So yesterday I read my scriptures but I didn't get a chance to write. So I will just do both days inspiration today.
So yesterday I read chapters 8 and 9 it talks about keeping the commandments and "the Lord will be merciful unto all those who call on his name." and in vs 20 I love this... "all things made known unto them according to their desires, and their faith, and prayer, of that which has been, and which is, ans which is to come." So as I have righteous desires the Lord will bless me for the things I do and the effort I put into doing I need to do my part though. Because of the love of the Lord we can return to live with God again if we have the desire and act on it.The Plan of Salvation is a very comforting thing to have a testimony about. Knowing that there is life after this one and at that this isn't the end, that we aren't creating bonds and friendships without anything to look forward to is so sad. I think of a lot of people i met on my mission and how sad it was when they didn't believe in a life after this one, they didn't know about eternal families (some didn't even want to be with there families forever). It makes me so sad because I love my family so much and I am so thankful for the things I go through with them and the things I learn from each of them.
For instance mom called me yesterday crying because it is state basketball and Kayl didn't get to go because of the coach and other things but he is suppose to learn something from this awful situation.

Blessing: Katelynn is my best friend, she understands me and God's blessings.

Heber J. Grant said "I have heard men and women say that they were going to let their sons and daughters grow to maturity before they sought to teach them the principles of the gospel, that they were not going to cram the gospel down them in their childhood, before they were able to comprehend it. When I hear men and women say this, I think they are lacking faith in the principles of the gospel and do not comprehend it as they should. The Lord has said it is our duty to teach our children in their youth, and I prefer to take His word for it rather than the words of those who are not obeying His commandments.. I may know that the gospel is true, and so may my wife; but I want to tell you that your children will not know that the gospel is true, unless they study it and gain a testimony for themselves. Parents are deceiving themselves in imagining that their children will be born with a knowledge of the gospel." (Richard O. Cowan, The Church in the Twentieth Century, p. 319)*...

Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We all do a lot of studying, but most of us don't do much meditation. We don't take time to think. I'd like to suggest that next fast day . . . everybody in this hall set aside an hour or two. Sit by yourself. Go in the bedroom and lock the door. Go out in the yard under a tree. Go in your study if you have one and shut the door, and think about yourself and your worthiness. Read from this great book [Book of Mormon]...There's a great word that's used, 'ponder.' "'Ponder.' What do we mean by 'ponder'? Well, I think it simply means kind of quietly thinking things through. Ponder what you have read. Ponder your life. Are you worthy, are you living the commandments...?" (Church News, 01/06/96) -Christ commanded them to; 1. " ponder upon the things which I have said, 2. ask the Father, in my name, that ye many understand, 3. prepare your minds for the morrow ," (3 Nephi 17:3) -The thing...
