Talking with God

Talking with God

Posted on 5:15 PM by Unknown | No comments

Throughout my life there is something that has greatly impacted me—my daily conversations with God. This may sound interesting or even crazy to some, prompting the question: "How can you talk to someone who isn't there?" At first it does seem like that, but I have found that God is there and he does answer. When I can't hear Him, it is generally because I am not putting...

  So sitting in a class, the teacher asked us to find something red in the classroom and then close our eyes.  We did so, and while our eyes were closed, she asked us to think of something yellow in the classroom...  Most of us couldn't think of anything yellow... as we opened our eyes, she explained how when we become so focused on the red, we couldn't...

This week's post is from Alexis Wood: And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. And one of them,...

Thousands of searches and hundreds of applications went by, yielding a few interviews which ultimately amounted to nothing. Discouraged, our family prayed for continued faith and a miracle. But as time continued to go by I found...

This past Sunday I missed church. I had spent the weekend on vacation with my family and got back in town too late in the afternoon. I missed out on the opportunity to take the sacrament and renew the covenants I made with God when I was baptized years ago. Attending sacrament and other meetings each Sunday is one of the main ways in which I am able to feel the influence...

In biblical times, the true followers of Christ and worshipers of God believed many commandments and guidelines that directly related to their lifestyle, even down to dietary rules. In modern times, we see not eating pork, or other such restrictions as odd and perhaps not fully understandable. The key, though, isn't the fact that God’s people couldn’t eat pork, but that...
