D&C 136, JS Matthew 1

38 Which foundation he did lay, and was faithful; and I took him to myself.
39 Many have marveled because of his death; but it was needful that he should seal his testimony with his blood, that he might be honored and the wicked might be condemned.
40 Have I not delivered you from your enemies, only in that I have left a witness of my name?

I have been delivered of my enemies. This is a promise that is made to me in my patriarchal blessing. I will be protected from the things that wish to harm me.


JS Matthew

47 But know this, if the good man of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to have been broken up, but would have been ready.
48 Therefore be ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of Man cometh.
49 Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

This is a good reminder. I need to think of these things more often. Lay up treasures in heaven and don't worry so much about the stuff down here!
