The compelling truth of the Restoration is that the heavens are open. This Church is a Church of revelation. Our challenge is not one in getting the Lord to speak to us. Our challenge is learning to hear what He has to say.

Look to the Lord and not to the world for your ideas and ideals about men and women.

Without the presence of the Spirit, it is impossible to comprehend our personal mission or to have the reassurance that our course is right.

We're not alone--at least, we're alone only if we choose to be alone. We're alone only if we choose to go through life relying solely on our own strength rather than learning to draw upon the power of God.

Am I the woman I think I am, the woman I want to be? More importantly, am I the woman the Savior needs me to be?

Satan is a "roaring lion, [who] walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." And he will devour us unless we "put on the whole armour [or power] of God, that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." (See 1 Peter 5 and Ephesians 6)

Everything that's important - you can take with you.
