Noah and The Rain!

We are in Shelbyville, TN today and it is raining like crazy. This morning during my studies I saw a sweet picture of Noah loading the animals on to the ark. I thought of how hard of a job that would have been to deal with all of those animals in the rain. Then driving around in Shelbyville we noticed that there was an alpaca show going on today. I thought to myself that might be interesting but I'm not going to stand in the rain for that. Then I reflected back on Noah and how he did more than work with animals but he went around teaching the people about God and His commandments. Whether it was raining or the sun was shinning. I realized that in a way I am doing the same thing going around sharing the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. It doesn't matter what the weather is like the work must go on. I am not saying I am as good as Noah because he is definitely better than I am. What I am trying to say is the Noah knew what he had received from God is true. I like Noah know the message that I have been called to share is true. I know there is a prophet on the Earth today and that Jesus Christ has restored his true church to the Earth.

Sticking to the theme of Noah I thought of how hard it might have been for him to see all of these people he grew up with and worked side by side with go down in the flood because they wouldn't accept the truth. I know that sorrow comes when those you labor amongst fail to accept the truth you have to share. I know that if you take the time to read the Book of Mormon you will know it is true and have a desire to live by its teach. I know that as you do this you will see great blessings in your lives and feel the love of God. So I strongly encourage that you give it a try. Check out http://www.mormon.org/, order a free Book of Mormon, and read it, think about it, and then sincerely ask God if it is true. He will let you know and never lead you astray. I know you will receive an answer and be greatly blessed because of it. I hope you all have a good day and stay dry.
