SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine & Covenants 138:12-15
"And there were gathered together in one place an innumerable company of the spirits of the just, who had been faithful in the testimony of Jesus while they lived in mortality; and who had offered sacrifice in the similitude of the great sacrifice of the Son of God, and had suffered tribulation in their Redeemer's name. All these had departed the mortal life, firm in the hope of a glorious resurrection, through the grace of God the Father and his Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ. I beheld that they were filled with joy and gladness, and were rejoicing together because the day of their deliverance was at hand."

QUOTE OF THE DAY Heber J. Grant
"There are no people that make the sacrifices that we do, but for us it is not a sacrifice but a privilege??---the privilege of obedience, the privilege of entering into a working partnership with our Father in Heaven and earning the choice blessings promised to those who love Him and keep His commandments" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Heber J. Grant, p. 27).
