Seek Ye the Kingdom of God

Where do your priorities lie, and what is most important to you?

What is the Book of Mormon?

Many people have asked this question. Have you answered them?

Member Missionary Work

We shouldn't be afraid to share what we know.

We Are As One

We must bring all unto Christ, and to do that, we must be as one. Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

The Reason Behind Conversion

Just like rock climbing alone can be dangerous, living your life without the help of the Savior can have disastrous consequences.

Learning from Children

It is important to take many lessons from these children. We need to remember that the simple humility that they posses can teach the most important of lessons.

Faith as a Grain of Mustard Seed

If we have faith, we can overcome all challenges in life, and find the help that we truely need.

Give Thanks Daily

Each day when we look at what we are grateful for and give thanks to God and others, we develop happiness.

Fear Not What Man Can Do

How can you overcome the troubles of life, and fears we all have? By having an all powerful God on your side.

Member Missionary Work

How can you be a member missionary with little effort? Just show love. Serving our friends doesn't need to be imposing or bold, it only needs to be filled with love.

The Family is of God

Parents need to work together in faith to be able to raise their children to reach their full potential.

Raised by God

The power God raised Christ with, is the exact same power he raises us with, if we allow it.

Daily Change

An attitude of 'Choosing the Right' can make significant change in our daily lives and peace.

God Lifts Us Up

God wants us to think more positively in our lives, and enjoy better peace and happiness.

Open the Door

We're never closed off to Christ on his end of the door, but on ours. Opening the door to the Savior brings peace and joy like no other.

God Raises us by Miracles


Here's a great scripture I found in the Bible. 
1 Corinthians 6:14 - "And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power." 

I think this is remarkable, and there are two parts to this scripture, the first addressing the raising up of the Lord, the second of us. 

God raised Christ in many different ways. He raised him in righteousness, literally teaching him and instructing him. He grew in strength, maturity and spirituality, all to become our example. He was raised in an environment of spirit, because the role of the Savior is completely key in eternal life for all living people. 

He knew he was a man, and physically surrounded by negative influence which could make him stumble like we all do, but because of this, God sent angels and teachers to Him from birth so that he would be able to withstand any influence of evil, which he did many many times. 

Because of the Father's constant watchful care of the Savior, his Son, he became the Messiah who saved us all. 

He cares about his all of his children. He raises us up through inspiration, scriptures, prophets, angels (including those mortals around us), action of service and so forth. All of these are ways for us to grow and learn and develop, and he nurtures and nourishes us all. 

If you have children, you could understand better the scope of Heavenly Fathers love for us. If you don't have children, try imagine what it would be like to have a child you love unconditionally, and the desires and wishes you would have for that child. It's something that I can only imagine, and for me it seems like a rewarding prospect spiritually for personal development. 

I think that the powers by which God works by, as stated in this scripture, are miracles. He provided a Savior for us all that we can be saved, and he provides that we can all return to live with him in peace and happiness which lasts forever. There were many miracles in the life of
Jesus, and there are many miracles in our life too. We ought to seek these out, and thank God for the many miracles he provides for us daily. 


Watch this video comparing the role of this father 
on earth to that of our Heavenly Father. He believes
his children teach him lessons which he
can relate to his personal relationship with God.
