Nehemiah 8:10
for the joy of the Lord is your strength.
I love this scripture. Is the joy of the Lord our strength, or is our strength joy to the Lord? . . . I feel it is both.
When the sobering gift of growth comes our way, how can we receive it with grace and integrity?
"Endure it well"
12 And there were gathered together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just, who had been faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality;
13 And who had offered sacrifice in the similitude of the great sacrifice of the Son of God, and had suffered tribulation in their Redeemer's name.
14 All these had departed the mortal life, firm in the hope of a glorious resurrection, through the grace of God the Father and his Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
15 I beheld that they were filled with joy and gladness, and were rejoicing together because the day of their deliverance was at hand.
D & C 138: 12-15
