I apologize that I have once again fallen behind. We are visiting family and I have slacked on this responsibility.


Day 54- Friday, May 27
Read- Alma 34-36
Mark- Alma 34:32-33
Quote- "The thought of intentionally committing serious sin now and repenting later is perilously wrong. Never do that. Many start that journey of intentional transgression and never make it back. Premeditated sin has greater penalties and is harder to overcome. If there is sin, repent now-while you can." ~Elder Richard G. Scott
Question- What does Satan do to try to keep you from repenting? How many reasons can you think of for why it's important to repent no?


Day 55- Saturday, May 28
Read- Alma 37-38
Mark- Alma 37:35-37
Quote- "Have little or no fear for the young man or the young woman, who honestly and conscientiously  supplicate God twice a day for the guidance of His Spirit. I am sure that when the temptation comes they will have strength to overcome it by the inspiration that shall be given to them. Supplicating the Lord for the guidance of His Spirit places around us a safeguard, and if we...honestly seek the guidance of the Spirit of the Lord, I can assure you that we will receive it." ~President Heber J. Grant 
Question- What are some things you can talk to the Lord about? How does He direct you for good?


Day 56- Sunday, May 29
Read- Alma 39-41
Mark- Alma 41:10
Quote- "You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible." ~President Ezra Taft Benson
Question- Alma uses four chapters (39-42) to counsel his son Corianton to repent. How important is it to you to follow the counsel of your parents and other righteous priesthood leaders? Read Alma 36:20. During the time Alma was racked with torment for his sins whose words did he remember that causes him to cry out for forgiveness?


Day 57- Monday, May 30
Today is a catch up day! If you are all caught up you can study Alma 32 and ponder these questions: To what does Alma liken the seed? Why is faith important for the seed to grow? How can you know if it is a good seed?
