True Blue

"Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men." Alma 48:17

This week I learned a lot about the kind of woman I want to become. I aspire to become a successful entrepreneur and I know that if I work hard I will be able to accomplish my goals. I have to make many choices in order to achieve my goal. I have to know and decide now that I will  stand always true to my convictions and principles. 

There are many ways to make money. Sometimes the fastest way is not the right way. Joseph F. Smith had an amazing experience when he was returning from his mission. His life was threatened but he remained true to his beliefs. A man with pistol in hand, demanded, “Are you a Mormon?” Joseph F. Smith responded, “Yes siree; dyed in the wool; true blue, through and through.” Joseph F smith remained tru to his beliefs. I picture him like Moroni both of them were great man of God. 

God has provided commandments for our behalf. They are not there to stop us but instead to protect us against the evil of the world. I want to teach my children that there is always a right way to accomplish our righteous desires. We have to trust in God. He will be there for us to support us in times of despair and need and if we endure to the end we will receive the same promise made to Joseph Smith "And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes."  Doctrine and Covenants 121:8
