Alma, the faithful convert of Abinadi, is told by the Lord that he will have eternal life. How sweet those words must have been for this faithful traveler! The road had not been easy. He had suffered terribly while in bondage to Amulon. Yet, he was ever faithful. He had taken upon himself the name of Christ. We, like Alma, will have tough times, but we have taken upon us the name of Jesus Christ. He is our Master and our Deliverer. He loves us. Our Father in Heaven loves us. Despite our weakness and sins, he is ever forgiving and merciful. He has already forgiven us; he died for us. We need only come unto him and plead for forgiveness with a broken heart and a contrite spirit. We must “pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all things.”
