Satan knows that youth is the springtime of life when all things are new and young people are most vulnerable.

Young people, you need the wisdom of age, just as some of us older ones need your enthusiasm for life.

You are the one who must decide whose thoughts you will entertain. You are free to choose-but you are not free to alter the consequences of those choices. You will be what you think about what you consistently allow to occupy the stage of your mind.

We can choose to humble ourselves by receiving counsel and chastisement, . . . by forgiving those who have offended us, . . . by rendering selfless service. . . .

You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible!

There are blessings in being close to the soil, in raising your own food even if it is only a garden in your yard and a fruit tree or two. Those families will be fortunate who, in the last days, have an adequate supply of food because of their foresight and ability to produce their own.

The great task of life is to learn the will of the Lord and then do it.
