    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 21, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,909 views

    Some of us choose darkness, like moles burrowing into the ground. Our behavior becomes obsessively demonic, for which there are consequences. The Gospel calls us to be what God has made us to be, creatures living in the light, with passion.
