"And as many as were convinced did lay down their weapons of war, and also their hatred and the tradition of their fathers."
Helaman 5:51
This is an interesting melding of the physical and spiritual as well. Conversion to the gospel of Christ helped these people not only change their actions, but they changed their minds.
I think that we can do the same, with God's help. We can become new both inside and out, letting go of our weapons *and* our hatred as they did... or whatever other bad external and internal choices that we've been making. :)
Today, let's be willing to let go of our negative actions and our negative emotions. Let's be willing to do good and not evil to the people around us, both physically and spiritually. Let's be willing to let go of our old selves and learn from God how to be the best selves we can be going forward.
