Righteousness Shield

We have an invisible shield that we put on, yet it is powerful nonetheless. I thought about this a couple of years ago and while reading in Alma this week I again thought about it. Here is my thought....

We gain strength by...
...reading the scriptures daily and remembering and thinking about what you read.
...prayer and having faith knowing Heavenly Father listens to us and loves all of us.
...paying tithes and offerings and with a good heart.
...treating all those you are around that they are precious sons and daughters of God.
...applying the Atonement in your life.
...being honest and trustworthy.
...living morally clean and obeying the word of wisdom

The list can go on and I am thankful to have the opportunity to live the principles of the gospel. Thankful to be taught what is right and to be raised in this wonderful church. I have so much faith in the list above. I can feel the immense blessings and power that comes from living the best of my ability. I read the scriptures daily and prayer a few times a day. I know Heavenly Father loves me and the Savior does as well.
