A few of my favorite things - Book of Mormon

How lucky are these zoramites?! After going through the trial of poverty, they are compelled to be humble and ready to hear the word of God and return to His fold!!! What a gift!

How do we keep our children from falling into errors? How do we reclaim those that have gone astray as the zoramites had?

Korihor gives us so many arguments the world uses to disprove there is a god! “I have all things as a testimony that these things are true! All things denote there is a god!”

Repentance =no more sorrow! “Repentance isn’t His backup plan in the event we might fail. Repentance is His plan, knowing we will!”

Are you a seeker of happiness? Have you experienced incomprehensible joy? When? I love how the anti Nephi lehis honor their covenants and I love how the nephites welcome them in, give them lands, protect them and love them as their brothers and sisters in Christ.

God fulfills every word of the prophet! Abinadi’s prophecies are fulfilled. “Who can glory too much in the Lord?!” I love Alma’s rejoicing! Sis reeves conference talk in oct 2015 echos this! “Was that all that was required?!”

Is it better to find the truth later in life- to be converted and have our sins washed away? We have conference talks that witness of converts words- oh how I wish I would have known these truths! It would have spared me so much heartache! We are so blessed to know these truths! Now we need to pattern the anti Nephi Lehi’s and be valiant!!

“If there is a god, and thou art god, I will give away all my sins to know thee!”

When has someone been your answer to prayer? Your miracle? When have you been the answer to prayer (the miracle) for someone else?

“Surely this is more than a man!” Our faithfulness and the power of God working in us- make us more!!

Do we have joy when trial or adversity appears at the opportunity to be used by God and to see His miracles! I love Ammon’s confidence in God and his preparation to be used by Him!

Was it worth it? Was it a blessing to Amulek and his household? I love that God mourns with us and strengthens us but He does allow the trial and heartache because He knows the blessings that await!

What are we willing to lay on the altar to the lord? Are we willing to submit to all the will of the Lord?

Why do you study the scriptures? What is your desire? I love this glimpse we have of Zeezrom’s desire change! He truly wants to know!

“You don’t have to wonder about what is true. You do not have to wonder whose you can safely trust!” Pres Nelson. Vs. 27 “and Amulek said Yea, there is a true and living God!”

Amulek stands to teach the people! No fear of man-he has been born of God and changed! Love his testimony of conversion!!

Ammonihah- the people Would Not listen. Amulek (I love Amulek! He is my hero) is told by an angel of God to feed Alma and he will be a blessing to his house. Amulek and his household are converted.

What lack I yet? Steadfast and Immovable! Bind my wandering heart to Thee!

If you could have a conversation tonight with the Savior, what do you think He would say to you? When He comes will He see himself in your countenance?

How have we marked ourselves? Would others know you are a follower of Christ?

They that be with us are more than they that be with them! God’s backing

Every day we choose who we follow. Our lives, our actions bear witness to who we are choosing. In the end only a life focused on Christ leads to joy.

If you could write your next 50 chapters of your life history, what would you wabt them to say? These chapters are all about the power of one person! When used by God!

Can you imagine the damage the prophets son could do pulling people away from God’s teachings! How heartbreaking for Alma and yet his prayers, his faith, his goodness bring the miracle of the angel turning the heart of his son! Love the truths taught in this story! God wants us all! Even a wicked sinner like the prophets son Alma the younger

Alma receives revelation that we use as our church court system today! The most important thing we can teach our children is who Christ is and that He loves them! But if they will not believe and repent then they will be cut off. Which is a kindness from god so they aren’t accountable
