QUOTE OF THE DAY
John Taylor

LIBRARY: His Return: Chapter 10: The Return of Brother Joseph

"Suddenly the Spirit of God came upon me, and filled my heart with joy and gladness indescribable; and while the spirit of revelation glowed in my bosom with as visible a warmth and gladness as if it were fire, the Spirit said unto me, 'Lift up your head and rejoice.
