- If only all could read and all could understand! But some could read, and others could hear, and all had access to God through prayer.
- Except for the Atonement of the Holy Redeemer, the demands of justice would prevent every soul born on earth from returning to the presence of God, to partake of His glory and exaltation, for all make mistakes for which we cannot personally appease justice.
- Part of that testing here is to have so many seemingly interesting things to do that we can forget the main purposes for being here. Satan works very hard so that the essential things won't happen.
- Be wise and don't let good things crowd out those that are essential.
- Study the things you do in your discretionary time, that time you are free to control. Do you find that it is centered in those things that are of highest priority and of greatest importance? Or do you unconsciously, consistently fill it with trivia and activities that are not of enduring value nor help you accomplish the purpose for which you came to earth?
- Don't give up what you most want in life for something you think you want now.
- You can progress much more rapidly here on earth with your mortal body in this environment of good and evil than you will as a spirit in the spirit world.
- (They) never set out to be heroes...yet they accomplished heroic things.
- If you will be faithful, you have nothing to fear from the journey. The Lord will take care of his saints.
- Certainly it was hard to walk across a continent to establish a new home in a dry western desert. But who can say if that was any more difficult than is the task of living faithful, righteous lives in today's confusingly sinful world, where the trail is constantly shifting and where divine markers of right and wrong are being replaced by political expediency and diminishing morality.
- We must grasp the torch and run the race.
- There are some who still scorn. Let us live above it. There are still those who regard us as a peculiar people. Let us accept that as a compliment and go forth showing by virtue of our lives the strength and goodness of the wonderful thing in which we believe.
Until you next read these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
