Perhaps when we face our maker, we will not be asked, 'How many positions did you hold,' but rather, 'How many people did you help?
Thomas S. MonsonThis will equally apply to every Latter-day Saint. Salvation is an individual operation.
Thomas S. MonsonOur Heavenly Father can appreciate our love for Him by how well we serve Him and how well we serve our fellowmen.
Thomas S. MonsonThe person who is working on his or her family history fits the description of one who is fulfilling his or her duty. I know the effort, I know the expense. I know the difficulties through which one may go to uncover one name. I know our Heavenly Father is aware of these efforts. And those for whom we perform sacred ordinances are aware of our efforts. Oftentimes, in a miraculous way, there shall appear before us a clear pathway through a field of turbulence.
Thomas S. Monson
