I was reading in Alma 38 this morning and some verses stuck out to me. Alma 38:2-5
http://scriptures.lds.org/en/search?search=Alma+38%3A2-5

In these verses I felt it expressed Heavenly Father's feelings for me as I've kept my oil filled with oil to be prepared or as I have strived to keep it filled with oil. There is definitely room for improvement!
