Face Toward Zion

Hear me now: Let every person take care in how they use my name, as if I had part in their every dispute, for many things provoking arguments among the people are born from pride, stubbornness, aspiring for control, and reckless indifference toward me and one another. I bear with the people still, and patiently await the return of natural fruit in my vineyard. Do not be misled by my patience, for the time is quickly approaching for the harvest of my vineyard. Amen.

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it, that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water, by the word, that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that it should be holy and without blemish.

He is despised and rejected of men — a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from him.

In Joseph Smith’s time, his approach to leading was simple: “I teach them correct principles and they govern themselves.”

The following is my feeble attempt to put the principles I found in some sort of order and groupings that makes sense. I am not married to any of this, so if you have a suggestion for a different category where a principle should go, add/delete, rearrange…I am open to, and welcome with open arms, any suggestions.

If anything I am sincere.  And am willing to correct myself when I discover that I have made an error in my conclusions.  This original post went out and must have raised the Lord’s eyebrows because He decided to drop a living parable in my lap.  

I reached out and talked to Jennifer Willis yesterday for almost 4 hours. For my part I think I had a lot of epiphanies.

The wicked shall destroy the wicked, and I will hold the peacemakers in the palm of my hand and none can take them from me.

I heard  much criticism yesterday directed toward Stephanie Snuffer; questioning her impartiality in fulfilling her duty required by the Lord. Have your wife, Stephanie Snuffer
