SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Mosiah 3:19
"For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father."

QUOTE OF THE DAY Joseph Fielding Smith

We have greater light than the world has, and the Lord expects more of us than he does of them" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Fielding Smith, p. 242). |
