Section 11

Doctrine and Covenants 11:12, 13-14

I opened up my scriptures today and verses thirteen and fourteen caught my eye. I read verse 12 after that and was touched. It was what I needed in the moment. The Spirit can do so much for us. It has felt like a hard time lately and I needed a reminder that The Spirit can do so many great things. I need to rely more on the Lord and remember that Heavenly Father hasn't forgotten me.

From lds.org:
(v. 11 added just for fun)

11 For, behold, it is I that speak; behold, I am the light which shineth in darkness, and by my power I give these words unto thee.

12 And now, verily, verily, I say unto thee, put your trust in thatSpirit which leadeth to do good—yea, to do justly, to walk humbly, to judge righteously; and this is my Spirit.

13 Verily, verily, I say unto you, I will impart unto you of my Spirit, which shall enlighten your mind, which shall fill your soul with joy;

14 And then shall ye know, or by this shall you know, all things whatsoever you desire of me, which are pertaining unto things ofrighteousness, in faith believing in me that you shall receive.
