Thank you. I suffer from Complexed PTSD, that permeates my life, because of long term childhood trauma and this spoke deeply to me. Such insight is so comforting. You have poured healing baum on my scars.
Oh my gosh that story of the ER and the mom losing hope and /her/ mother telling her “God is there” because her friends and neighbours were there 🥹 I can’t get over how beautiful that is!! If you are losing faith, others can bouy you up with their faith and bring God when you can’t feel Him there ❤🥹
I was so touched by this. Grace, you helped me look at this in a different light. I had never thought of "survivor's guilt", although I have felt it myself. It gave a new dimension to this story. "He can break the chains of grief, He can break the chains of death." Thank you, that thought will stay with me. David, I was also touched by you following that with the thought that they probably felt that they would have chosen to say "take me instead" and realizing that that is exactly what our Savior did. Thank you!
I had an angel. Her name is Marnel. I had been inactive for a year and a half in college. I was at my next school, in a new city. No one knew me. I could have just disappeared, but I decided to go back to church. I was struggling with requesting to have my name removed from church records - I had to be in or out, not just continuing to drift along. The church had just released the new edition of the scriptures, and I had to have them, so I went back. Only, I was going to do it on my terms. I showed up at sacrament in a pair of basic 501 button-fly shrink-to-fit Levi's and probably a T-shirt. Nothing fancy, not even designer jeans. I sat in the back of the chapel, feeling sheepish for wearing pants and not a dress, but I was daring people not to accept me. Marnel came over, sat down by me, introduced herself, and all that. I told her I felt bad about wearing jeans, and she said, "It doesn't matter what your wearing, the important thing is that you're here." That was Fall 1981; I've been active ever since. ❤
I love the not finished part. I was busy cooking and having breakfast before I started paying attention at the not finished part. This touched my soul. This story is one of my favorites. "But behold our work is not yet finished " so touching. Thank you
I was having a bad day and decided to start my studies in the Book of Mormon. Wow! What an amazing lesson you both presented today! Such tragedies inclusive was given in the lesson and I gained immensely from the Holy Spirit what I needed to get through this day. Thank you very much for an amazing lesson that will always touch my heart, that my problems are small. Bless you both for being examples of Alma and Amulek. Loved this lesson tremendously!! ❤️🥰
Love this study! Thank you for breaking the chapters and verses down into these amazing nuggets that are now in my heart. I look forward to my study each day with you!
I loved this story of Amulek & Alma so much😢. I feel like in every story you can see God's love for different people in different forms. Before listening to you guys I had questions about "holy callings being prepared according to a preparatory redemption for such". I thought 'atonement of Jesus Christ, patriarchal blesssing, maybe it's to help us grow with God'. And what it means "to enter into the Lord's rest", I saw it a lot in ch 12 and it felt important. I learn so much insight from ya'll in every video, ya'll were my God send, thank you so much! ❤ Hope you have a God week! 😊
This is so beautiful, this makes so excited to do my scripture study every day and hopefull to know what God has in store for me and allllllll of my friends and family who can be saved ❤
I have a Mary Engelbreit calendar in my bedroom, and the theme for June is In One Day. In one day you can come to life, in one day you can fall in love, in one day you can leave this life. Thanks so much for all of your work! Grace, it's especially meaningful this week since your mom & dad shared his recent health challenges. 💗
Love these daily bites of scripture. Is there a way we can get a close up of the word of the week in the newsletter? Sometimes (like this week), the definition is shown but not read out. I love to write them in my book and am bummed when this happens. Just a suggestion...
To us as human beings, death is something we fear. This is Gods plan, and he knows death is not to be feared, and it is beautiful. Those who died that awful death will stand as witnesses against that evil.
It's not really God's will. God's will is freedom for his children. The Lamanites were free to choose their actions and yes they choose genocide. God did not endorce or encourage these actions.
Things like murder are horrible but they happen because God let's us use our agency and sometimes others agency hurts someone else. That's life. But the good thing about God is that He has a will, Jesus Christ, that we can turn to when those horrid things happen. Others may hurt us but God is all powerful and can help heal us and turn trials around to make us stronger. Bad things happen as a result of this life and mortality but God is bigger than this life and makes all things right. Alma 12:22-26 teaches us that we have this life and probationary state as a time to prepare to meet God and with out it we would be miserable (v.26) so even though this life sucks sometimes I like to remember the plan of redemption that comes from having this probationary state that makes it so we are not miserable forever and can learn and grow. God's will is not for genocide to happen, He doesn't sit in heaven all day deciding what horrible thing should happen next. His will is for us to turn to Him when horrible things happen and to find solace in Him. He is moving everyday to orchestrate ways that the bad things can turn into opportunities for our betterment. He is working to bring us to Him through Jesus Christ for our Salvation

It was a beautiful lesson. Truly God intended for me to hear this lesson as I entered His Holy House.

“A life with God is Eternal”
This experience with Alma and Amulek remind me of this, “Are you willing to LIVE for the Savior?”
Well done. Life with God never end. Thank you very much😍👏
Thank you so much for those wonderful insights. I loved hearing all of it. This was so edifying! (Watching from France)🥰😊.

Grace, it's especially meaningful this week since your mom & dad shared his recent health challenges.
💗
The imagery of the blood and the white clothing, draws my mind to the significance of the veil in the temple.
Thank you!
Love this so much ❤ Grace what was your name before?
Also, Grace, what a blessing that you sat where you did on fast Sunday ❤❤
Grace is the daughter of Emily Belle Freeman, who used to do Didn't Miss This with David. Sister Freeman is now our general young women's president.
I know! I really want to hear that story too! (The story about how they changed her name as a baby.)
Yes what were you first called?
Sister Freeman shared this story on Instagram on her Inklings on Thursday.
This br. receives the gift of courage from above .

First!
This sounds like genocide to me in Chapter 16. Please help me understand how that is God's will.
To us as human beings, death is something we fear. This is Gods plan, and he knows death is not to be feared, and it is beautiful. Those who died that awful death will stand as witnesses against that evil.
I’ve stopped thinking of it as death but as a graduation. It was their time to continue their journey beyond the veil
It's not really God's will. God's will is freedom for his children. The Lamanites were free to choose their actions and yes they choose genocide. God did not endorce or encourage these actions.
