🔥READ THIS PART🔥

This scriptures has really stood out to me this week:

James 1

2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 

3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience

4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

'Wanting nothing'. This phrase has been spinning in my head all week. 

To be so swallowed up in the will of the Lord that we no longer even want anything of our own is the goal. This is the difference between sacrifice and consecration.

This is also what it means when Christ says, "Be ye therefore perfect"! (Matthew 5:48, 3 Nephi 12:48) 

Therefore, we should rejoice in tribulation. Rejoice in the testing of our patience, ability to love, and ability to resist temptation 等等 (etc.), for God is giving us the chance to become perfect, 完全 (wan quan), wanting nothing, even as He is. 

Revelations 3

21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

再見!
Sister 吳ardle
