As you trust Him, seek and follow His will, you will receive blessings that your finite mind cannot understand here on earth.

As you willingly obey, receive, and honor the ordinances and covenants of that holy plan, you can have the greatest measure of satisfaction in this life. Yes, even times of overpowering happiness.
