QUOTE OF THE DAY Wilford Woodruff |
“The Lord never created this world at random; he has never done any of his work at random. The earth was created for certain purposes; and one of these purposes was its final redemption and the establishment of his government and kingdom upon it in the latter days, to prepare it for the reign of the Lord Jesus Christ, whose right it is to reign. That set time has come, that dispensation is before us, we are living in the midst of it” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Wilford Woodruff, p. 27). |

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY April 8 |

1843 - The Prophet Joseph Smith speaks at the Saturday Morning session of General Conference in Nauvoo. He asked the crowd to exercise faith and pray that the Lord would calm the wind and strengthen his lungs so that he could speak to them. Among other things, he taught, “In knowledge there is power. God has more power than all other beings, because he has greater knowledge; and hence he knows how to subject all other beings to Him. He has power over all” (History of the Church, 5:340).

We love him, because he first loved us. (1 John 4:19)
In the October 1999 General Conference, Elder Neal A. Maxwell spoke about lessons we can learn from Laman and Lemuel. "Laman and Lemuel's own lack of character kept them from understanding the perfect character of God! No wonder the Prophet Joseph Smith said, 'If men do not comprehend the character of God, they do not comprehend themselves' (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 343).
