My Scriptural Insights: February 2010
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 9 February 2010. An Attitude of Gratitude. One of the greatest chapters exemplifying the proper attitude of gratitude is, in my opinion, Alma chapter 26. I cannot read this chapter without feeling the desire to rejoice myself, with Ammon and his brethren, and find my self wanting, as it were, to shout praises to God from the housetops. The converted Lamanites were gathered into the garners of the Lord of the Harvest and kept safe. Ammon and his brethren had the courage to come up out of the Land...

My Scriptural Insights: January 2009
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, 22 January 2009. God's Work Will Go Forth. In these turbulent times, it is a breath of fresh air to me to come across verses in the scriptures that give me solace, comfort and the courage to move forward despite the challenges all around and ahead. Such are the following verses from D&C section 3:. And the designs, and the purposes of God cannot be frustrated, neither can they come to naught. 2 For God doth not walk in crooked paths, neither doth he turn. Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

My Scriptural Insights: And They Were Also Taught From On High
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2010/12/and-they-were-also-taught-from-on-high.html
Sunday, 12 December 2010. And They Were Also Taught From On High. I was reading in the book of Ether this morning and once again read chapter 6:17. And they were taught to walk humbly before the Lord; and they were also taught. I've read that verse dozens of time and never really taken the time to think about it's meaning. What really struck me was the last part, "and the were taught from on high.". What does this mean? He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

My Scriptural Insights: Everlasting Grace
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2010/10/everlasting-grace.html
Sunday, 3 October 2010. And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them." ( The Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ. The Guide for the Scriptures gives a wonderful definition of the scriptural meaning of grace. It is. I have a firm testimony ...

My Scriptural Insights: August 2010
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, 29 August 2010. 5 Loaves and 2 Fishses. In John 6:1-13 we read the story of Christ feeding the five thousand with five loaves of barley bread and two fishes. I've heard and read this story many times in the past, but today it struck me differently than before. How does this apply to you and me? Well may we ask ourselves, "but what can I do?

My Scriptural Insights: Stand Fast
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2009/04/stand-fast.html
Monday, 27 April 2009. Helaman's "sons," as described in Alma chapter's 56 and 58, have always been an inspiration to me. Alma 58:40 is one of my favorite verses. This verse causes me to ponder on several levels. What does it mean to "stand fast"? To me it means to be firmly rooted in Christ. It is only through him that we can truly be free. How do we stay rooted? We stay rooted by remembering God from day to day and strictly keeping His commandments. 26 May 2009 at 16:11. Subscribe to: Post Comments (At...

My Scriptural Insights: December 2008
http://scriptjourn.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 December 2008. Doctrine and Covenants Section 1 - Part 1. This week's Sunday School lesson is on Doctrine and Covenants (D&C) section1. The way I study is to go verse by verse and break things down. 1 Hearken, O ye people of my church, saith the voice of him who dwells on high, and whose eyes are upon all men; yea, verily I say: Hearken ye people from afar; and ye that are upon the islands of the sea, listen together. No hiding for the rebellious in the Lord's plan. They may have their "jo...
