March Madness Success

So it is official, I finish the Book Of Mormon last night. I read the whole book in 1 month. This is crazy, I do believe that this is probably the only reason I am dealing so well with what has been going on at work. I know that the Lord has strengthen me in ways I don't fully understand. I am so grateful for the challenge and for the appreciation that I have for the Book Of Mormon.

Today while waiting at the temple I opened up to Alma 14, when Alma and Amulek were imprisoned and watched as the lawyers and judges burned everyone who was a believer. I wept as I came to the realization that there may come times that we will have to stand up for what we believe in even at the cost of our lives. Even now just writing this the tears are flowing as I wonder if I am strong enough, if I believe enough, if I have enough Faith that I could accept what is dealt to me. Could I??? Would I???

Life is about choice's and I believe I could and would stand up even unto death if that was what is required. What about you? Have you asked your self where you are in the journey? Are you ready to die for what you know is true?

Thanks for all your prayers, I feel the hand of the Lord in my life daily!
