Today's Favorite Verse: 1 Chronicles 16:29
"Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness."
I really liked the sound of worshipping the Lord in the "beauty of holiness". After pondering on it I looked to see if anything was written about this. I found this general conference talk that expressed what I was thinking perfectly.
"I see the beauty of holiness in sisters whose hearts are centered on all that is good, who want to become more like the Savior. They offer their whole soul, heart, might, mind, and strength to the Lord in the way that they live every day. Holiness is in the striving and the struggle to keep the commandments and to honor the covenants we have made with God. Holiness is making the choices that will keep the Holy Ghost as our guide. Holiness is setting aside our natural tendencies and becoming “a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord.” “Every moment of [our lives] must be holiness to the Lord."
(Carol F. McConkie, "The Beauty of Holiness", April 2017 General Conference)
