I'm running out of things to say about remembering. My three original questions have been answered. Looking at the Book of Mormon verses coming up, I'm not sure they'll add anything to the answers I've already found. Here's what's coming just in Mosiah:
- Mosiah 5:11-12 The name of Christ
- Mosiah 9:3 The Lord your God
- Mosiah 13:16 The sabbath day
- Mosiah 16:5 Carnal man is an enemy to God
- Mosiah 16:13 Only through Christ can you be saved
- Mosiah 23:27 The Lord your God
- Mosiah 25:16 It was the Lord that delivered you
- Mosiah 27:16 How great things the Lord has done for your fathers
- Mosiah 29:18 The destruction of the wicked
There are another 20 or so relevant verses in the book of Alma. (Interestingly, the word remember does not appear in the Book of Mormon after Alma 55:31.) Each of these verses teaches an important principle, but since I feel I've found what I was looking for as far as the time I take in keeping journals and working on family history projects, I think I'll move on to something different. I feel peace with the way I've decided to keep journals and do family history, and I've even understood a little better what I might focus on in the records I keep for my children. This experience has been a clear example of how I found answers in the scriptures. I look forward to having many more such experiences.
For now, I'll turn my attention away from these verses on remembering, and I'll start studying the Sunday school lessons. I will continue to jot a few notes in this blog because the principle of accountability described in the very first post still holds true, and it has helped me put a little more effort into studying.
