Alma 48:7

"Now it came to pass that while Amalickiah had thus been obtaining power by fraud and deceit, Moroni, on the other hand, had been preparing the minds of the people to be faithful unto the Lord their God."
Alma 48:7


How we spend our time is a big thing in determining who we become, who we follow, and where we will end up after this life. :)  The interesting thing here is that, not only does Moroni win in heaven, but he won the war on earth as well.  Amalickiah didn't even get to win in the short term. :)  In one of my classes today, we were talking about some poetry that brought up the question of why we are here on earth, and many of my students said that life is just a waiting period until you die.  Pretty sad perspective.  Moroni, on the other hand, thinks that time is meant for us, to prepare ourselves to be faithful to God.  Let's get on it. :)
