ATOMS stands for "Aaron's 'Things of My Soul'". As such, this blog is a compilation of my spiritual thoughts and insights as I study the scriptures, pray in faith, and have daily experiences. These things are the symbolic atoms that make up my life, and are personal to me. With the belief that "there hath no temptation [or experience or trial or joy] taken [me], but such as is common to man" (1 Corinthians 10:13), I post them in the hope that they bless someone, somewhere, somehow. If it be one soul, my joy is full.

Please feel free to browse, to search, to comment, to correct false doctrine you find, and to let me know if they have been positively (or negatively) influential to you.

It is my prayer that we all sail the seas of life with happiness, and obtain the wonderful blessings that God has in store for us, including living with our righteous loved ones forever, the answers to every question in life, and eternal happiness.

My posts are not to be taken as the official doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are a reflection of my progressive learning and growing into said doctrine, though.

Another Post on Weaknesses

...because I am coming to appreciate more and more the weaknesses I have.

In the spirit of enjoying the journey rather than waiting for happiness in the destination, observe this scripture:

Alma 49:14
"But behold, to their astonishment, the city of Noah, which had hitherto been a weak place, had now, by the means of Moroni, become strong, yea, even to exceed the strength of the city Ammonihah."

What weaknesses would you like to see become strengths? Maybe even your greatest strengths.

What about this scripture, on trusting in the Lord along said journey?

Alma 50:22
"And those who were faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord were delivered at all times..."

Quite a few times in my blog, I have pointed out the use of the word "all" emphatically. All is... encompassing! All times when you need deliverance, He will give it to you if you trust Him. Listen for Him. Know that He guides and He loves and He sees all.
