"And there was no inequality among them; the Lord did pour out his Spirit on all the face of the land to prepare the minds of the children of men, or to prepare their hearts to receive the word which should be taught among them at the time of his coming—
That they might not be hardened against the word, that they might not be unbelieving, and go on to destruction, but that they might receive the word with joy, and as a branch be grafted into the true vine, that they might enter into the rest of the Lord their God."
Alma 16:16-17
I love the idea, not only of banishing inequality, which is amazing, but also of receiving the word with joy, and cleansing our minds and our hearts so that we don't have anyhing impeding our happiness. :)
Today, let's think about what might be keeping us from feeling the spirit, and participating in the joy of God's word, his promises, and our faith in him... and let's try to cut down on those things that are getting in the way of joy, with God's help and advice.
