19 For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the Lord is one eternal round.I like that Nephi adds the word “diligently” into the formula of seeking and finding. This implies much more than merely seeking. It implies that you may not get your answer on your first attempt, that you must exercise faith to get results. But after the trial of faith, the Lord opens even the mysteries of Godhood to us. This is part of being unchangeable and consistent.

- D&C 42:61
