   Hi-za hi!
The great work of moving the gospel forward has in the past, does now, and will in the future depend upon ordinary members.
~ President Boyd K. Packer, Ensign, Nov. 2004, 87

Alma 31: 32-38
O Lord, wilt thou comfort my soul, and give unto me success, and also my fellow laborers who are with me[...]even all these wilt thou comfort, O Lord. Yea, wilt thou comfort their souls in Christ.
Wilt thou grant unto them that they may have strength, that they may bear their afflictions which shall come upon them because of the iniquities of this people.
O Lord, wilt thou grant unto us that we may have success in bringing them again unto thee in Christ.
Behold, O Lord, their souls are precious, and many of them are our brethren; therefore, give unto us, O Lord, power and wisdom that we may bring these, our brethren, again unto thee.

Now it came to pass that when Alma had said these words, that he clapped his hands upon all them who were with him. And behold, as he clapped his hands upon them, they were filled with the Holy Spirit.
And after that they did separate themselves one from another, taking no thought for themselves what they should eat, or what they should drink, or what they should put on.
And the Lord provided for them that they should hunger not, neither should they thirst; yea, and he also gave them strength, that they should suffer no manner of afflictions, save it were swallowed up in the joy of Christ. Now this was according to the prayer of Alma; and this because he prayed in faith.

Alma 33: 8-9, 11
Yea, thou art merciful unto thy children when they cry unto thee, to be heard of thee and not of men, and thou wilt hear them.
Yea, O God, thou hast been merciful unto me, and heard my cries in the midst of thy congregations.
[...]
And thou didst hear me because of mine afflictions and my sincerity; and it is because of thy Son that thou hast been thus merciful unto me, therefore I will cry unto thee in all mine afflictions, for in thee is my joy; for thou hast turned thy judgments away from me, because of thy Son.

Fact of the day: Most acids and bases rely on the nature of water. Acids have the ability to release a positive hydrogen ion (H+). Bases have the ability to accept a hydrogen ion because they contain a negative hydroxide ion (OH-). So water, which is H20, is neutral. I don't understand why water works this way, but it does, as my dad told me. Because I was (and still am) confuzzled by the acids and bases.

(This fact of the day provided by my biology book. Again. XD )

God be with you. Jesus Christ loves you. Let's help each other and follow Them in faith, living belief in truth. Love and hugs.
