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

Mosiah 23

 I just wanted to note that Alma and his people lived in Helam in righteousness for some 24 years.  Little is mentioned about that.  And after 24 years - 

"Nevertheless the Lord seeth fit to chasten his people; yea, he trieth their patience and their faith.

22 Nevertheless—whosoever putteth his trust in him the same shall be lifted up at the last day. Yea, and thus it was with this people."  (Mosiah 23:21–22)

Reminds me of - 

"...we will prove them herewith, to see if they will do all things whatsoever the Lord their God shall command them..."  (Abraham 3:25)
