Joy!


For about a month now I knew that I needed to get back on here and do or say something positive.  But what that something was I had no clue.  I recently found it reading through scriptures in the Book of Mormon.  Alma 26 has seriously become my most favorite chapter in all the Book of Mormon.  Verses 8-12 caught my attention the most.  While I may not have something amazing to say, Ammon certainly did!  He was so excited about the missionary work that was happening with the Lamanites that Aaron was telling him to calm down.  He was worried that Ammons joy was turning into boasting.  Ammon said to him, "I do not boast in my own strenth, nor in my own wisdom; but behold my joy is full, yea my heart is brim with joy, and I will rejoice in my God." 

I found it difficult to read that chapter and not get excited myself!  So that is my something positive!
