Mosiah 4:24 I give not because I have not, but if I had I would give
"President Harold B. Lee relied on the above scriptures on the desire to give when he defined another example of rewards for righteous desires :
'(Women) who have been denied the blessings of wifehood or motherhood in this life--who say in their heart, if I could have done, I would have done, or I would give if I had, but I cannot, for I have not--the Lord will bless you as though you had done, and the world to come will compensate for those who desire in their hearts the righteous blessings that they were not able to have because of no fault of their own.' (Ye Are the Light of the World (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1974), p. 292.)" (Pure in Heart, p. 61)*
-I love this quote, it is so applicable to me and I'm sure to so many others out there who are or have gone through hard times when we think we could have done better or if we only would have done better.
Mosiah 4:26; How do we continue to live righteous "for the sake of retaining a remission of your sins from day to day,"?
- We should seek for forgiveness of our sins every day for we make mistakes daily, they could be small or large and some of them we probably don't even think a whole lot about.
This is something I have a hard time with;
"it is not requisite that a man should run faster than he has strength...be diligent" (Mosiah 4:27)
-Sometimes this is hard because we usually have so much to get done and we often feel we don't have enough time in a day to accomplish it all so we don't focus on the smaller things in life that need more attention and we wear ourselves out.
Blessing: I have the Best Best Friend a girl could ask for; yes God loves me and I am so blessed.
