Happy Thoughts

JACOB, ENOS, JAROM, OMNI, WORDS OF MORMON 10/22: Jacob 1:  Nephi dies :-(, Jacob is a good missionary, After Nephi's death, pride comes in to the people of Nephi's heart. Jacob 2:  Jacob: "Everyones sinning and proud, and I am sad for you all." God is so powerful, and we are nothing 19  And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to  a do  good— to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted. 10/27: J acob 3: REPENT!!   6 And now, this commandment they observe to keep; wherefore, because of this observance, in keeping this commandment, the Lord God will not destroy them, but will be a merciful unto them; and one day they shall b become a blessed people. shake yourselves that ye may b awake from the slumber of death; and loose yourselves from the pains of c hell that ye may not become d angels t

2 NEPHI 9/28: Chapter 1: 588-570 BC -- Lehi prophesizes of Columbus discovering America; those living in America will be alone forever until they stop believing (-> Columbus); Lehi begs his sons to keep the commandments "23 Awake, my sons; put on the armor of arighteousness. Shake off the bchains with which ye are bound, and come forth out of obscurity, and arise from the dust." Chapter 2: there's no purpose to anything unless there is opposition "25 Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy." 9/29: Chapter 3:  Joseph Smith is prophesized of "3 And out of weakness he shall be made strong" Chapter 4:  Lehi gives his last words & dies. I think this might be my new favorite chapter. From 17 forward, Nephi is finally relatable! Basically, he says, I'm flesh and thus a mess, but why should I use that as an excuse? I can turn to God and he will help me. I really needed this chapter tonight. 17 Neverthele
