“Behold My Bowels Are Filled with Compassion Towards You”

Brant Gardner

As Jesus examines the people he notices that while they are tired, they are not yet ready for him to leave. There is a difference in our ability to comprehend doctrine and our ability to continue to feel the spirit. There are times when our capacities for reason may succumb to the hour, but our soul’s capacity to soak up the spirit is not at all satiated. Such was the situation for these Saints. They had more to learn, but were at a point where more information might be difficult to process. Nevertheless, they could feel the Spirit present with the Savior, and desired that experience to continue.
