I find it very interesting that Alma pleads with Corianton to repent and change his ways. I love this chapter because of the genuine concern coming from Alma. I know that I haven't always been the greatest child to my parents but I know that they love me and will do whatever it takes to help me be happy and to stay on the right path!
Just as Alma is pleading for Corianton to choose the right and get back on the straight and narrow, I know that my parents plead for me everyday! Not that I'm that bad, but I know that they worry about not only me but all of my siblings! They worry for our safety and for our health! They just want to make sure that we are alright and that we can and will return home to them all in one piece! I know that it is especially hard for them because we are spread all over the world! I can't even imagine how scary it would be to have your kids in foreign lands by themselves!
I just am so thankful for my parents and for all they have done for me and for my siblings! They have taught me so much! I know that they love me unconditionally even though sometimes I don't deserve it! As I read this chapter, I imagined my earthly and Heavenly parents as Alma pleading to me to choose the right and to return home to them!
I miss my parents so much and it is so hard to be away from them and my brothers and sisters but I know that they are praying for me and are there behind me one hundred percent!! I just love them all so much and I hate myself for not telling them as much while we were growing up! They are what keeps me going and what gets me through everyday! Just knowing that they love me and that they will help me if I need them is such a comfort! I can't ever repay them for all they do or Heavenly Father for giving me such a great blessing in my life! From this chapter I have learned that I need to remember that they are there for me and will never leave my side no matter how stupid I can be! They are my best friends and I love them so much!!
