SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine and Covenants 38:39 | |
“And if ye seek the riches which it is the will of the Father to give unto you, ye shall be the richest of all people, for ye shall have the riches of eternity; and it must needs be that the riches of the earth are mine to give; but beware of pride, lest ye become as the Nephites of old.” Click Here! | |
QUOTE OF THE DAY Ezra Taft Benson | “Pride is characterized by ‘What do I want out of life?’ rather than by ‘What would God have me do with my life?’ It is self-will as opposed to God’s will. It is the fear of man over the fear of God. “Humility responds to God’s will —to the fear of His judgments and to the needs of those around us. To the proud, the applause of the world rings in their ears; to the humble, the applause of heaven warms their hearts” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Ezra Taft Benson, p. 229).
