this is my glory, this is my joy

Remember that the worth of souls is great in the sight of God. -D&C 18:10

I know that which the Lord hath commanded me, and I glory in it. I do not glory of myself, but I glory in that which the Lord hath commanded me; yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God to bring some soul to repentance; and this is my joy. -Alma 29:9

I was supposed to teach the Sunday School lesson last week but it was ward conference so it was supposed to be today, now cancellation… Hmm.

However, I find this is a good time to do some indexing and read some scriptures as I admire the beauty of the snow. I definitely need to recharge after this week. I’m so thankful for Sundays, for a specific day designated to resting and worship.

BYC after church along with Temple Prep at a member’s house later. I need to read Acts for seminary and look through Preach My Gospel some more. I want to finish up my personal progress soon. Read all of the standard works before my mission? Of course. I’m almost done with reading through True to the Faith. I’m working on a cross-stitch project with different names for Jesus. I want to write so much in my journal. I need to get on top of scripture mastery. I need to find more people to serve. Need to prepare a FHE lesson. I could do some indexing. There’s a bunch of elders I could be writing to.

When you have all sorts of opportunities to learn about the gospel, who has time to complain there’s nothing to do to keep the Sabbath day holy? If only I had three more days a week where I can focus solely on the gospel and not have to worry about homework and stuff. Sunday is a day of rest indeed.

Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy.
Six days thou shalt labor, and do all thy work.
But the seventh day, the Sabbath of the Lord thy God, thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger stranger that is within thy gates.
For in six days the Lord made heaven and the earth, and the sea, and all that in them is; wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath Day, and hallowed it.

Mosiah 13:16-20

If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

Isaiah 58:13-14
