Last year I was pretty ambitious with my New Year's Resolution of posting to this blog every single day.
This year I've decided to tone it down. Once a week. I'd be happy with once a week.
Besides, why shouldn't I be able to share some scriptural insight at least once a week? It seems like enough of a goal to keep me in check (ie. make sure I'm getting some regular spiritual nourishment) without being overwhelming.
So here goes.
Short paragraphs. :)
I read 2 Nephi 13 (the equivalent of Isaiah 3) today. The thing that occurred to me as I read it was how it was sort of a contrast to the end of Moroni 7. Both chapters make me think of how when all is said and done, everyone will be seen for who he/she really is. All of the jewelry, perfume, fancy clothes (see 2 Ne 13) will be stripped away, and if those things were just a front, all that will be left is stink and ugliness. We will be exposed without any of those outer things to hide behind. Conversely, we can be followers of Christ, that when he comes we "shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is" (see Moroni 7).
