3 Behold, thy
He will forgive us of our sins always if we seek repentance. I am an "elect lady" He has called me to do a great work. :) I just have to cultivate and find the talents He has given me to bring souls unto Him and that He may be glorified. :)

I have many questions about where were are suppose to be going and what exactly we are suppose to be doing. How can we live forever or all eternity and I get frustrated that I cannot seem to figure things out either quickly or at all, but this scripture says reminds me that the Lord has not reveled everything to anyone yet. He will eventually but for now I need to let it go and continue working to achieve greatness in His will. :) I need to pray often and have faith. :)
5 And the office of thy calling shall be for a a comfort unto my servant, Joseph Smith, Jun., thy b husband, in his c afflictions, with consoling words, in the spirit of d meekness.
6 And thou shalt go with him at the time of his going, and be unto him for a scribe, while there is no one to be a scribe for him, that I may send my servant, Oliver Cowdery, whithersoever I will.
7 And thou shalt be a ordained under his hand to expound scriptures, and to exhort the church, according as it shall be given thee by my b Spirit.
8 For he shall lay his a hands upon thee, and thou shalt receive the Holy Ghost, and thy time shall be given to writing, and to learning much.
9 And thou needest not fear, for thy a husband shall support thee in the church; for unto them is his b calling, that all things might bec revealed unto them, whatsoever I will, according to their faith.
I will be a comfort to my husband. Alan needs to know I am here for him and will go where he goes and do what he would have me do under the direction of our Heavenly Father. We must read and learn on Christ through the scriptures so we can be more like Him! I will continue to ask Alan for blessing for direction and to feel the Lord close to me and lift me up when I am struggling too much. The blessing will help our children as well. We have the Holy Ghost with us if we will just align our values and goals with the Lord. Alan will in deed help me through whatever the Lord calls me to do. We both have to move forward with faith. :)
10 And verily I say unto thee that thou shalt lay aside the a things of this b world, and c seek for the things of a d better.
This scripture kind of hurts me. I do really still want things of the world, but I know there are better things or more rewarding things to seek after. The worldly things must be used in the service of the Lord! Use my gifts so people can see my light that was given to me by Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
12 For my soul a delighteth in the b song of the c heart; yea, thed song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads.
I love music and if I use the Hymns and Primary songs to heal my heart and sing for my children that it will heal their hearts then we will always be praying and keeping the Spirit of the Lord close to us. This sacred music will help us keep our covenants and guide us in the direction the Lord would have us go. :)
14 Continue in the spirit of meekness, and beware of a pride. Let thy soul delight in thy b husband, and the c glory which shall come upon him.
15 Keep my commandments continually, and a a crown ofb righteousness thou shalt receive. And except thou do this, where I am you c cannot come.
I have to be careful of my thoughts and know that even when we become successful that it is because of the Lord and not because of myself. I have to watch my prideful urges. I must be happy with my husband and enjoy him and all the good things that will come to pass because of his wonderful spirit. I must keep the commandments and those covenants that we made or we will not be able to enter in at the gate. Love the Lord will all you might mind and strength and He will poor out His blessing upon you. Blessed be the Name of the Most High God. The Creator of all living. The One true God. I Love Thee! Please stay with my husband and me to complete the task though has shown us to do. Thank you! In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
