"And behold, all that he requires of you is to keep his commandments; and he has promised you that if ye would keep his commandments ye should prosper in the land; and he never doth vary from that which he hath said; therefore, if ye do keep his commandments he doth bless you and prosper you."
Mosiah 2:22
I love King Benjamin here, reminding us that we make the gospel more complicated than it needs to be. Blessings of course doesn't mean lives void of trial, because blessings are often things that help us to grow, and that requires sometimes uncomfortable or painful change. But the priciple is solid, and the blessings sure. If we do our part, God never fails to do his. Unlike us, he always, always keeps his word.
Today, let's look to him and work to do as the Lord asks.
