Alma understood the great responsibility of the scriptures in his life, the life of his family, and future generations. It is vitally important for all of us to also take care of "These Things".

Alma understood the great responsibility of the scriptures in his life, the life of his family, and future generations. It is vitally important for all of us to also take care of "These Things".
One of the most powerful truths found in the scriptures is that the small things we do often produce the biggest results.
When our minds truly "catch hold" of the love that God and Jesus have for us, it can take us out of some very dark abysses and change our whole outlook on life.
When Jesus Christ is at the center of your world and life, you will see that all things not only lead to him, but also come from him.
If you are looking for offenses, you will always find them - it takes no skill to look for them. Part of the journey of building faith is learning how to handle being offended.
When Alma literally sits down and tag teams his good friend and fellow missionary Amulek, he steps up to the plate and he knocks it out of the park with over 30 ways to gain more power out of our prayers and worship patterns.
The more we understand how to really “worship” our merciful God, the greater our abilities to do it will be enhanced.
The latter half of Alma 32 is something we should devote a lifetime of study to. That said, there are very basic gardening principles that everyone needs to become good at to "sow and grow" your own testimony and faith in Jesus Christ.
Humility may be one of the greatest and noblest of virtues…also one of the hardest to cultivate. God wants to give His kingdom to those who are humble, and how we choose to get that virtue can often determine our readiness for it.
When you compare the stark contrast between the Zoramites arrogant and judgmental prayer with the humble and hopeful prayer of Alma - I think there are some great lessons to be learned for us.
