Sharing the Gospel Freely

Today I ran across a man that wanted to share truths that he had learned and invited me to look at his website. To my surprise it was advertising his book for just under $20.

Yes, the website had snippets of what I would learn if purchasing the book, but I could see no place that someone could read the book online or get it for free using Kindle. 

Our Heavenly Father wants His truth shouted from the rooftop and not for sale at a price. As far as I know there is only one God that requires payment for knowledge and I wouldn't trust any truth from him.

It reminds me of something we learn in the Temple when Apostles of the Lord ask Adam if he has any tokens.

I am hopefully this man was only led astray about asking for knowledge at a price and not sharing knowledge that was given him by that same source.

Let us always remember that Gospel knowledge is priceless.

The Joy of Daily Repentance

  As we talked today about the Joy of Daily Repentance today at Relief Society, it reminded me of Psalm 19:12-13 12 Who can understand his errors? Cleanse Thou me from secret faults. 13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous acts; let them not have dominion over me; then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgressions.  This Psalm of David talks about "secret faults" and "presumptuous acts".  I believe he was talking about the faults we are not seeing in ourselves and those acts that we fail to recognize as inappropriate. I remember in one of my child development classes from BYU stating that parents make about 12 statements a day that have a negative impact on their children without even being aware. Words can hurt and we don't even realize it. I love the idea of starting each day by asking our Heavenly Father. "Have I hurt any of your children unaware?" "How can I repent from that?" If we wait until the end o...

Esther's Shining Example

Image
As we conclude our study of Queen Esther I reflect on my own life and what it is like to be married to a man that does his best to honor me and live a life that is good without the Light of Christ leading him. Queen Esther not only saved her people but I believe she saved her husband by her example of humility and mercy. I also think of the hymn by Phillip P, Bliss "Let the Lower Lights be Burning". Just recently I was so focused on living my life in accordance to the first and greatest commandment that I lost sight of the second commandment. I started judging the love of my life by how he wasn't living the first that I was breaking the second commandment. I was no longer being a beaming light of love and mercy that I left my husband in total darkness. "DARK THE NIGHT OF SIN HAS SETTLED. LOUD THE ANGRY BILLOWS ROAR; EAGER EYES ARE WATCHING, LONGING, FOR THE LIGHTS ALONG THE SHORE." My hope is that I will always remember the example that Our Savior gave us and ho...
