Upon this blog I write the things of my soul.
My soul delighteth in the scriptures and I like
Nephi, pondereth them in my heart.
Perhaps my readers will profit from them like
bee pollen is carried from bloom to bloom.
Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote:
“Every book is a quotation and every
house is a quotation out of all the forests and
and mines and stone quarries; and every
man is a quotation from all his ancestors.”
Nephi wrote a psalm in which he revels in the
goodness of the Lord and His marvelous works
and all the things he’s seen and heard.
He, as I, grieve because of this mortal flesh.
We are circled about with temptations and the sins
which so easily attack us from many directions.
President D. Todd Christopherson warned us
Recently about gambling.
Fortunately, that one has never tempted me.
But others such as delicious food shown on TV, in
ads on YouTube or within emails besiege my life.
Trusting always in God’s support, I fast and He has
Heard my cry and angels have ministered unto me.
I have experienced again the pure love of Christ as
I once had in my epiphany of 1978.
As if upon a high mountain, even higher, where the
stars shone brightly, I saw my eternal companion,
past, present and future.
Oh, how grand and overwhelming was that pure love of
Christ for him. I felt it.
Last Sunday, I felt it again; for me and my ministering
elder.
His love comes often now as I draw closer to my Savior.
So, I as Nephi did, question, “Why should I yield because
Of my flesh’s weakness?”
Awake, my soul!
Rejoice, O my heart.
I will praise the Lord and walk the covenant path
and trust Thee forever.
My life is a book being read on this blog.
Come with me as I share Christ’s love for you.
It is individual and intimate. It is eternal and infinite.
