What does it mean to pour out your soul to God?

Thomas R. Valletta

“There are moments that matter, occasions when a supplicant is poignantly aware of the need for divine direction. Though we are continually dependent on the light of heaven to illuminate our paths, there are occasions that require a sure answer, occasions in which we ‘pour out our whole souls’ in prayer—we implore with an intensity and petition with a passion. Even our Master, at the time of his greatest test, ‘prayed more earnestly’ (Luke 22:44)” (McConkie and Millet, Doctrinal Commentary, 2:295).
