ALMA 44, HOW TO DEAL WITH ENEMIES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS


So, I am dealing with a really interesting situation right now.

I have petitioned the Lord for relief and am getting some in a way I had not expected.

While in the temple last night, I asked for guidance from the Scriptures and this is what I got.  My first impulse when the Book of Mormon fell open to the war chapters was that these were irrelevant to my situation.

And then I read a little bit and guffawed right there in the chapel:

It does not always have to be a physical war.

More often than not, we are engaged in a war of words and perceptions.
