After months of talking about who would read the final verse of Alma, we all read it together last night!
Alma is an ancient prophet who wrote a book in the Book of Mormon. The boys loved Alma. It was written at a time of a huge war going on between the Nephites and the Lamanites. There is a righteous captain, Moroni, who really became a hero for them. Last night we read that he died and Cara sighed, "oooohhh!" I guess it wasn't just the boys who really admire this great man.
So today, I quote Alma writing of Moroni and hope these same words can be spoken about each of us. (I am lucky to know quite a few people about whom I would say this same thing!)
"If all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men" Alma 48:17
