Hello everyone. My name is Hank Smith. I'm the host of a podcast called Follow Him. I'm here with my co-host the amazing John by the way. Hi John.

Hi Hank.

We do a little clip each week called Follow Him Favorites.

This week, John, the sections of the doctrine of covenants were studying our section 67 through 70.

So you have a lot to choose from here when it comes to sections.

So give us your Follow Him favorit for this lesson.

I will happily do that. I love the way section 67 starts out.

Behold and harken O ye elders of my church who have assembled yourselves together.

And we all know that this is for all of us now. It was specific to them, but what he says to them, he's saying to us,

listen to this part, whose prayers I have heard and whose hearts I know.

And isn't that comforting? He hears our prayers. And if you mess up, you can say, Heavenly Father, you know my heart.

I didn't mean to do that. That wasn't what, and you know my heart. And there's such great comfort in that whose prayers I've heard and whose hearts I know.

And whose desires come up before me. Yeah, isn't that nice? You know my heart.

And that's a great comfort to know that because I think a lot of us make mistakes, but we didn't mean to, you know.

And the Lord understands that I think, isn't there a part in the doctrine of covenants where the Lord says,

I will judge you according to your works and the desires of your hearts.

It's in 46, I think. And then I want to go to the, that's the first verse, the last verse of 67, verse 14, first phrase there,

let not your minds turn back. And I think that what's right in front of us is the now, and we can think about the now,

but when we look at the past, that's called regret. And I think the Lord saying here, don't regret the past.

Let not your minds turn back. The Lord always wants to us to look forward and to move forward and not dwell on the past,

because he's forgiving and, but we keep moving forward. So I love that phrase. Let not your minds turn back.

We can really beat ourselves up over the past sometimes.
