one is here who went to Jackson County in a1831
The feeling was If I could get with the Saints all
my sorrow & trouble would be at an end so it is
with the Saints in England. Before we preached
the gathering to them the lord Revealed to them that
they would be gathered we told them not to reveal
it untill the time came do you have any thing now
that you looked for in the Begining if not sumthing is
the matter you dont do right you dont settle this
difficulty or that But what is the matter you are wrong
yourself what henders you from praying all day &
fasting and prayer you have enough to eat but the
great difficulty is when they moved to Zion they
brought themselves with them you had so many devels
in you that they trouble you. when the devel & wicked
men have afflicted & persecuted us as far as is for our
good then the Lord says stop & go no further they are held
up But if we take evry thing patiently all our afflictions
will work together for our good. But do you at the present
time have any thing to mar your peace except what you
bring upon yourselves you have privileges here but do
the people prize their privileges why do the people go to
the kanyons after wood on Sunday why have they gone
today why dont I do it why do I not visit my farm
the Bath House on Sunday Because it is not right & sets
a Bad example I cannot do these things on the
Sabbath. Some will take poles of[f] from ahis Neighbors farm
take a chain or an ax without liberty this is wrong
their is nothing on Earth to mar our peace but owur
own acts But the great difficulty is they cannot get
away from themselves. they think perhaps if they
go to the gold digings they can get away from themselves
but they cannot. When persecution & trials come
they search the good seed and it dries up. How are you
going to get Zion nothing Henders our having Zions
But ourselves we have all the privileges of Angels to
worship God & get all Blessings we need. we mean
to war with all Devils temptations & trials untill we
overcome I will fight untill I overcome if I fall
in the grave their is others who will take my place
their are many who will fight & if it needs be we
will take the sword I hope all who want good principles
will have the privilege of receiveing them to day is a day of
tithing & sacrafice tomorrow cometh the Burning I would say
that you cannot be perfect without me nor I without you
the providences of God has so interwoven & identifyed
the interest of the children of Adam together that they
cannot be perfect without each other do you enjoy your-
selves & have peace. I have peace & no man can take it frm
me if you do not have peace it is because you drive stakes
& the Lord will not let you do it But let the will of God
be done if you dont enjoy Zion it is Because you dont say
let the will of God be done their is nothing to take your
Zion away but yourselves we are to be tryed & tempted
