Helaman 14: 30-31
"And now remember, remember, my brethren, that whosoever perisheth, perisheth unto himself; and whosoever doeth iniquity, doeth it unto himself; for behold, ye are free; ye are permitted to act for yourselves; for behold, God hath given unto you a knowledge and he hath made you free.

"He hath given unto you that ye might know good from evil, and he hath given unto you that ye might choose life or death; and ye can do good and be restored unto that which is good, or have that which is good restored unto you; or ye can do evil, and have that which is evil restored unto you."

I read this tonight (having read it before just recently) and it struck a different cord to me this time. I seemed to have heard it differently tonight than I usually do when I read it on other occasions. I find these scriptures powerful. VERY powerful. It made me realize how much power I do have over myself and over Satan. For Satan does not have a body. We, though, have a body, therefore that automatically makes us so much stronger than he is. We have the power to shut him down and follow the right path. God has given us a gift to know the good from the evil. It is Satan that is creating that temptation or confusion, but all we need to do is be strong and remember that God can help us push Satan away completely. We have the power to make right choices and we will be blessed for those good choices. Unfortunately, we have the power to choose evil, and once again it is unfortunate that we will have to pay the price for those wrong doings and unrighteous decisions. But fear not, the Lord has made a way for us to return to Him again. That is why there is the Atonement. And let me remind you that wickedness NEVER was happiness. That is truth.
