I love when this happens
I was pondering on Lehi's vision of the tree of life and specifically the word of God
Christ is the Word - The Rod
Christ is the Way - The Path
Christ is the First Fruits - the fruit of the tree
Christ is Love - The tree, the atonement
Today when I was specifically pondering about the Word - My mind was given an additional meaning. We generally apply the Word of God to be the Scriptures
Today it took on additional meaning when I thought of the Temple. The temple is not written. It is spoken and We Covenant - Spoken Words
So - The Word is also Covenants and as we stay on the Covenant Path we can humbly approach our Savior- and know, and feel and see - The fruits of the tree
And partake of the power of his atonement and love.
and whoso would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it, they would never perish; neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindness, to lead them away to destruction.
