SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine & Covenants 4:1-7 "Now behold, a marvelous work is about to come forth among the children of men. Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day. Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work; for behold the field is white already to harvest; and lo, he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul; and faith, hope, charity and love, with an eye single to the glory of God, qualify him for the work. Remember faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, brotherly kindness, godliness, charity, humility, diligence. Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Amen."

QUOTE OF THE DAY Wilford Woodruff "I think we do not realize the magnitude of this work. It is a hard matter for us to comprehend the responsibility that we are under to God, to the heavens, to the dead, as well as the living of our fellow men" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Wilford Woodruff, p. 255).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY February 17 1847 - Brigham Young, as President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, has a dream at Council Bluffs, Iowa. Joseph Smith appeared to him and asks him to tell the Saints "to be humble and faithful, and be sure to keep the Spirit of the Lord and it will lead them right. Be careful and not turn away the small still voice; it will teach them what to do and where to go; it will yield the fruits of the kingdom. . . . Tell the brethren that if they will follow the spirit of the Lord, they will go right" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young, p. 41). Click Here for More! |
