Word Repetition

In a 15 minute span I heard reference to or cited the name of Jesus 30 times- from the beginning of church to the end of the administration of the sacrament.

In the same meeting, From a sermon on the priesthood I heard referenced the word “priesthood” 35 times.  During the talk I also heard 35 times “God”. 

Counting words can be a very meaningful exercise. Repetition impresses important remembrance and obligation to your stewardship.

2 Nephi 33:


10 And now, my beloved brethren, and also Jew, and all ye ends of the earth, hearken unto these words and believe in Christ; and if ye believe not in these words believe in Christ. And if ye shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ, and he hath given them unto me; and they teach all men that they should do good.
