I am so grateful for this scripture that invites us to learn of Jesus Christ. This scripture has been one of my favorites for a long time. I love learning.
"Learn of me, and listen to my words;
walk in the meekness of my Spirit,
and you shall have peace in me"
(D&C 19:23).
Learning for me is fun. I love reading new things and then doing them so that I really learn and know the information and how to apply it. This is how we also learn of Christ. We need to read His words in the scriptures and read what prophets have taught and testified about Christ. We then get to "do" it by walking the walk (see 1 John 2:26; 2 Nephi 31:12-13) and not just talking the talk.
Christ wants us to learn all about Him, His ways, His behavior, His actions. As we do this we "shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ", and "grace and peace" shall be "multiplied" (2 Peter 1:8 (2-9)). That's exactly what He promises- "you shall have peace in Me" (D&C 19:23).
That's pretty awesome stuff to learn!
