Alma 7
Alma's final comments to the people of Gideon -
"...I would that ye should be humble, and be submissive and gentle; easy to be entreated; full of patience and long-suffering; being temperate in all things; being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times; asking for whatsoever things ye stand in need, both spiritual and temporal; always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive.
24 And see that ye have faith, hope, and charity, and then ye will always abound in good works." (Book of Mormon | Alma 7:23 - 24)
I noted to things in this counsel. First being that we should "always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive". I wonder how often our prayers fail in this manner.
I also noted that if we have faith, hope and charity or the love of Christ, the result will be that we will always about in good works. Or in my mind, we will be taking upon us the name of Christ.
