Daily Thoughts

In the Old Testament a promise is given that the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, just as the waters cover the sea. What a wonderful day that will be! Hab. 2: 14 "For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea."

In the D&C we're told that if a man marries a wife in the world their covenant of marriage only lasts for this world only and after they are dead they'll no longer be bound together. Only in Holy Temples can couples be sealed for eternity. D&C 132: 15 "Therefore, if a man marry him a wife in the world, and he marry her not by me nor by my word, and he covenant with her so long as he is in the world and she with him, their covenant and marriage are not of force when they are dead, and when they are out of the world; therefore, they are not bound by any law when they are out of the world."

Some scriptures with a thought booklet tell us that Jesus brought Light into the world but evil people prefer darkness. The righteous love the light because they are not ashamed of their deeds being made manifest, but wicked people think darkness will help hide their sins. However, no one can hide anything from God. Let's live our lives so we can welcome the Light! Light is associated with life, but darkness is an ally of death. It takes courage to come unto the Light. John 3: 19-21 "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God."
