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

Enos

As Enos was approaching the end of his life, I was touched as he wrote -

"...I saw that I must soon go down to my grave, having been wrought upon by the power of God that I must preach and prophesy unto this people, and declare the word according to the truth which is in Christ.  And I have declared it in all my days, and have rejoiced in it above that of the world."  (Book of Mormon | Enos 1:26)

What touched me was the Enos had served the Lord and declared his word "in all my days".  But what impressed me more, he "rejoiced in it above that of the world".

Obviously, he found it more rejoicing to serve the Lord than participate in the fun things of the world.
