| SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Alma 37:13 |
|
| "O remember, remember, my son Helaman, how strict are the commandments of God. And he said: If ye will keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land---but if ye keep not his commandments ye shall be cut off from his presence." |
|
| QUOTE OF THE DAY Gordon B. Hinckley |
| "No other written testament so clearly illustrates the fact that when men and nations walk in the fear of God and in obedience to his commandments, they prosper and grow, but when they disregard him and his word, there comes a decay which, unless arrested by righteousness, leads to impotence and death” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Gordon B. Hinckley, p. 229). |
