3 Nephi 21:19 -- On A World without Lies and Strife

"And it shall come to pass that all lyings, and deceivings, and envyings, and strifes, and priestcrafts, and whoredoms, shall be done away."
3 Nephi 21:19


This is just one verse from a really incredible chapter. It is talking about the Last Days and lots of stuff that will happen, but this verse struck me because I was imagining a world where this was true.  It's an incredible idea.  Can you imagine a world without lying (I am hoping fiction is still okay because it is stories and not deception).

The rest of the things are incredible too.  A world without strife... and these things are on God's agenda.  They will happen. :)  Something to look forward to.

Today, let's work hard to be the kind of people who can live in that sort of deception-free and strife-free world... let's learn to let go of our own patterns of deception and strife, and work out with God how to clear all of these things out of our lives so that we will be ready for God's will to be done on earth.
