In my study of this one and reading references around, I spent some more time in Joel. The link between Joel 2 and President Holland’s recent comments in the Dominican Republic hit.
Joel 2:28
“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:”
President Holland - (11 November 2024 Social Media Post)
“Whatever you think the church is going to be, it’s going to be a lot more than that. It is the one thing that I know for sure is going to succeed. I’m not sure about economies. I’m not sure about politics. I’m not sure about businesses. I’m not sure about universities or hospitals. I don’t know what’s going to work and what’s going to fail. But I know one thing that’s going to work. And I know one thing that is never, ever, ever going to fail. And it is the retired gospel of Jesus Christ. It is this church, your priesthood, and our destiny. So take the blinders off. “Think outside the box” as we say these days. Don’t just do it because we’ve always done it. Dream dreams and see visions.”
It was a good synchrony in study to see the call from President Holland to fulfill the charge given in Joel and prepare ourselves for the challenges and blessings to come.
Your papers continue to be a joy and a treat to read Leiland. Will never look at Nephi’s confrontation of Laman and Lemuel the same, it’s so apparent now!
Leiland, thank you! Your work is amazing. As always, you have been truly uplifting.
