Into the Unknown

I've been thinking a lot about my move lately.  It's such an extreme change and more than a bit scary, but I know that things will work out for best because of the personal revelation I've received on the matter.  Anyway, a scripture keeps coming to mind when I think about this move: 1 Nephi 4:6 "And I was led by the Spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which I should do."  That certainly fits me right now since I've been told to move and that further instruction would follow.  But, thanks to the wonder that is cross-referencing, there's actually a scripture that fits a bit better and goes a bit more in depth.  Doctrine & Covenants 11 (If you only want the bare-bones of the scripture, skip to highlighted portion):

6 Now, as you have asked, behold, I say unto you, keep my commandments, and seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion.

7 Seek not for riches but for wisdom; and, behold, the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto you, and then shall you be made rich. Behold, he that hath eternal life is rich.

8 Verily, verily, I say unto you, even as you desire of me so it shall be done unto you; and, if you desire, you shall be the means of doing much good in this generation.

9 Say nothing but repentance unto this generation. Keep my commandments, and assist to bring forth my work, according to my commandments, and you shall be blessed.

10 Behold, thou hast a gift, or thou shalt have a gift if thou wilt desire of me in faith, with an honest heart, believing in the power of Jesus Christ, or in my power which speaketh unto thee;

11 For, behold, it is I that speak; behold, I am the light which shineth in darkness, and by my power I give these words unto thee.

12 And now, verily, verily, I say unto thee, put your trust in that Spirit which leadeth to do good—yea, to do justly, to walk humbly, to judge righteously; and this is my Spirit.

13 Verily, verily, I say unto you, I will impart unto you of my Spirit, which shall enlighten your mind, which shall fill your soul with joy;

14 And then shall ye know, or by this shall you know, all things whatsoever you desire of me, which are pertaining unto things of righteousness, in faith believing in me that you shall receive.

The scriptures can help be a lens to show us things we already know.  None of the scriptures I've quoted here revealed any new information to me, but it did bring comfort to me.  I am still nervous about the future, maybe even a little bit scared, but I know that the Lord has given me an instruction for my benefit and, even though it's frightening, I will gladly obey.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a new journey to begin.
