"Don't Rock the boat."
As usual i have a sweet story to talk about that came from my institute class. :) Sadly, Brother Barlow wasn't there today... but our substitute was Brother Morgan. And he did teach a great lesson. We talked about Nephi building the boat which, i know, sounds like a pretty mediocre lesson. But it was amazing! :) We spent the class discussing how Nephi's Boat, the brother of jared's(mohonrimorianchomer;]) barges, and noah's ark are in all reality the same story!
We discussed questions like what was the purpose of the boats, who could be on the boat, and how were the boats built? After we read scriptures that answered these questions, Brother Morgan said... now, look at those questions/answers again, but instead of the work boat, barge, or ark, put in the words "the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.". And the answers worked PERFECTLY.
The purpose of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is to carry the people to the 'promised land' which is translated to the celestial Kingdom.
People who are willing to be righteous and keep covenants. and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is built by God, and run by God. :) I love connections!!! :)
And then we began to talk about how people jump the boat. But we are always willing to through them a life buoy. :) And then we came across this fill in the blank.. I will stay on the boat because.... what would you fill it in with?
I will stay on the boat because I know the Church is True and i want to return to my father in heaven. :)
So Again i have a quote from hoop dreams "My next year, starts now."-William Gates.
How amazing is that statement. I am going to live by this quote. My tomorrow, next month, next year, next century, starts now. That way i will never regret not doing something! :) I will be more productive, and will accomplish so much more! :)
