Matthew 11:28-29 "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." He will be a great comfort to you in your life during great trials and tribulation. Go to Him, and he shall lift those burdens and bring peace to your soul.
Doctrine & Covenants 121:7-9 "My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment; And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes. Thy friends do stand by thee, and they shall hail thee again with warm hearts and friendly hands." This life is really but a small moment..so live it well, endure to the end, have faith in Christ and great blessings will come to you.
Doctrine & Covenants 123:17 "Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed." With Heavenly Father's great and glorious plan, we should rejoice and prepare as best we can for that day when we shall see Him again. Live your life with faith and hope, having a sure foundation that God lives and that we may live with Him again.
Doctrine & Covenants 128:20-22 "Go forward and not backward. Courage, brethren; and on, on to the victory! Let your hearts rejoice, and be exceedingly glad. Let the earth break forth into singing. Let the dead speak forth anthems of eternal praise to the King Immanuel, who hath ordained, before the world was, that which would enable us to redeem them out of their prison; for the prisoners shall go free." (v.22) I absolutely love this..."Go forward and not backward", "Let your hearts rejoice", "Let the earth break forth into singing"...I mean, shouldn't we be overjoyed with excitement for the coming of our Savior? For the GREAT plan of Salvation? For the love that our Savior has for us, enough to die for our own sins? For the great love our Heavenly Father has for each and every one of us, and having Him be there for us always? Shouldn't we be jumping for joy for the blessings our Father has given us and for the wonderful life we have? These scriptures speak such power and just brings such excitement to my soul, for I am excited for the coming of the Savior. I am excited for the day that I may be reunited with my Father in Heaven, my Savior and all those in my family and friends that have passed on to the other side. I hope to have endured well in this life and to be blessed with eternal blessings so that I may be able to live with them forever.
Ether 12:27 "And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them." I absolutely love this. This right here testifies to me the power that God has. How He can change us for the better, as long as we humble ourselves and "surrender" to Him.
