Lenny Henderson's thoughts and quotes from favorite sources. Some photos, videos and other links of interest to me. Quoting Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who spoke to graduates at the 15 December 2007 commencement ceremony at Brigham Young University/Hawaii. "Make sure, that the choices you make in the use of new media are choices that expand your mind, increase your opportunities, and feed your soul."
2Nephi 10:23 "Therefore, cheer up your hearts, and remember that ye are free to act for yourselves—to choose the way of everlasting death or the way of eternal life"We are given choices to make, which side to choose. America has chosen and as a nation not made good choices for some time. Actually, just as no person is perfect and all need to repent of their errors and shortcomings; a country can be repentant of their collective errors. These scriptures deal with a more ominous situation than just normal sins, but relate to willful choices to follow Satan or God.
Mormon 5:21-24 "21 And also the Lord will remember the prayers of the righteous, which have been put up unto him for them."
"22 And then, O ye Gentiles, how can ye stand before the power of God, except ye shall repent and turn from your evil ways?"
"23 Know ye not that ye are in the hands of God? Know ye not that he hath all power, and at his great command the earth shall be rolled together as a scroll?"
"24 Therefore, repent ye, and humble yourselves before him, lest he shall come out in justice against you—lest a remnant of the seed of Jacob shall go forth among you as a lion, and tear you in pieces, and there is none to deliver."
