Mosiah 16

It strikes me again as I read how people, by and large, are not bad. Abinidi talks about the fall and knowing good from evil and choosing evil. He talks about choosing not to control our carnal impulses and being as base as we ever feel the urge to be. Those are the people I can see seeping and wailing and gnashing their teeth, but most people I know are really trying to choose good. Including me. We are just so hard on each other when with almost everyone we meet jsut needs love and patience and help. We take such a finite and unbending view of obedience. The impressions I got from the Lord are compassionate and forgiving instead.
