1 In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphim; each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
This sounds like a horror movie. Or a suspense thriller.
5 Then said I: Wo is unto me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips; and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts.
6 Then flew one of the seraphim unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said: Lo, this has touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
I'd rather take the sacrament. This sounds harsh.

The goal of this is to read more scriptures, think about them more, and understand them better. I hope to post as near once a day as I can. Most of the time I use muscle testing to find the specific scriptures I need to read that day.

I think of it another way.
life is harsh... I'm thinking of your recent experience with Kaia, trying to find out what is wrong, knowing it should be simple, and wanting sleep and not finding it. Mental capacity hanging in the balance, easy to just fall off the edge and let insanity take over or to hang in a bit longer.
I'm not sure what was going through your head as all of that was going on. I just know how I usually am when I'm faced with real situations. Sometimes I don't think but just do and everything works out just fine. When I think too much about it all it drives me nuts.
If I could take a coal to the lips and have my iniquity taken away so easily, it would seem worth it.
I guess you're right, if you could just do that and have the desire for the iniquity taken away. But if it's like the sacrament I'd rather take bread and water.
With Kaia, we were so tired and that makes it harder to think. I muscle tested for what I could do and did it, it helped, but we were still just tired...
