"And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments, shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones;
And shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures;
And shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint."
Doctrine and Covenants 89:18-20
I love that the blessings here are physical, mental, and spiritual. One of the greatest blessings that the Lord has given us are our bodies, and the chance to integrate our spirits with a physical aspect that also becomes a part of us... learning how to navigate that joining is part of what earth life is about. We learn how physical and spiritual relate to each other, and how to make a whole from disparate parts of ourselves that want different things. We learn to follow Christ's example and to follow God's advice not just in philosophical ways, but in actual day to day living.
Today, let's put effort into learning how to be more obedient and tap into blessings that the Lord still has in store for us, in so many different areas.
