SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Moroni 7:40-41 "And again, my beloved brethren, I would speak unto you concerning hope. How is it that ye can attain unto faith, save ye shall have hope? And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise."

QUOTE OF THE DAY Ezra Taft Benson "We must be careful, as we seek to become more and more godlike, that we do not become discouraged and lose hope. Becoming Christlike is a lifetime pursuit and very often involves growth and change that is slow, almost imperceptible. The scriptures record remarkable accounts of men whose lives changed dramatically, in an instant . . . Such astonishing examples of the power to change even those steeped in sin give confidence that the Atonement can reach even those deepest in despair" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Ezra Taft Benson, p. 84-85).

Humor - Youth A stake president took Uncle Golden aside down in Salina [Utah], and said, "Brother Kimball, you've got to talk to the youth. I can't send them on missions, they're swearing too much!" Golden wasn't sure he'd heard right. "You want me to talk to them?" The stake president explained that they might listen to someone who spoke their language, so to speak. So Golden gathered them all together and said, "I understand you brethren are not going to be called on missions unless you can give up your swearing. You can do it. Hell, I did." Click Here! |
