Let Us All Press On!

These lyrics and this arrangement are marching through my mind this morning...Fear Not...Courage...If We Do What's Right and on and on.  This arrangement is the best ever!  I treated myself to hearing the Tabernacle Choir sing it and will now gift it to you!  here  #243 (Spoiler alert...IF you listen to this arrangement it will forever be in your head!)

A great theme song for these times!

These times...I find myself saying in conversation---when the virus passes over...the virus will come, do it's damage and pass over.  That reminds me of the Passover - Exodus 12:21-28  such a simple thing they were asked to do and obedience brought the promised blessings. 

Just like one of my all time favorites with Moses and his instruction to make a pole with a brass fiery serpent on it and the people were instructed to look, if they got a bite - Numbers 21:6-9  I know I've written several times about these two incidents because I love the lessons in them...don't discount the simplicity or easiness of the counsel by Prophets...don't doubt-just do it!

Never have I been more thankful for the intensity of my testimony that we are led by a real Prophet!

Come Follow Me...about following the Savior and by doing as counseled by President Nelson?...I am also following him!

Exodus 12:

21 ¶ Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, ^aDraw out and take you a ^blamb according to your ^cfamilies, and kill the ^dpassover.

22 And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the ^ablood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.

23 For the Lord will ^apass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the Lord will ^bpass over the door, and will not ^csuffer the ^ddestroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

Numbers 21:
 6 And the Lord sent ^afiery ^bserpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.

7 ¶ Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have ^asinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses ^bprayed for the people.

8 And the Lord said unto Moses, ^aMake thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall ^blive.

9 And Moses made a ^aserpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.
