Rejoice

I love love love this gospel because it gives me hope. It gives me hope that for everything I am doing, and all the effort I am giving I might one day be rewarded for it and that my efforts won't be in vain.

One of the lovely girls from my group this last week shared with us a scripture. This is now one of my very favorite scriptures. Here's why.


"And I soon go to the place of my rest,   
    which is with my redeemer
for I know that in him I shall rest.          
  And I rejoice in the day when my 
mortal shall put on immortality,       
       and shall stand before him; then shall I see his face 
      with pleasure
and he will say unto me;             
          Come unto me, ye blessed
here is a place prepared for you in the          
    mansions of my Father. Amen."
                     -Enos 27

I love the word rejoice from that scripture. It reminds me that I should not fear what might happen to me in this life, for if I endure it well, I might gain everything and be blessed when I return to live with my father. And when times get hard, and struggles happen he is always there. Just one prayer away.

  1. Thank you for sharing that scripture! Love it :) I feel like I must've heard it before, but I am only in Jacob 5 in the b.o.m. so I have not gotten to that part yet :) I have never heard efy music before! I will have to listen to it!

    1. Thank you for the comment! I checked out your blog today and I must say your faith is super strong! I'm kind of obsessed with this wonderful gospel. Thank you for your example. EFY music is my favorite! I love how it is more upbeat than MoTab, but still just as uplifting! If you would like to go to http://ce.byu.edu/yp/music2013.php and type in the code 52485966 for free music! (I went to EFY twice this year, and got two codes but don't need both.) :)
