America The Beautiful

Last night for family night, Dexter was in charge of the song. He chose to sing "America The Beautiful"
I thought, how appropriate for Election Day! Then as we were having our morning scripture study as a family, the chapter we are on happens to be Alma 46...In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children- ...and he called it the title of liberty and he bowed himself to the earth, and he prayed mightily unto his God for the blessings of liberty to rest upon his brethren, so long as there should a band of Christians remain to possess the land."
Alma 48:17 " Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever' yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men.

How neat that we could teach our children these principles today of all days!
