Faith-the Choice is Yours - Richard C. Edgley
You can boil all the confusion and temptation down to his suggestion; "That choice is faith." To make that choice to have faith requires us to ask and then follow Alma's 7 words to be used following our choice to have faith.
- Awake
- Arouse
- Experiment
- Exercise
- Desire
- Work
- Plant
See if you can find the use of these actual action words in relation to gaining faith within his talk. All were used but one was only alluded to unless you can find it.
The daily use of the actions regarding faith will then result in being able to testify and know that Jesus is the Christ and that Joseph Smith was a Prophet.
This would be a good talk to use in a Family Home Evening with a game being made at the end using the 7 words in some activity.
When I listened to him speak I made note that some think that those who act on faith have weak and uneducated minds. We are responsible for our own lack of faith. Faith brings us to a perfect knowledge when nurtured.
