Personal Revelation

Personal Revelation

Like the dew from heaven, peaceful solutions and understanding are clearest when I arise, while it is still dark outside and write them down, before they have evaporated from my mind with the commotion of the new day.

Carest Not That We Perish?

On the Sea of Galilee it was already night, but the darkness deepened as clouds occluded the light from the stars of the firmament and fierce winds whipped across the sea. The Lord’s chosen disciples were not out doing things they shouldn’t have been. They weren’t out goofing off or being careless. In fact it was quite the opposite. They were dutifully doing exactly what the Lord had asked them to do and suddenly their very lives were in peril.

The Temple - A Symbol of Our Membership

“I invite the members of the Church to establish the temple of the Lord as the great symbol of their membership. . . . Let us be a temple-attending and a temple-loving people.  Let us hasten to the temple as frequently as time and means and personal circumstances allow.  Let us go not only for our kindred dead, but let us also go for the personal blessing of temple worship”—President Howard W. Hunter

What does it mean to sustain?

Even though I am far away and none will be there to acknowledge my vote, still I raise my arm to the square. Not for the prophet's sake, not for anyone else's sake but for my own. I make this distinction because of the nature of the sustaining vote. It is not so much a public demonstration as it is a personal declaration of a person’s desire to follow the Lord and to have no other gods before Him.
