Daily Thoughts

In the D&C we read that church meetings are to be conducted as directed and guided by the Holy Spirit, and no sincere seeker of truth should be cast out of the meeting.  However, if someone is not worthy, they should not partake of the sacrament.  D&C 46:1-6 "Hearken, O ye people of my church; for verily I say unto you that these things were spoken unto you for your profit and learning. But notwithstanding those things which are written, it always has been given to the elders of my church from the beginning, and ever shall be, to conduct all meetings as they are directed and guided by the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless ye are commanded never to cast any one out from your public meetings, which are held before the world. Ye are also commanded not to cast any one who belongeth to the church out of your sacrament meetings; nevertheless, if any have trespassed, let him not partake until he makes reconciliation. And again I say unto you, ye shall not cast any out of your sacrament meetings who are earnestly seeking the kingdom—I speak this concerning those who are not of the church. And again I say unto you, concerning your confirmation meetings, that if there be any that are not of the church, that are earnestly seeking after the kingdom, ye shall not cast them out."

A verse from the Old Testament reminds us that if keep our mind on the Lord and trust in Him, He will keep us in perfect peace. Isaiah 26:3 "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee."

A verse with a thought booklet tells us that instead of being slothful, we need to be fervent in Spirit and in serving the Lord.  Let's go forth with enthusiasm and vigor in doing whatever it is the Lord has called us to do.  Romans 12: 11"Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;"
