As Man Now Is, God Once Was;

The Time Has Now Come For Every Latter-day Saint ... To Do The Will Of The Lord And To Pay His Tithing In Full. That Is The Word Of The Lord To You.

There Are Some Who Do Not Learn, And Who Do Not Improve As Fast As They Might, Because Their Eyes And Their Hearts Are Not Upon God; They Do Not Reflect Neither Do They Have That Knowledge Which They Might Have; They Miss A Good Deal Which They Might Receive. We Have Got To Obtain Knowledge Before We Obtain Permanent Happiness; We Have Got To Be Wide Awake In The Things Of God.

It Is Our Duty To Try To Be Perfect, … To Improve Each Day, And Look Upon Our Course Last Week And Do Things Better This Week; Do Things Better Today Than We Did Them Yesterday

If A Person Wants To Enjoy The Spirit Of The Lord...always Cultivate A Spirit Of Gratitude. It Is The Duty Of Every Latter-day Saint To Cultivate A Spirit Of Gratitude.

Mortality Is A School Of Suffering And Trials. We Are Here That We May Be Educated In A School Of Suffering And Of Fiery Trials, Which School Was Necessary For Jesus, Our Elder Brother, Who, The Scriptures Tell Us, ‘was Made Perfect Through Suffering.’ It Is Necessary That We Suffer In All Things, That We May Be Qualified And Worthy To Rule, And Govern All Things, Even As Our Father In Heaven And His Eldest Son, Jesus.
