The Rest of the Lord



“… What does it mean to enter into the rest of the Lord? Speaking for myself, it means that through the love of God I have been won over to Him, so that I can feel at rest in Christ, that I may no more be disturbed by every wind of doctrine, by the cunning and craftiness of men, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; and that I am established in the knowledge and testimony of Jesus Christ, so that no power can turn me aside from the straight and narrow path that leads back into the presence of God, to enjoy exaltation in His glorious kingdom; that from this time henceforth I shall enjoy that rest until I shall rest with Him in the heavens.”

Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, 425

I came to this blog off a Mitt Romney site that had a link to LDS blogs. I enjoyed reading your blog. I am tying to promote Mitt Romney for a run in 2012. I wrote an article at Triond praising his CPAC staw poll win. IF you could pass the link to fellow Mitt Romney fans, and encourage them to also support Mitt Romney for a 2012 run it would be great.
