2 Nephi 12: 2

"And it came to pass in the last days, when the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it."
2 Nephi 12: 2


This is just the beginning of a phrase, it doesn't complete the statement completely until later in the chapter, but it tells us some of the things that will happen in the last days.  I like the phrase "all nations shall flow unto it."  very interesting, and it gives this mental picture of a giant river, flowing upward from many sides to meet at the top of a huge mountain. :)  I think that will be an amazing thing to be a part of.  There is so much war and deceitfulness and hatred around... to see all nations joined together in one river, going towards the same place... that will be miraculous.  God is dismissed at times because people see his realm as spiritual and not physical... nothing that affects their personal world.  But God is the God of all things, spiritual, emotional, mental... physical. And the impossible peace that idealists dream of will one day be a reality... because of God, who affects all aspects of our lives, and gives life to all of us.
