It strikes me that what sunk into his heart was his father speaking of eternal life and the joy of the
saints. I am impressed that when I am teaching my children, the joy part is something I need to focus
on more. How much Heavenly Father loves us and how happy we will be enjoying eternal life with Him
and with our family. That's an important part of the gospel, and I think Omar is right, that my family, and
by extension me, focus too much on the consequences and negative side. And I know with Helaman,
especially, he responds way better to promise of reward than threat of punishment.
It is an amazing thing that are sins can all be taken away, and we can be completely clean, despite
ourselves. How grateful I am for the atoning sacrifice of the Savior. My Savior. I'm so grateful to be able
to repent and have my guilt swept away. It is so amazing! I'm so grateful to know how it is done, I'm so
grateful for my Savior.
