Personally, I am enthusiastic about the future. You can be too. You are living in the most exciting period of time in history. Many reasons could be cited for that optimism.

You can receive ordinances and covenants that when righteously lived assure true happiness and significant attainment.

There are powerful emotions that bring two people together in wonderful harmony in a marriage. Satan knows this, and would tempt you to try these emotions outside of marriage. Do not stir emotions meant to be used only in marriage.

A knowledge of truth is of little value unless lived in full measure.
