Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program.

If we live in such a way that the considerations of eternity press upon us, we will make better decisions. Perhaps this is why President Brigham Young once said that if he could do but one thing to bless the Saints, he believed it would be to give them eyes with which to see things as they are.

You women are daughters of God. You are precious. You are made in the image of our Heavenly Mother.

Life gives to all the choice. You can satisfy yourself with mediocrity if you wish. You can be common, ordinary, dull, colorless, or yyou can channel your life so that it will be clean, vibrant, useful, progressive, colorful, and rich.

It is in the doing that the real blessing comes. Do it! That's our motto.

Sickness sometimes is a great blessing. People become angels through sickness.

Young men do not usually become inactive in the Church because they are given too many significant things to do.
