A Quick thought Before I'm Off To Bed

This is just something fast before I close my eyes for the night ...

I dont have much time ... but the Chapters 26-29 in Alma are so strong, I ask you to read them and have a a few different colored pencils or whatever you use to mark with. Alma repeats himself on a few different things a few times. yes he is talking to 3 different sons BUT the scriptures are for us in this day ... these are things we need to hear many many times over!!

I however for my Book of Mormon class can only choose one topic and chose one that really is relating to me in my life right now...

I have put my faith in my Lord, and I have been blessed, and as I continue to do so and become stronger I will continue to feel the blessings and the love of my Heavenly Father flow.

1) What is the reference of the insight?
Alma 36:3, 27
2) What principle or doctrine is taught?
Trust in God
3) What message for improvement is taught?
Verse 3 states that when you put your trust in the Lord he shall help you throughout your life. In 27 it is backed up by experience when Alma tells his son that he has put his faith in the Lord and he has been blessed.
4) How can I apply this principle, doctrine, or message in my life?
I have the past week been changing my life style. For the past week I haven’t missed reading my scriptures or praying each night. I have been slowly adding new things to my list and hoping that I can accomplish these things. They are the simple things that are helping me grow closer to my Heavenly Father and become a better disciple of Christ. My life is centered on doing what the Lord has asked me to do; I am doing my best to keep his commandments. A few months before I came up to school I said a prayer and told the Lord that my trust was in him. I fully gave him my heart and pleaded with him to help me in my time of need. Since then I have been blessed. I put my trust in the Lord and paid my tithing and had the money to be here in this wonderful place. I haven’t stopped there, my faith and trust still lies with him, and I am striving to be a better person I see the blessings all around me. I have put my trust in God and I have been supported in my trials, and my troubles, and my afflictions and I know that as I continue on this path, because I am not perfect and will slip up a bit, I will be delivered, like Alma says.

good night all ... I have to be up in less then 8 hours!!
