Scriptural Assurance

This morning, I read the following in Mosiah 7.
29 For behold, the Lord hath said: I will not succor my people in the day of their transgression; but I will hedge up their ways that they prosper not; and their doings shall be as a stumbling block before them.
30 And again, he saith: If my people shall sow filthiness they shall reap the chaff thereof in the whirlwind; and the effect thereof is poison.
31 And again he saith: If my people shall sow filthiness they shall reap the east wind, which bringeth immediate destruction.
32 And now, behold, the promise of the Lord is fulfilled, and ye are smitten and afflicted.
33 But if ye will turn to the Lord with full purpose of heart, and put your trust in him, and serve him with all diligence of mind, if ye do this, he will, according to his own will and pleasure, deliver you out of bondage.
These verses struck me with their relevance to our current situation with Convergent.  Kent and I both feel that Dal and Kason are reaping the whirlwind of their actions.  And we are trying to turn to the Lord, to put our trust in him, and to serve him with all diligence of mind.  I read these verses to Kent and he said, "The scriptures are replete with assurances, kindness, and mercy.  Thank heaven."

Amen.
