Mosiah 27
I know that this is a little late but I've been in Boise for a week and didn't have the internet. As I was reading Mosiah 27 about Alma and the sons of Mosiah trying to pull people away from the church, it amazed me that when they saw the angel they were speechless. After seeing the angel Alma and the sons of Mosiah did all they could to fix the things they had told people to bring them away from the church. It made me think that through the atonement of Christ we have to opportunity to repent of the mistakes we make. If we could have the strength that Alma and the sons of Mosiah had after they saw the angel to makes things better than they were before. It would be amazing how happy our lives could be or the change we can make for other people and the things around us.

Your comment made me think of the contrast between Alma and the sons of Mosiah and Laman and Lemuel. In both cases they saw angels, but with Laman and Lemuel it didn't make any difference. In Alma's case it turned their lives around. While I haven't seen angels, I have had inspiring, spirtual experiences and I hope I can always do as you suggest - remember those so I can make things better than they were before.
I love that story because so often people think that the things they have done are so bad that they could never repent, or go on to do good things. This story proves otherwise!
