Righteousness Has Never Precluded Adversity.

One Who Lays Claim To Special Privilege Through The Priesthood Doesn't Understand The Nature Of His Authority.

The Family Is Not Just The Basic Unit Of Society; It Is The Basic Unit Of Eternity.

We Can Become The Masters Of Our Own Destinies By Practicing Self-discipline And By Setting Worthy Goals That Will Lead To Higher Ground So That We Can Become What Our Heavenly Father Wants Us To Become.

My Dear Young Women, With All My Heart I Urge You Not To Look To Contemporary Culture For Your Role Models And Mentors. Please Look To Your Faithful Mothers For A Pattern To Follow. Model Yourselves After Them, Not After Celebrities Whose Standards Are Not The Lord's Standards And Whose Values May Not Reflect An Eternal Perspective. Look To Your Mother.

The Lord Is In Control. He Knows The End From The Beginning. He Has Given Us Adequate Instruction That, If Followed, Will See Us Safely Through Any Crisis. His Purposes Will Be Fulfilled, And Someday We Will Understand The Eternal Reasons For All Of These Events. Therefore, Today We Must Be Careful To Not Overreact, Nor Should We Be Caught Up In Extreme Preparations, But What We Must Do Is Keep The Commandments Of God And Never Loose Hope!
