The Lord's invitation to us in D&C 78 and His promised blessings are so beautiful and inspiring. They give me hope and perspective.
God's Invitation- 2: listen to the counsel of him who has ordained you from on high, who shall speak in your ears the words of wisdom
- 3: establish... the affairs of the storehouse for the poor of my people
- 4: advance the cause ... to the salvation of man
- 5: be equal in the bonds of heavenly things, yea, and earthly things also
- 7: prepare yourselves by doing the things which I have commanded you and required of you
- 11: prepare and organize yourselves by ... everlasting covenant that cannot be broken
- 19: receiveth all things with thankfulness
- 22: a faithful and wise steward
God's Promise
- 2: salvation may be unto you
- 7: I give unto you a place in the celestial world
- 12: and shall be delivered [from] the buffetings of Satan
- 15: you may come up unto the crown prepared for you, and be made rulers over many kingdoms
- 17: how great blessings the Father hath in his own hands and prepared for you
- 18: be of good cheer, for I will lead you along
- 18: The kingdom is yours and the blessings thereof are yours
