our Judge (see Isaiah 9:6, 53:3-7; Psalms 22:16-18). About us worshiping Joseph smith, President Gordon B. Hinckley, prior president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints made the following statement in 2005 about Joseph Smith:
We do not worship [Joseph Smith] the Prophet. We worship God our Eternal Father and the risen Lord Jesus Christ. But we acknowledge the Prophet; we proclaim him; we respect him; we reverence him as an instrument in the hands of the Almighty in restoring to the earth the ancient truths of the divine gospel, together with the priesthood through which the authority of God is exercised in the affairs of His Church and for the blessing of His people” (Gordon B. Hinckley, “Joseph Smith Jr.—Prophet of God, Mighty Servant,” Ensign, Dec 2005, 2–6).

train of sin

This morning we plain on biking to library to do our Facebook missionary work. Their was two way we could go one the the shorter and easier way and then the longer and more hill path. We choice the easier one bu as we chest the first hill and train came and block the path for about 15 minutes. After some time the train moved and we able to process on our journey.  You the path we choice run across the tracks, but the other way is hard cause it goes over track Which we would be biking up a huge hill. But in long run that one would have been the best one.

As bike I was think how the that event relates to our spiritual lives. There are two choices before us the Way God has set as the best and one that man makes. Usual the one from  the natual man at fist seems easier and faster, and path of God longer, painful, and requires  more energy.  As we take the path of man we are lead to sin. When we sin our spiritual grow and process is stoped. Like the the train that block our path. Sin delays our spiritual grow. We had to wait until the track were clear then we could continue on. So we have to clear the track of our life of sin before we can go on. It may seem harder to choice want God has asked of us, but in the long run in will prove better for us. God know what best for us we just need the trust him and odey what He says. Then we will be lead down a path free and of trains of sin that block us. God has set the path of safety for our soul if we take any deviation put us at risk of bring trap behind a train

Gods love the power to have peace of mind

This life is full of thing that hurt us spiritual, emotional, and physical. This a fact of life we cant not escape the troubles and challenges of life. Not eve faith in Christ  can take  away this thing. But God has proved a way for to met the troubles and challenges of life and overcome them with joy, peace, and love. This Power comes in my forms but to day i want to blog about love of God

God's love for us fill our heart and soul with joy, peace, happiness, and strength. He give us light to lead us though darkness of life, and truth of God. Truth of all thing can come to us though God. In our darkest hour he is there waiting for us to turn to him so He can give us His Love. The Scriptures teach us draw near unto me and i will draw near unto you. So as we take the first step into the darkness. God will come to our aid.

His love doesn't mean we wont have hard times. That is a fact of life, but he can help us get though our problems, by pouring out his love upon us. Im my life if have had moment where i was in almost total despair i had lost of hope of resuced. But has studied His word and Pray with all my heart and mind. Pleading for help. He come! I have never felt so loved and at peace in my whole life. Though my pray he gave me aid to bear the burden. I know He can do the same for all men, women, and children. God love all of us but to feel requires us to seek him out.

Whats the Book of Mormon

As a missionary of church of Jesus Christ of  latter day saints i testify the word the  the Book of Mormon true scripture and all that it says it is to true. It has been bought forth for us today, for the words of Christ or scriptures tells us all thing must do.

In the introduction page of the Book of Mormon  tell us simply what it is and way it is so important.The Book of Mormon is a volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a record of God’s dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the Americas and contains the fulness of the everlasting gospel. The gospel is the power of God unto salvation through Jesus Christ. So though the Book of Mormon we can make our salvation more sure. Plus in 2 corinthians chapter 13 we learn of law of the witness, verse. 1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three awitnesses shall every word be established. So Book of Mormon fulfills this law and stands as a witness of Christ and his Gospel.

It has been  said, "take away the book of Mormon and the revelations, and where is our religion? we have none." For it is  powerful evidence of the restoration of Christ true church  on the earth by the prophet Joseph smith. It has be said to be the keystone of our religion, this means it holds up the church.

The cool thing you can find out for your self if the book is true Scripture. the process is  taught in last book of the Book of Mormon. In Moroni chapter 10: 3-5. 3Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how amerciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and bponder it in your chearts.
 4And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would aask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not btrue; and if ye shall ask with a csincere heart, with dreal intent, having efaith in Christ, he will fmanifest the gtruth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
 5And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may aknow the btruth of all things.  You simply just have to read, ponder about it's messages, and then ask God in pray if it true. As for myself i know The book of Mormon is true and peace and comfort it brings to heart  has helped me though my life. I have good times and  bad times, and i have hold many mistakes my life but is read the Book of Mormon i find the path to everlasting life and happiness in this life.
