Section 84

This revelation on the Priesthood was given to Joseph Smith as missionaries returned from their missions. In this section it says that in order for a priesthood holder to use the priesthood, they must be worthy and have authority. I thought about how this applies to me; in order for me to feel the Spirit and bless the lives of others, I need to be worthy and be in a place that the Spirit can be.

It is amazing how real God's power is and how He can give some power to priesthood holders to perform miracles and spread the Gospel. This work must be pretty important if God does so much to help us further it. He provides for the holders of His priesthood, and will "go before [their] face."

Another thing that I got out of this section was that the church needs everyone. It needs all parts of the priesthood. One is not better than another, and we need all of the parts in order to function. I really like vs. 106 that says if you are strong, take along those who are weak so that they can be strong also. This is my purpose in life; when I have a strong testimony or a special talent, gift, or ability, I need to share it so others may be blessed and strengthened also.
