“I Ought to Be Content”

Ed J. Pinegar, Richard J. Allen

Alma repents of his overreaching zeal and glories in being a mere mortal (albeit one of great prophetic gifts). He confirms his gratitude before the Lord just to be able to do his job to the best of his ability. Missionary work is his joy and glory. He also feels joy in the success of others.
