Showing Your Love For Others.

Hey everyone I've been thinking about the word love. Because I really like the word and what it means to me. When you love someone you care about the all lot and you would do anything for them and you would do anything to protect them. Naruto is a perfect example I say he tries everyting that he can for the people that he trully loves for his family and for his friends. Jesus Christ was the same way with everyone he loved and adored. They both never gave up on anyone that they loved or cared for. They would do anything for everyone. Christ sacrifeced him self for the purpose of his fathers plan and he created the atonement. We can show our love for our Savior by kepping the comandments and by following all of what he has to say. When we do what is right the Savior shows his love by giving us blessings of what we need. He also show his love by:

16 ¶For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3: 16-17)

Scriptures are a very Important tool

 For the past couple of weeks I've been thinking about the scriptures and how they can bless our lives. When I think of the scriptures, I think of Jesus Christ and His teachings that He has brought to us. There are a lot of different types of scriptures, some of them are: the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, Pearl of Great Price, and the Bible. D. Todd Christoffersen said in General Conference: "The central purpose of all scripture is to fill our souls with faith in God the Father and in His Son, Jesus Christ." The scriptures enlarge our memory by helping us to remember the Lord and our relationship to Him and the Father. The scriptures also enlarge our memory by helping us not forget what we and earlier generations have learned. God uses the scripture to unmask erroneous thinking, false traditions, and sin with its devastating effects. The scriptures are the touchstone for measuring correctness and truth, and they make clear that real happiness lies not in denying the justice of God or trying to circumvent the consequences of sin but in repentance and forgiveness through the atoning grace of the Son of God. Scripture tutors us in principles and moral values essential to maintaining civil society, including integrity, responsibility, selflessness, fidelity, and charity. The word of God, as Alma said, is like a seed planted in our hearts thats produces faith as it begins to grow within us. Scriptural accounts of the faith of others serve to strengthen our own. Scriptures are revelation, and they will bring added revelation.

The Priesthood is the Power of God

The priesthood is one of the things I've been thinking about a lot because it has been a great blessing in my life and my family's life. The priesthood is a great blessing in your lives and it will help you through all of your trials that you may go through. The priesthood is the authority which allows us to act in God's name. It is the same priesthood that was on the earth when Jesus Christ was doing His ministry. He used it to establish His church and He gave it to his apostles. To have the priesthood in your life, you need to be worthy to have it and to use it. When Christ and his apostles were killed,  the priesthood was taken from the earth and the power of God was no longer on the earth because God's childern were not worthy to have the priesthood on the earth. Thomas S. Monson stated in the April General Conference, "The rights of the priesthood are inseparably connected with the powers of heaven...the powers of heaven cannot be controled nor handled only upon the principles of rightouesness. That they may be confferd upon us, it is ture; but when we undertake to cover our sins, or to gratify our pride, our vain ambition, or to exercise control dominion or compulsion upon the souls of the childern of men, in any degree of unrightouesness, behold, the heavens withdraw themselves; the sprit of the lord is grived; and when it is withdrawn, Amen to the priesthood or the authority of that man." (Doctrine and Covenants 121: 36-37)

This is a really cool movie about the power of the priesthood the power that we act in God's name.
