The Savior has taught that whosoever drinketh
of the water that I shall give, shall never thirst.
For it shall be in him, a well of water
springing up into everlasting life.
Fully understood and embraced, the gospel of Jesus Christ
heals broken hearts, infuses meaning into lives,
binds loved ones together with ties that transcend mortality,
and bring to life a sublime joy.
President Lorenzo Snow said, "The Lord has not
given us to the gospel that we go
around mourning all the days of our lives."
Close quote.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is not
a religion of mourning and gloom.
The faith of our fathers is one of hope and joy.
It is not a gospel of chains, but a gospel of wings.
To embrace fully is to be filled with it and with wonder
and to walk with an inner fire.
Do you seek peace of mind?
Drink deeply of living waters.
Do you seek forgiveness, peace, understanding, and joy?
Drink deeply of living waters.
The abundant life is a spiritual life.
Too many sit at the banquet table
of the gospel of Jesus Christ and merely nibble
at the feast placed before them.
They go through the motions, attending their meetings,
perhaps, glancing at scriptures, repeating familiar prayers,
but their hearts are far away.
If they are not honest, they would
admit to being more interested in the latest neighborhood
rumors, stock market trends, and their favorite TV
show than they are about the supernal wonders
and sweet ministerings of the Holy Spirit.
Do wish to partake of this living water and experience
that divine well spring up within you to everlasting life?
Then be not afraid.
Believe with all your hearts.
Develop an unshakable faith in the Son of God.
Let your hearts reach out in earnest prayer.
Fill your minds with knowledge of him.
Forsake your weaknesses.
Walk in holiness and harmony with the commandments.
Drink deeply of the living waters
of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
