Section 101:23-42

Faith Live By Faith, Health Body and Spirit, Joy the Finding Of, Questions in the Gospel,

V’s 26-34 tells us some of the things that will come when the Lord comes and all the earth shall see Him and ALL questions shall be answered. It is in these verses that the Lord catagorizes all the questions that will be answered. These verses prove to me that there ARE unanswerable questions for us now—and that’s okay with me—for how else would we be able to live by faith.

We spend a lot of time and effort each day to feed our bodies—how much time to we devote to feeding our spirit? 36-38: “36…in me your joy is full. 37. Therefore, care not for the body…but care for the soul [the soul is our body AND our spirit], and for the life of the soul. 38. And seek the face of the Lord always, that in patience ye may possess your souls, and ye shall hve eternal life.” Feeding and nourishing our soul [our body AND our spirit] that is what we must be sure to do. It takes time to get your body healthy again after a disease—it also takes time to get our spirits healthy. Let us have patience and watchfulness in this most important endeavor.  Then in 42, the Lord gives us another important clue for the finding of joy: “42. He that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that abseth himself shall be exalted.” Basically, to me that says: Don’t work for public recognition, work for one another.”
