I'm not entirely sure what to write. Half because I'm still reeling, and half because I'm still asleep.
I'm now in the International Airport in Las Vegas, heading back home after a trip which put my 5-year anniversary trip to absolute shame. I'm just shaking my head in disbelief.
During the trip, we went and saw the show Ka by Ci...

Some quotes from the talk I found quite inspiring:

In this day of rampant immorality and addictive pornography, parents have a sacred responsibility to teach their children the importance of God in their lives. Those evils, so highly destructive of divine potential, are to be strictly shunned by children of God.

Words Of Mormon

Today during gospel doctrine, our teacher brought up a point I'm not entirely sure I knew or not.
When Nephi states that he is keeping the record for a "wise purpose" in God, yet Nephi openly states he doesn't know what that purpose is, I've always assumed that purpose is the coming forth of the Book of Mormon.
And I was right...&nb...

I've often wondered why Nephi included the portions of scripture containing the writings of Isaiah.

Only one verse out of this chapter gave me any inspiration at all...
