Jumping into the Gathering. This is the first time we see the Kirtland Era referenced. I am most excited to talk about the time that prophets have foretold: THE GATHERING. The Saints are asked to do tough things. Like us we are asked to follow the Lord. I love how Jesus introduces himself here and we can rest assured, He is with us.

We often think of the last words of Christ on the Cross as sad, despairing, and signs of abandonment. I think there may be more here. Jesus quotes from Psalm 22. I think this is a response to the laments given by thousands over the years. The Lord responds that He is with us, we are never forsaken or alone. He suffers with us and for us. He has risen and we can, too.

I often forget how amazing it is that God speaks to us today! These sections remind us of them many, many ways God seeks to communicate to His prophet and to us! The Spirit of Revelation is an amazing gift and one I love to learn more about - These sections give us a wonderful opportunity to do so. From seer stones to dreams, peace in our hearts, to using our intellect, God seeks to communicate.

This is a short but VERY powerful scripture retelling an amazing event. The prophecy of the Restoration of the Covenant, as Malachi, Isaiah, Joel, Amos, and Act (and Matt 17) in the visitation of Moroni in September 1823. Join me as we jump into what happened and why Moroni repeats THESE verses to the Young Prophet Joseph.
