And so King Mosiah went and ask the Lord if he should let his sons go among the Lamanites to preach the word. And who better to go than the sons of Mosiah and their buddies? They couldn't any longer stand for any human soul to perish. The very thought that any soul might endure endless torment made them shake and tremble. This is how the Spirit of the Lord acted upon them. They were once the vilest sinners, but the Lord saw fit in His infinite mercy to spare them. After their experience with the angel of the Lord, they could be the ultimate in empathy toward the Lamanites having walked a bit in muddy shoes.
“A bottle of water is one dollar at the store, two dollars at the gym, four dollars at the airport and seven dollars on a damned flight. Same water, different price tag. Why? It aint about the water, it’s about where it’s at. When you feel like people aint seeing your value, it aint cause you aint worth much, it’s cause you’re in the wrong spot. Maybe you aint around the right crowd. Maybe you’re stuck in a place that aint built to recognize what you bring. So next time you feel underestimated, stop doubting your worth. Ask yourself, where am I standing? Because if a damned bottle of water can be worth seven dollars just by switching its location, imagine what happens when you put yourself in the right place.” (DJT)
And of course the Lord said to Mosiah: Let them go there, [let them change their location] because many will believe in their words; and they will have eternal life. (COC Mosiah 12)
