Life is a competition not with others, but with ourselves. We should seek each day to live stronger, better, truer lives; each day to master some weakness of yesterday; each day to repair a mistake; each day to surpass ourselves.

There come to one's soul heavenly thoughts as he joins in heavenly expressions coupled with heavenly melody.

A temple is a place in which those whom He has chosen are endowed with power from on high—a power which enables us to use our gifts and capabilities—to bring to pass our Heavenly Father's purposes in our own lives and the lives of those we love.

I hope that we have grateful hearts for the knowledge that we have and the testimonies we have and for the feelings we have.

God accomplishes His purposes heart to heart.

Take advantage of this great opportunity in your life to live it well, to be good, to have good works, and to influence other people for good.

Those who labor unselfishly in behalf of others, with no thought of remuneration, will be physically and spiritually refreshed and renewed.
