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

JS - Matthew

Of the last days, the Savior counseled -

"Behold, I speak these things unto you for the elect’s sake; and you also shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars; see that ye be not troubled, for all I have told you must come to pass; but the end is not yet."  (Joseph Smith—Matthew 1:23)

Thus not only are the elect to "see that ye be not troubled", but also -

"Blessed is that servant whom his lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing..."  (Joseph Smith—Matthew 1:50)

So in the last days, be about serving others and don't be troubled by the events of the day.
