"Thus we may see that the Lord is merciful unto all who will, in the sincerity of their hearts, call upon his holy name.
Yea, thus we see that the gate of heaven is open unto all, even to those who will believe on the name of Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God."
Helaman 3:27-28
I like the idea of accessing mercy through prayer, and also that we can all have hope in heaven if we believe. We like to complicate things and sometimes think that simple promises like these don't apply to us because we've moved beyond that, or are already lost, or whatever nonsense that Satan has been whispering to us, but the truth is here, and it is plain. We can access the Lord's mercy through prayer. The gate of heaven is open to us, if we believe in Jesus Christ.
Today, let's not talk ourselves out of salvation, no matter what complications or obstacles we find in our lives. Let's hope in Christ, and pray and talk to him. He will grant us mercy and help us to come unto him, where we can, with his help, "work out [our] salvation" (Alma 34:37; Philippians 2:12). God loves us and he wants to see us succeed. Let's listen to him and not to the adversary, and hold on to mercy and hope.
