Review from Sunday, January 6th.

Topic last Sunday: "How can I know my Heavenly Father?"

We had a wonderful discussion about our Heavenly Father. We talked a lot about having a personal relationship with Him and the importance of prayer--our easiest form of communication.

There are a couple of scriptures I didn't get to share on Sunday that I would like you to think about:

First from 1 John 4: 7-8

7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 

8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 

And from Mosiah 4:

11 And again I say unto you as I have said before, that as ye have come to the knowledge of the glory of God, or if ye have known of his goodness and have tasted of his love, and have received a remission of your sins, which causeth such exceedingly great joy in your souls, even so I would that ye should remember, and always retain in remembrance, the greatness of God, and your own nothingness, and his goodness and long-suffering towards you, unworthy creatures, and humble yourselves even in the depths of humility, calling on the name of the Lord daily, and standing steadfastly in the faith of that which is to come, which was spoken by the mouth of the angel.
12 And behold, I say unto you that if ye do this ye shall always rejoice, and be filled with the love of God, and always retain a remission of your sins; and ye shall grow in the knowledge of the glory of him that created you, or in the knowledge of that which is just and true.

The beauty of these words fill me with all kinds of goodness. So please ponder on them and think about your own relationship with Heavenly Father. And realize that sometimes it is most important to remember that above all else--God is love.
