Confess and Repent to be in the Books

Much of the Book of Moroni within the larger Book of Mormon deals with how ordinances and meetings and church governance were conducted in the time of Moroni around the end of 2nd century America.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is largely patterned in the way Moroni describes therein.

Here is an interesting snippet from the described section:

Moroni 6

7 And they were strict to observe that there should be no iniquity among them; and whoso was found to commit iniquity, and three witnesses of the church did condemn them before the elders, and if they repented not, and confessed not, their names were blotted out, and they were not numbered among the people of Christ.

8 But as oft as they repented and sought forgiveness, with real intent, they were forgiven.

So, you need to repent so that your name is not blotted out of church records. Every time we seek forgiveness and repentance, we get it. 

Revisiting "the Mariner's Log"

 About twenty years ago, I was traveling through Las Vegas, New Mexico for my job at the time and was going through the drive-thru at the local Wendy's restaurant. I don't know what I was really thinking about at the time (it is somewhere in the audio recordings that I have done for many, many years), but what became "God's Plan of Happiness in Ten Simple Symbols" or 03IXI8E0OC was born as a drawing on a Wendy's bag.

Over the years, 03IXI8E0OC was woven into the Navigiary Allegory (better a rumination) and was re-named "the Mariner's Log" to fit into the narrative I was creating in the books I was writing.

Just recently, somebody broke out one of the windows on my truck shell and I quickly slapped some chip-board across the space that used to be the window and sealed it all with some spare white roof coating I had.  It was a big white space that looked like an art canvas, so I thought what I might do to fill the big blank spot on my vehicle.

I am looking to do something vaguely artful on that chip-board based on the Mariner's Log. I have been updating everything (slowly) and it might be interesting to share.
