Always keep your eye on the President of the church, and if he ever tells you to do anything, even if it is wrong, and you do it, the lord will bless you for it, but you don't need to worry. The lord will never let his mouthpiece lead the people astray.

The efficacy of our prayers depends on how much we care for one another.

How can we give if there is nothing there?... Support and understanding cannot come from the emotionally starved. Teaching cannot come from the unlearned. And most important of all, spiritual guidance cannot come from the spiritually weak.

Prayer is the instrument of miracles.

This gospel has often been spoken of as a way of life. This however is not quite accurate.

My soul has made its greatest growth as I have been driven to my knees by adversity and affliction.
