July 6th Is ALMOST Here!!!!!
Yes, I'm a bit behind (only to mid-Mosiah), but I'm pluggin along - 7/6 is coming fast though. I love this part of the Book of Mormon (Mosiah), where Abinadi reminds us why we come to this world like we do - carnal, sensual and devilish; and how the biggest challenge is to realize that, then as the book of Revelations teach us, overcome! Alma got the message from his dad (Alma), and it was taught many times that the carnal man (natural) is an enemy to God and must change. I also love Paul's epistle to the Galatians (ch 5) where he describes the dual nature of our being, and encourages us to choose allegiance to the spiritual nature within us. If we can only remember what the Prophets tell us, and unstop our ears, hearken to their words, and soften our hearts we will be so at peace with our lives. Remember, O Remember to read your scriptures - daily! And PRAY! I love you all! Thanks, for the encouragement, Jenni!

Abinadi is Kaleb's favorite story in the Book of Mormon. Ever since he was little. His is an amazing story, what an amazing man, really! It is good to be reminded of all of these good people who stood up for what they believed in even if it would cause them a painful death. There are people around us today that give up too easily, because it seems too hard. It's hard to watch. I know it's important to "remember" these things to not fall into the "it's too hard" trap. Because I think that trap would be even harder to live with.
