I Urge You To Choose Companions Well

Material Possessions And Honors Of The World Do Not Endure. But Your Union As Wife, Husband, And Family Can. No Sacrifice Is Too Great To Have The Blessings Of An Eternal Marriage. By Making And Keeping Sacred Temple Covenants, We Evidence Our Love For God, For Our Companion, And Our Real Regard For Our Posterity-even Those Yet Unborn. Our Family Is The Focus Of Our Greatest Work And Joy In This Life; So Will It Be Throughout All Eternity.

Our Busy Lives Force Us To Focus On Things We Do From Day To Day. But The Development Of Character Comes Only As We Focus On Who We Really Are.

When Our Hearts Turn To Our Ancestors, Something Changes Inside Us. We Feel Part Of Something Greater Than Ourselves. Our Inborn Yearnings For Family Connections Are Fulfilled When We Are Linked To Our Ancestors.

Be Patient With Yourself. Perfection Comes Not In This Life, But In The Next Life. Don't Demand Things That Are Unreasonable, But Demand Of Yourself Improvement. As You Let The Lord Help You Through That, He Will Make The Difference.

When We Speak Of Faith—the Faith That Can Move Mountains—we Are Not Speaking Of Faith In General But Of Faith In The Lord Jesus Christ. Faith In The Lord Jesus Christ Can Be Bolstered As We Learn About Him And Live Our Religion. The Doctrine Of Jesus Christ Was Designed By The Lord To Help Us Increase Our Faith.
