exceedingly great joy

          As ye have come to the knowledge of the glory of God, or if ye have known of his goodness and have tasted of his love, and have received a remission of your sins, which causeth such exceedingly great joy in your souls, even so I would that ye should remember, and always retain in remembrance, the greatness of God […] and standing steadfastly in the faith of that which is to come, which was spoken by the mouth of the angel.

         And behold, I say unto you that if ye do this ye shall always rejoice, and be filled with the love of God […] and ye shall grow in the knowledge of the glory of him that created you, or in the knowledge of that which is just and true.

Mosiah 4:11-12 (emphasis added)

 

i read this scripture the other day and it immediately spoke to my soul.

i love it.

i love everything about it.

it helped me when i was in a time of need.

the Lord knows us. He knows our needs, our desires, our fears and our weaknesses.

He is always there to help us.

if we will remember Him, we can be filled with His love

and have exceedingly great joy.
