Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

1 Samuel 17

As David witnessed the fear of the army of Israel of the giant Goliath, he asked -

"...Is there not a cause?" (Old Testament | 1 Samuel 17:29)

How often do we not open our mouths to bear testimony of the truth because of the fear of men. Is there not a cause? David had great faith in the Lord. He knew of the promise -

"...for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up." (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 84:88)

The real question is - is there not a cause?
