Ether 10
28 And never could be a people more blessed than were they, and more prospered by the hand of the Lord. And they were in a land that was choice above all lands, for the Lord had spoken it.

The chapter is consistent with the rest of Ether. Power transfers are the norm, periods of wickedness and then righteousness and the accompanying destruction or prosperity to coincide with each.

Be Not Moved! - Elaine S. Dalton
Now the moral and ending of this love story: Rebekah was prepared and worthy to make and keep sacred covenants and to become a covenant wife of Isaac. She did not have to wait and prepare herself. Prior to her departure from her family, she was given a blessing, and the words are stirring to me, for she was promised that she would become “the mother of thousands of millions.”18 But the best part of this love story is when Rebekah first saw Isaac and he first saw her. It doesn’t say this in theBible, but I think it was love at first sight! For “virtue loveth virtue; [and] light cleaveth unto light.”19 When Isaac went out to meet the caravan, Rebekah “lighted off [her] camel.”20 And then it says, “And he loved her.”

Young women, generations are depending on the choices you make, your purity, and your worthy lives. Be not moved. You have a great destiny before you. This is your moment! I truly believe that one virtuous young woman, led by the Spirit, can change the world!

Is this my moment? Did I freak out for nothing or am I going to have to do this quickly too? Time will tell. I am prepared spiritually although mentally this is going to require a leap of faith. NOT exactly how I imagined this happening but again I'm not the one that gets to initiate it. I REALLY like that!!!
