"And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them."

Moses 7:18
Sorry for the late Sunday post! Despite our tardiness, we got last weeks scripture challenge down! How did you all do?
D&C 1:37-38 (found here) was a bit more challenging to memorize, but I really loved studying it. I was familiar with the last part where the Lord says if He or His servant (the prophets) say it, it is the same, but wasn't very familiar with the first part. I loved how the Lord tells us to search the commandments and says clearly without any hesitation that ALL the prophesies and promises will be fulfilled. It made me think of the covenants we make with the Lord in our own lives when we are baptized, take the sacrament, etc. and how the Lord will ALWAYS fulfill His end of the bargain. It made me want to be a better follower of Christ and better remember and keep the promises I've made to the Lord to always keep His commandments.
I'm so grateful that the Lord has called prophets and apostles today, just as in ancient times, and that through them He continues to guide and direct us. What a blessing it is!
Have a marvelous Sunday night and a great Monday!!
