Section 111
The
Savior directs Joseph to try “plan B” in his visit to Salem. Joseph was hoping to find some relief for the
debts the church had incurred. No
financial help was forthcoming, but the Lord instructs Joseph to seek for
spiritual treasures. He had prepared
many souls for the coming of the Gospel and wanted Joseph and subsequent
missionaries to seek these individuals out.
Being
able to discover that quite often the Lord wants us to “cast our nets” on the
other side of the boat; he is pleased when we set out in a direction on our
own, but then bend to his direction. We
call this “plan B” or “but if not” thinking.
