Those who love righteousness possess the Spirit of God, those who delight to do good, can remember good.

They can remember every good principle and every good act;

When they read the Scriptures, the sayings of the Prophets and Apostles will be as near their hearts as lies are to the hearts of the wicked.

By this you may know whether you are Saints or not.

Can you remember good?

If you forget good and remember evil, you may lay it down as a positive fact that you are on the highway to destruction.

If you love the truth you can remember it.

Happiness doesn’t come in pills or in anything you swallow, or own. Other people can’t make you happy. Your happiness isn’t a hostage that others hold for ransom. It doesn’t come from outside you.

Happiness is the big brother of Gratitude and Contentment. When you hang out with the younger siblings routinely, he eventually shows up.

Happiness is a choice you make when you focus on what is good in your life and appreciate it, when you accept that the existence of people and situations you don’t like doesn’t oblige you to be miserable.

Appreciate what you have because it can all be gone in an instant. Express gratitude for your life because tomorrow might never come. Happiness turns up wherever contentment and gratitude reside.

Joe's mission was...

1. Money digger con.
2. Making up fake "scripture"
3. "Marrying" other men's wives when the men were on "missions"
4. "Marrying" young girls.
5. Several other cons... including..
6. Making up more fake "scripture."
7. "Marrying" more women, many of whom were other men's wives.

A hymn for contemplation...

"Thus the scriptures of both hemispheres and in all ages of ante-meridian time bore solemn testimony to the certainty of Messiah’s advent; thus the holy prophets of old voiced the word of revelation predicting the coming of the world’s King and Lord, through whom alone is salvation provided, and redemption from death made sure. It is a characteristic of prophets sent of God that they possess and proclaim a personal assurance of the Christ, “for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Not a word of inspired prophecy relating to the great event has been found void. The literal fulfilment of the predictions is ample attestation of their origin in divine revelation, and proof conclusive of the divinity of Him whose coming was so abundantly foretold."

Our Heavenly Father has promised that his eye is on the sparrow—so too does he watch over and care about us because of the love he has for us. We are reminded of the spiritual power that comes from consistently doing the small and simple things that will strengthen our spirits. :)
A million babies starve to death in their first two years through no fault of their own, and their mothers desperate prayers are not answered. No matter how we slice that, love just doesn't come through any more than God comes through those desperate prayers of mothers who have to watch their children starve. And God does nothing. Your ideology is wonderful, reality shows ideology is just words. God needs to become more of a God of action.

Or, we have this study of 25,000 dying daily....daily of starvation worldwide. So Jesus came and fed 5,000 in his day then left and refuses to return now that more than 5 times that daily die? That's over 9,000,000 annually dying of starvation. God may have so loved the world he gave his only begotten son, but it would be better for the masses if he so loved the world he would give food. Dontchta think? And again, it isn't because of their wickedness and them being punished. Jesus's church has over $115,000,000,000 and literally does nothing to alleviate world hunger suffering. Haven't you ever asked why that is? They have the power to make approx 6 billion QUARTERLY and use less than .01% to help people? That isn't love ...
