#Hymn1001 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲, 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗕𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 Come, Thou Fount of ev’ry blessing; Tune my heart to sing Thy grace. Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, Sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount; I’m fixed upon it: Mount of Thy redeeming love. 2. Here I raise my Ebenezer; Hither by Thy help I’m come. And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wand’ring from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious blood. 3. Oh, to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrained to be! Let Thy goodness, like a fetter, Bind my wand’ring heart to Thee. Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love. Here’s my heart, O take and seal it; Seal it for Thy courts above.

And I will also ease the burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs, even while you are in bondage; and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions. — Mosiah 24:14 · The Book of Mormon #TheBookOfMormon #ComeUntoChrist

#Hymn243 𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝗨𝘀 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗢𝗻 Let us all press on in the work of the Lord, That when life is o’er we may gain a reward; In the fight for right let us wield a sword, The mighty sword of truth.

In light of that, it has always been significant to me that the Book of Mormon, one of the Lord’s powerful keystones in this counteroffensive against latter-day ills, begins with a great parable of life, an extended allegory of hope versus fear, of light versus darkness, of salvation versus destruction—an allegory of which Sister Ann M. Dibb spoke so movingly this morning. — Jeffrey R. Holland, 2009 #TheBookOfMormon #ComeUntoChrist @Ch_JesusChrist

#Hymn192 𝗛𝗲 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝗱! 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝗱 He died! The great Redeemer died, And Israel’s daughters wept around. A solemn darkness veiled the sky; A sudden trembling shook the ground. 2. Come, Saints, and drop a tear or two For him who groaned beneath your load; He shed a thousand drops for you, A thousand drops of precious blood. 3. Here’s love and grief beyond degree; The Lord of glory died for men. But lo! what sudden joys were heard! The Lord, though dead, revived again. 4. The rising Lord forsook the tomb. In vain the tomb forbade him rise. Cherubic legions guard him home And shout him welcome to the skies.

There was a fourth man in the fire, and the form of the fourth was like the Son of God, and you’re blackpilling, anon?

The Book of Mormon informs us that the Devil will come along with all manner of deceitfulness, and persuade the people to lie a little, to steal a little, and to rob your neighbor of anything that lies within your reach. Such a course leads to death and dissolution, and will cause those to mourn hereafter that follow it. — Heber C. Kimball, Journal of Discourses 8:331 (1861) #TheBookOfMormon #ComeUntoChrist @Ch_JesusChrist

#Hymn311 𝗪𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗦𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 We meet again as sisters On this the Sabbath day To worship God together, To testify and pray. Now may the Holy Spirit, Descending like a dove, Enlarge our minds with knowledge And fill our hearts with love. 2. We meet to plan our service To neighbors now in need. May charity and kindness Inspire our ev’ry deed. And as we use our talents For good and noble ends, May God be our companion And angels be our friends. 3. We meet to sing together The praises of our Lord, To seek our exaltation According to his word. To ev’ry gospel blessing The Lord has turned the key, That we, with heav’nly parents, May sing eternally.

Huge shout-out to Mephibosheth N. Sirrine, the missionary who brought the restored gospel to my family in 1843 in Michigan and wrote about it in his journal.

This is my prayer, that the Book of Mormon may become the keystone of our lives, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen. — Ezra Taft Benson, 1986 #TheBookOfMormon #ComeUntoChrist @Ch_JesusChrist

Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day. — Alma 37:37 · The Book of Mormon #TheBookOfMormon #ComeUntoChrist

Made some face flashcards yesterday, to better learn the leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and familiar historical figures. You can recognize the First Presidency, might even be able to identify the full Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. Do you recognize the presiding bishop? What about Eliza Snow, Phebe Woodruff, or Newel K. Whitney? Give it a go, share your score! Feedback always welcome. andgreenjello.com/leaders/
