SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Proverbs 31:25-30

"Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised."
 
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph Smith

"If you live up to these principles, how great and glorious will be your reward in the celestial kingdom! If you live up to your privileges, the angels cannot be restrained from being your associates. Females, if they are pure and innocent, can come in the presence of God; for what is more pleasing to God than innocence; you must be innocent, or you cannot come up before God: if we would come before God, we must keep ourselves pure, as He is pure" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith, p.454).

 

"How far is it to Chicago?" Nathan asked.
"It's about 1,500 miles from here, so you've got quite a drive ahead of you."
Nathan shrugged. "This is for Marie. It'll be worth it."
