"And Alma said unto them: Behold, ye have said that ye could not worship your God because ye are cast out of your synagogues. But behold, I say unto you, if ye suppose that ye cannot worship God, ye do greatly err, and ye ought to search the scriptures; if ye suppose that they have taught you this, ye do not understand them."
Alma 33:2
This is a good lesson from Alma. Definitely don't misunderstand and think that any of this is anti-church. Going to church and fellowshipping with other believers is a great way to get a spiritual uplift, and taking the sacrament is important. However, the point here is that worshipping God isn't something that can only be done there, one day a week, but it is something that we can do all the time... praying for help and guidance in any circumstance, and (through prayer) having God with us no matter where we are. We don't have to face anything alone.
Today, let's remember this, and worship the Lord where we are, giving thanks for all that we have, and asking God to teach and lead us in his path.
