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

After having had a "high mountain experience", been transfigured by the Holy Ghost, and seeing the Savior face to face, Moses writes -

"And the presence of God withdrew from Moses, that his glory was not upon Moses; and Moses was left unto himself.  And as he was left unto himself, he fell unto the earth."  (Pearl of Great Price | Moses 1:9)

In my mind, "fell unto the earth" could have more than one meaning,  It could suggest that he "came down to earth".  This is meaningful to me.  I have to confess being on a spiritual high as I have worked hard a stake conference talk and when it is all over, just feeling like normal and back to earth where I might have expected the spiritual high to remain.
