Daily Thoughts

In the Old Testament I read that when we cry unto the Lord in times of trouble and distress, He'll make our storms calm and bring us to the haven we desire. Ps. 107: 28-30 "Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven."

In the Book of Mormon I read about how the Lord will comfort us and bring us everylasting joy. Mourning will flee away. How silly we are when we fear man, who will die, and forget about God who created the heavens and the earth. 2 Ne. 8: 11-13 "Therefore, the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy and holiness shall be upon their heads; and they shall obtain gladness and joy; sorrow and mourning shall flee away. I am he; yea, I am he that comforteth you. Behold, who art thou, that thou shouldst be afraid of man, who shall die, and of the son of man, who shall be made like unto grass? And forgettest the Lord thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth, and hast feared continually every day, because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? And where is the fury of the oppressor?"

A verse with a thought booklet tells us that we need to think of the Lord and acknolwedge Him in all our ways and He will guide us on the right path. Prov. 3: 6 "In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."
