Jesus Christ, the Son of God, invited us to “Learn of Me”. (See Matthew 11:28-30). How might you learn best of this Christ, your Savior?

In The Book of Mormon—Another Testament of Jesus Christ, Nephi quotes the great words of Isaiah, who prophesies of things associated with the coming of the Savior again to the Earth.

“And it shall come to pass in the last days, when the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains⁠, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it.

And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.” (2 Nephi 12:2,3)

Isaiah invites us to choose to make our journey to the “mountain of the Lord” a priority in life because of what we will learn of Christ there. Only through Christ can we return to someday live with our Heavenly Parents. We can prepare for that education by studying the relationship between Christ and the temple covenants that we make and keep. We can heed what the Holy Ghost teaches us about serving in the name of Christ those living on earth and in the spirit world while we are in the House of the Lord. I know as I do these small and simple things I learn of His ways of experiencing joy and healing. Through Heavenly Father’s love which abundant in the temple, I feel a quiet confidence to walk in His covenant path.

I invite all to prepare for the planned temple that will be coming to Wisconsin soon and by so doing learn best through the Lamb of God more of our sacred relationship with our Heavenly Parents and of God’s glorious Plan for our Happiness.
