to be full of love

Alma instructed his brethren to humble themselves before the Lord, to pray continually about temptation, and be led by the Holy Spirit.  And if they did these three things, they would become "humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering" (Alma 13:28).  In sum, basically, Alma instructs us to humble ourselves, to pray and then to listen as we are led by the Holy Spirit.  Following these three steps will assist us in acquiring the ability to become full of love.  (Paul R. Cheesman, ed, The Book of Mormon: The Keystone Scripture, 1988, 153)
