Our earliest efforts will be heard with joy by our Heavenly Father, however they are phrased.

A good marriage does not require a perfect man or a perfect woman. It only requires a man and a woman committed to strive together toward perfection.

Let us give thanks for what we are and for the circumstances God has given us for our personal journey through mortality.

I say, choose faith. Choose faith over doubt, choose faith over fear, choose faith over the unknown and the unseen, and choose faith over pessimism.

Become what our Heavenly Father desires you to become.

We are cast as combatants in the war between truth and error. There is no middle ground. We must stand up for truth, even while we practice tolerance and respect for beliefs and ideas different from our own and for the people who hold them.

The commandment to avoid contention applies to those who are right as well as those who are wrong.
