And Thus It Is

Today's scripture:

"And now I make an end of speaking concerning the things which I saw while I was carried away in the Spirit; and if all the things which I saw are not written, the things which I have written are true. And thus it is. Amen."

Be Careful How You Are Talking To Yourself Because ...

The Only Disability In Life

Today's scripture:

"Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city."

                    -- Revelation 22:14

From reading in Revelation 22 and 1 Nephi 12

I'm thinking it's not coincidental that my varied reading has taken me to the tree of life several times recently, and now from the Apostle John.  The tree of life is the love of God, and a most beautiful thing.  Seems so worth holding on to the iron rod by reading His scriptures and keeping His commandments in order to have this right.

Pride

Today's scripture:

"And it came to pass that I saw and bear record, that the great and   spacious building was the pride of the world; and it fell, and the fall   thereof was exceedingly great. And the angel of the Lord spake unto   me again, saying: Thus shall be the destruction of all nations,   kindreds, tongues, and people, that shall fight against the twelve                                   apostles of the Lamb."
