Latter Day Light DAILY DEVOTIONAL July 2, 2016 Integrity and Truth |
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine and Covenants 124:15 "And again, verily I say unto you, blessed is my servant Hyrum Smith; for I, the Lord, love him because of the integrity of his heart, and because he loveth that which is right before me, saith the Lord." |
QUOTE OF THE DAYHoward W. Hunter "The ability to stand by one's principles, to live with integrity and faith according to one's belief---that is what matters. That devotion to true principle---in our individual lives, in our homes and families, and in all places that we meet and influence other people---that devotion is what God is ultimately requesting of us. . . . If we will be true and faithful to the Lord's principles, then we will always be temple worthy, and the Lord and His holy temples will be the great symbols of our discipleship with Him" ("The Great Symbol of Our Membership," Ensign, October 1994).
