Hi. It's my day off.
John 20: 14-16, 19-21
And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
[...]
Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

Alma 41: 14
Therefore, my son, see that you are merciful unto your brethren; deal justly, judge righteously, and do good continually; and if ye do all these things then shall ye receive your reward; yea, ye shall have mercy restored unto you again; ye shall have justice restored unto you again; ye shall have a righteous judgment restored unto you again; and ye shall have good rewarded unto you again.

Alma 43: 9, 49-50
And now the design of the Nephites was to support their lands, and their houses, and their wives, and their children, that they might preserve them from the hands of their enemies; and also that they might preserve their rights and their privileges, yea, and also their liberty, that they might worship God according to their desires.
[...]
And it came to pass that they turned upon the Lamanites, and they cried with one voice unto the Lord their God, for their liberty and their freedom from bondage.
And they began to stand against the Lamanites with power; and in that selfsame hour that they cried unto the Lord for their freedom, the Lamanites began to flee before them; and they fled even to the waters of Sidon.

Alma 46: 12-13, 15, 18, 20
And it came to pass that he rent his coat; and he took a piece thereof, and wrote upon it—In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children—and he fastened it upon the end of a pole.
And he fastened on his head-plate, and his breastplate, and his shields, and girded on his armor about his loins; and he took the pole, which had on the end thereof his rent coat, (and he called it the title of liberty) and he bowed himself to the earth, and he prayed mightily unto his God for the blessings of liberty to rest upon his brethren, so long as there should a band of Christians remain to possess the land—
[...]
And those who did belong to the church were faithful; yea, all those who were true believers in Christ took upon them, gladly, the name of Christ, or Christians as they were called, because of their belief in Christ who should come.
[...]
And he said: Surely God shall not suffer that we, who are despised because we take upon us the name of Christ, shall be trodden down and destroyed, until we bring it upon us by our own transgressions.
[...]
Behold, whosoever will maintain this title upon the land, let them come forth in the strength of the Lord, and enter into a covenant that they will maintain their rights, and their religion, that the Lord God may bless them.

Beautiful truths. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love you. May you see Their love and blessings for you.

Equus: Thanks for your comments, LadyLenaJade and Miaka and Taka. Don't worry if you haven't visited--I haven't much, either. ^^; I'll try to visit this week. Well, I finally got Kyo-clone's and Kakashi #8's map up. ^-^ Actually, it's the simple version. They had geographical landmark and all sorts of stuff that I might fill in later.



Xihuitl: Kurama #3 finally admitted that Kyo-clone and Kakashi #8 were going south, through that little valley. We know that there's a small mountain range past it, but that's all.

Equus: Well, let's follow them today.

Xihuitl: Equus, I'm not very good at creeping and hiding.

Equus: Well, maybe Emeraulde and I could go.

Emeraulde: (enters the room) Go where?

Equus: There. (points at the map) That's where Kyo-clone and Kakashi #8 have been going lately.

Emeraulde: (examines map) What is it?

Xihuitl: It's a map, honey. See, there's the farm house, and the barn, and Kurama #3's garden. And down here in the south is a valley. Kyo-clone and Kakashi #8 have been going that way.

Emeraulde: What? (gallops out of room)

Equus: Um, maybe we should follow him?

Fact of the day: Arabic is written right to left, but the letters are still written left to right. Wierd, huh?

Take care, and pocket hugs and glomps. ^_^ Adieu.
