What are righteous desires we can and should have today?
The people in Alma's day had a desire to be called the people of God and they had faith in God and repented of their sins. (Mosiah 25:22-24).
Unrighteous people of the scriptures are often described as having hard hearts. What would make someone have a hard heart and how can we make sure we don't have one? How can we make sure we are always teachable and willing to learn from our leaders and the Spirit?
I think it's important to be humble and to always be open to learning new things from everyone. Always be learning and reading new things is a good way to be teachable because you know by doing this that there is more truth out there than one person could ever know. As we teach each other and all learn different things that's what makes the world keep going and bringing us closer to our Father in Heaven.
Mosiah 26:13, "he went and inquired of the Lord what he should do concerning this matter,"
As we go about our days and throughout our life it's important to remember that God knows all and to inquire of Him about all things. When we do this we can develop a stronger relationship with him and learn His will for us. This essentially makes our lives easier and helps us to know what we must do as well as invites the spirit to guide us and direct us throughout our lives and help us make daily decisions.
26:30 "Yea, and as often as my people repent will i forgive them their trespasses against me."
What more can one want from Heavenly Father? He is so willing to help us improve and to forgive us as we sin and go through trials in this life. It's interesting that so many people think that God is mean and is just out to get us and make us have a miserable life. When in reality He is the one that has given us so many resources in order to learn, grow, and return to live with Him again. He even sent a Savior for us so that we wouldn't be lost but that we could have a sure way back to Him.
Blessing- I was able to play basketball last night and have tons of fun. I'm thankful for the things I've been able to do and get involved in here.
