MOSIAH 24 AND 25

We have come in contact with Amulon -- the leader of the wicked priests of Noah. He is put in charge of Alma and his people. Amulon does not like Alma because Alma left the little band of wicked priests. Alma and his people start praying mightily unto God. So Amulon tells all of them if they pray any more he will have them put to death. They start to have a prayer in their hearts. The Lord eases their burdens and eventually they are able to escape from Amulon. They travel for 12 days and come to the land of Zarahemla where King Mosiah receives them with joy.

Once in Zarahemla King Mosiah gathers all the people and has what we would call General Conference. King Mosiah reads from the records of Zeniff and he reads the account of Alma. He is reading what we now read in the Book of Mormon. It is really cool to think that 2,000+ years ago King Mosiah is reading the same thing that we read. Has to give you goose bumps!

DINNER CONVERSATION: How does the Lord ease your burdens?
