Today's Favorite Verse: 3 Nephi 17:10, 18, 20, 21-22

Today's Favorite Verse: 3 Nephi 17:10, 18, 20, 21-22
"And they did all, both they who had been healed and they who were whole, bow down at this feet, and did worship him; and as many as could come for the multitude did kiss his feet, insomuch that they did bathe his feet with their tears.
And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of praying unto the Father, he arose; but so great was the joy of the multitude that they were overcome.
And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them; Blessed are ye because of your faith. And now behold, my joy is full.
And when he said these words, he wept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.
And when he had done this he wept again;"

All I can do is weep the whole time I read this chapter. I cannot pick a favorite verse there are so many sermons inside each one of them. The multitude is weeping and the Lord is weeping. Their joy is full. It has to be all the more tender for the Lord, because of all he had just experienced being rejected by his own and crucified. Now the people on this land receive him as their Savior and King. It just makes me weep and that is all I can say.
