Made White in the Blood of the Lamb

In Revelation 7:9, John describes "a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;"

Verse 13 says, "What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?"

Verse 14 answers, "These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."

See Revelation 7:9, 13-14

It is good to know that if we follow God, we will have tribulation. And that our robes will be made white in the blood of the Lamb.

We have the promise that God's Spirit can be with us always as we repent, as we continue on the covenant path.

We also have good people available to us for fellowship, for friendship, for support.
Art thou a brother or brethren? I salute you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, in token or remembrance of the everlasting covenant, in which covenant I receive you to fellowship, in a determination that is fixed, immovable, and unchangeable, to be your friend and brother through the grace of God in the bonds of love, to walk in all the commandments of God blameless, in thanksgiving, forever and ever. Amen. (D&C 88:133)

When we are in trouble, we have the opportunity to seek out to serve others around us. As we do, God will bless us. He will make our burdens be light.
