The ideal God holds for us is to form families in the way most likely to lead to happiness and away from sorrow.

Because the Lord hears their cries and feels your deep compassion for them, He has from the beginning of time provided ways for His disciples to help. He has invited His children to consecrate their time, their means, and themselves to join with Him in serving others.

God loves his children more than any earthly parent, so think what your kindness to his children means to him.

The thirst for education that comes with the change the gospel brings can be a blessing or a curse, depending on our motives.

Our human tendency is to be impatient with the person who cannot see the truth that is so plain to us. We must be careful that our impatience is not interpreted as condemnation or rejection.

Now, I testify it is a small voice. It whispers, not shouts. And so you must be very quiet inside. That is why you may wisely fast when you want to listen. And that is why you will listen best when you feel, "Father, thy will, not mine, be done." You will have a feeling of "I want what you want." Then, the still small voice will seem as if it pierces you. It may make your bones to quake. More often it will make your heart burn within you, again softly, but with a burning which will lift and reassure.

Logical thinking will not be enough to get answers to the questions that matter most in life. We need revelation from God.
