Daily Spiritual Thought: Away Put your Weapons

15 Oh, how merciful is our God! And now behold, since it has been as much as we could do to get our stains taken away from us, and our swords are made bright, let us ^ahide them away that they may be kept bright, as a testimony to our God at the last day, or at the day that we shall be brought to stand before him to be judged, that we have not stained our swords in the blood of our brethren since he imparted his word unto us and has made us ^bclean thereby.

Do we keep reminders of our sins out where we can see them? Or do we "bury" them as a witness of our disdain for sin. Are we holding on to inappropriate videos in our movie collection? Do we continually "dig up" memories of past sins? Do we still pull out harsh words and animosity toward those who have injured us? Do we efficaciously acknowledge the cleansing power of Christ to heal our hearts and souls?
