Progression: you can start from where you are.

Your secret yearnings and tearful pleadings will touch the heart of both the Father and the Son.

To suffer some anxiety, some depression, some disappointment, even some failure is normal.

The ultimate end of all activity in the Church is to see a husband and his wife and their children happy at home, protected by the principles and laws of the gospel, sealed safely in the covenants of the everlasting priesthood. Husbands and wives should understand that their first calling-from which they will never be released-is to one another and then to their children.

Freedom is not a self-preserving gift. It has to be earned, and it has to be protected.

The spiritually starving hesitate to partake of the Spirit like a child's reaction to new and strange food. They must be offered a tiny bite on a spoon.
