Spiritual Enlightenment   

BOOK OF MORMON CORNER -  Today's Reading - Jacob 1:1-19 

Question - Why does it seem societies often fall as a whole? Why is it never just a few people? 

My Thoughts -  It's interesting to me to see which group of people Jacob is teaching about the dangers of pride, love of money and immorality. He's IN the temple. So it's covenant people! In Mosiah 29:22 it says "For behold, he has his friends in iniquity, and he keepeth his guards about him". I used to counsel the Young Women about this when I was a Young Woman's leader, (although it's applicable to any age) . . .  to teach them to pick their friends wisely. Because friends can make things eventually seem acceptable. Or they can inspire you to reach higher. I agree the influence of one righteous person, who stands for what is right . . .  no matter what, is huge! Also personally speaking, no one outside of church has ever led me away from God, but I have had friends in church that have influenced my life in not so great ways. I think when we put Jesus Christ at the centre of our lives and trust Him, everything makes more sense. But once we place anything else in central position we are on shaky ground. 

Tomorrow's Reading (Day 76  - Jacob 2:1-16 

Question - What have you learnt about Heavenly Father or Jesus Christ from the reading today? Why do you think Jacob struggles so much in these verses? 

  

In The English Kitchen today  . . . .  Oat, Apple and Sunflower Seed Muffins.  Delicious! 

Have a great Friday.  I am off to a funeral this morning, and then President Monson's funeral is tonight.  On the bright side, my friend Tina is back from Oz.  I have missed her.  Don't forget along the way of your day  . . . (and sometimes I need to remind myself of this truth also!)
