Faith and Repentance

I was listened to Alma 34 again today while walking.  You first believe that Jesus Christ can heal you.  That you can receive mercy.  You then repent.  This seems to mean to change your ways and humble yourself believing that your pride, hard heartedness, judging others and anger are not the right way.  That following the ways of Jesus are the right ways.  This takes meekness and kindness.  You also fear going back to your old ways.  Once you finally are surrendering everything to God, giving your will to God, you ask in prayer for his mercy and loving kindness.  This is the grace that you offer for the grace that He offers.  You continue remembering Christ in all that you do until one day the Lord says it is done.  You receive peace, joy and rest.  You have entered into the rest of the Lord.
