Join us today as we begin our study of the Come Follow Me materials with the conclusion of the Jaredite journey to the promised land. We consider how this on many levels acts as an analogy for our mortal journey and we reflect on the manner in which these Jaredites travelled. 

Charles A Callis: “We are told that when the Jaredites in their barges set forth for this land of promise, fierce and terrible tempests prevailed. The winds blew and they were in imminent danger all the while on that perilous journey. God sustained them. And we read that although these gales and tempests raged, holding destruction in their wake, that the wind was continually blowing toward the Promised Land. And these adversities through which we are passing, these terrible wars and all the horrible things that are prevailing, are in the power of God. He can stop them when He chooses, when His divine purposes are fulfilled. But let us not forget that through this sea of trouble, our adversities, the experiences through which we pass and which God will make work together for our good if we will obey Him—all these are blowing us forward to the haven of rest, to a glorious future, to eternal life, and unitedly we join in John's loving response ‘. . . even so, come Lord Jesus.’”
