D&C 4
This section is widely used among the missionaries and I fear that it had become boxed in to the missionary section of my brain. As I read/recited it this morning I realized that it is totally general and not limited to missionary work at all. It applies to any who would “embark in the service of God” and the message is that we cannot expect success if we engage tepidly. If we will engage with out whole souls we will find success. I think that means that we have to be willing to go where the Lord call us and not limit our service to whatever areas we latch onto ourselves. It means that we embark in the service of God, not simply the service of the missionary department, or the temple department, or the scouts.
