His Seed

Abinadi's words to King Noah and his priests are powerful. He quoted Isaiah and it suck out to me.

Mosiah 14:10 says "...when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his land."

Am I part of His seed?

Abinadi explains in the next chapter who are his seed.

11  Behold I say unto you, that whosoever has heard the words of the prophets, yea, all the holy prophets who have prophesied concerning the coming of the Lord—I say unto you, that all those who have hearkened unto their words, and believed that the Lord would redeem his people, and have looked forward to that day for a remission of their sins, I say unto you, that these are his seed, or they are the heirs of the kingdom of God.
12  For these are they whose sins he has borne; these are they for whom he has died, to redeem them from their transgressions.
14  And these are they who have published peace, who have brought good tidings of good, who have published salvation; and said unto Zion: Thy God reigneth!

I love reading the Book of Mormon. It truly testifies of Christ. 

I also loved this scripture in my reading today:

Mosiah 15:
8  And thus God breaketh the bands of death, having gained the victory over death; giving the Son power to make intercession for the children of men—
9  Having ascended into heaven, having the bowels of mercy; being filled with compassion towards the children of men; standing betwixt them and justice; having broken the bands of death, taken upon himself their iniquity and their transgressions, having redeemed them, and satisfied the demands of justice.

Light Bulb Moment

I am horrible with expressing my feelings. When it comes to telling people what I am thinking, half of the time I fail. There are many things that I know inside my brain. I know them to be true and I believe in them but when it comes to explaining why or how...I get all flustered and my brain shuts down. I have been asked a question many times. I've tried to answer it and I feel like I did a decent job, but this morning I found an example for the asnwer that made total sense to me. I'm still getting asked by my children so I'm excited that I have a great way to answer it now. The question is, "Why don't your forgive me and forget what I did? Why do I have to be punished?" I have always answered, "you have made this choice. This was your action. I forgive you but that doesn't mean that you are free from the consequence. My forgiveness has nothing to do with the consequences of your actions." While I was reading in Moses 6, it explained tha...

Lectures on Faith

"When men begin to live by faith they begin to draw near to God; and when faith is perfected, they are like him; and because he is saved, they are saved also; for they will be in the same situation he is in, because they have come to him; and when he appears they shall be like him, for they will see him as he is."

Where Have I Been?

I haven't written anything on here for so long. I read my last post and realized how horribly written it was so I changed it a little. It is at the end of another Sunday. I wish I could say that Sundays were my favorite day of the week but I can't. In fact they are probably the hardest days to get through. Maybe it's because I never go to bed early on Saturday nights and I wake up tired and have to rush to get to church. Maybe it's because I have to wrestle with 3 children during Sacrament meeting and I never get a thing out of any of the talks.  I do have to say that Sunday evening walks are my favorite. It is the best time of the day when the sun is going down and the weather is cooling. I hate being inside during that time, unless the weather is horrible. We talk about anything and I always end up holding flowers that all kids have picked for me. The kids get the last of their energy out and then it's bed time! It is amazing how children can be so incredibly ...
