"And whoso receiveth this record, and shall not condemn it because of the imperfections which are in it, the same shall know of greater things than these. Behold, I am Moroni; and were it possible, I would make all things known unto you."
Mormon 8:12
Reading about Moroni makes me feel bad for the guy, especially when he tells us things like "I have not friends nor whither to go" (Mormon 8:5). I think he was amazing for his dedication to the Lord when many others probably would have just given up, and he's also a great example of finding purpose and hope and relying on the Lord.
I know a lot of people are struggling with problems similar to the ones that Moroni had, even if not for the same reasons. We don't always have friends or whither to go. We often find ourselves alone, or persecuted for our faith. Like Moroni though, we can endure and look towards the future.
Moroni was speaking to us in his writings, and we too can reach out to others through our writings, even if there is no one present. We can also develop a close relationship with God, which is something that can sustain us through even the hardest times.
Today, let's reach out to others and help them feel less alone, and let's also share our knowledge with others, whether through a journal, blog, email, video, or other means. :) God will help guide us to do good for others even when we are alone, if we go to him and ask. :) Let's be cool like Moroni. :)
