Desire to Be Blessed in Order to Pay Debts — Joseph Smith Journal (September 22, 1835)
My heart is full of desire to day, to be blessed of the God, of Abraham; with prosperity, untill I will be able to pay all my depts; for it is the delight of my soul to be honest. Oh Lord that thou knowes right well! help me and I will give to the poor. Oh Lord that thou knowes right well! help me and I will give to the poor.
