Inspiration

Sock plopped herself down on the couch. Being in the reflective mood that she was, Sock wanted to write something thoughtful and moving.

Looking around to make sure Peach was no where in sight, she started to write with her pencil in mouth. After a sentence or two, the puppet didn't like where the words were going. Taking the sheet of paper in his mouth, Sock crumpled it up and spit it across the room.

She started writing again... and again she didn't like what she saw. Sock spit that piece of paper across the room as well.

This went on for several pieces of paper.

Sock heard hobbling... it could only be Peach. Sure enough the jellybean entered the room.

Peach surveyed the paper on the floor as she hobbled up to Sock. Looking to the puppet, Peach shrugged as if to say "What on earth happened here?"

Sock motioned to her, trying to explain the mood she was in and how she wanted to write something that had meaning.

Peach laughed. She hobbled over to the bookshelf and grabbed a book of peotry. Hobbling back over to Sock, she placed the book down. It opened to a poem.

Sock started to read the poem, but Peach stuck out her tongue. Taking the page in her mouth, she ate it.

Sock's eyes grew in disbelief... she had just ruined a book.

Peach swallowed the paper and smiled. It was tasty. Placing the book back on the shelf, Peach hobbled out of the room eating Sock's failed attempts at writing along the way.

Sock let out a sigh, at least she didn't gobble her up again, and started writing.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
