Scripture thought Tuesday...


Well, in coming home from church on Sunday, I came to the realization that I wasn't doing very much to help spread the gospel. We have been admonished to do all we can, and to use the modern media to help in those areas.

I realized that while I haven't been shy about spouting my beliefs from my blog, I haven't really done much by way of religious thought. So, starting today, I'm going to write about a scripture each Tuesday and my thoughts about it. I'm going to be using only scripture from the Book of Mormon, in hopes that it will bring some curious and seeking minds to a desire to read.

Hopefully you'll enjoy!

This weeks scripture is one we heard in Relief Society a couple of Sunday's ago:

Moroni 7: 25 "Wherefore, by the ministering of angels, and by every word which proceeded forth out of the mouth of God, men began to exercise faith in Christ; and thus by faith, they did lay hold upon every good thing; and thus it was until the coming of Christ."

The point was how Angels are currently working among us. Not only are they actual angels that we are unable to see, but they are also our friends, neighbors and family that we can see that help us and love us through difficult and happy times. We have no idea the amount of angels that abound and buoy us up. To quote a line from A Christmas Carol, 'Mankind is our business' and it should always be so. The care and helping of our fellowmen.

Hopefully you'll be able to begin to see the blessing in your life, discover the 'angels' who are around you, and perhaps become an angel to someone in need. I know there are many who help me.

I believe it's true that there are angels all around us ... both the heavenly kind, and the earthly kind.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Wow... really??

so - I didn't realize it has been that long since my last post.  I think I kind of gave up on it, knowing I don't have many follower...
