All the times...

Alma 44-45

I often wonder what it would be like personally living in a war torn country...and just trying to rely on God so much for my protection and for my family's protection.

And then I realize that I do live amongst a war every single day...Satan tries daily to battle me and to beat me and to have victory over me.

I love that the Nephites in these chapters constantly trust that God will deliver them.

And I love their dedication to him after they are delivered...

"...they gave thanks unto the Lord their God; yea, and they did fast much and pray much, and they did worship God with exceedingly great joy".  (45:1).

I've been trying really hard lately not just to go to God for strength when I am weak...but to go to Him for everything...happy times, sad times...

all the times...
