Book of Mormon - Alma 1:29-31

May 28, 2010: The people are righteous and keeping the commandments and so the Lord blesses and prospers them and they become "far more wealthy than those who did not belong to their church." However, the people of God were still quick to help the needy. I don't know that I have ever seen this story before but it really struck me today. The Lord blesses us so we can bless and help others. I need to be better at giving and helping those in need with what I have. I have seen blessings come from generosity and so I need to put my trust in the Lord, drop my walls of selfishness, and give to those in need.
