Pray Individual & Family Study (Scripture Study (Education) You are a child of our Heavenly Father. He is your heavenly parent. Speak with Him. Each night and morning get on your knees and express unto Him the gratitude of your heart. Speak of the blessings which you desire and need. First, study the scriptures. You might only read portions of the Old Testament, but it contains great lessons. The New Testament is a gold mine. It contains the four Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John as well as the acts of the Apostles and other writings. Try reading just on of the Gospels perhaps the book of John. When you are through with that, pick up the Book of Mormon. Resolve now, while you are young, that you will get all the education you can. We live in a highly competitive age, and it will only grow worse. Education is the key that will unlock the door of opportunity.
Pay Tithing Attend Church Meetings Don t Procrastinate Glorious is the promise of the Lord concerning those who pay their tithes.while tithing is paid with money, more importantly it is paid with faith. I have never met an individual who paid and honest tithe who complained about it. Rather, he put his trust in the Lord, and the Lord never failed him. Attend your sacrament meetings. There is no substitute for partaking of the sacrament of the Lord s Supper. It is a solemn, sacred, and wonderful undertaking to be able to partake of the bread and water in remembrance of the body and blood of the Savior of mankind. There is no other event in human history as significant as the atoning sacrifice of our divine Redeemer. None else compares with it. Without it life would be meaningless. It would be a dead-end journey. With it we are assured of eternal life. Death is not the end, but rather a passing on to a more glorious existence. All of this is symbolized in the partaking of the sacraments. All other items in our meetings ore of lesser importance compared with partaking the emblems of the sacrifice of our Lord. A morning prayer and an early search in the scriptures to know what we should do for the Lord can set the course of a day. We know which task, of all those we might choose, matters most to God and therefore to us. I have learned such a prayer is always answered if we ask and ponder with childlike submission, ready to act without delay to perform even the most humble service. -Elder Henry B. Eyring This Day Sunday Afternoon Session
Serve Others Choose the Right Set & Achieve Goals As you serve Him, you will come to know better the voice by which you shall be called.

I pray for that benediction on this day, on every day, and on our lives. -Elder Henry B. Eyring This Day Sunday Afternoon Session The Light of Christ helps us to discern right from wrong.

The Tongue of Angels Follow the Prophet In this long eternal quest to be more like our Savior, may we try to be perfect in at least this one way now by offending not in word, or more positively put, by speaking with a new tongue, the tongue of angels. Our words, like our deeds, should be filled with faith and hope and charity, the three great Christian imperatives so desperately needed in the world today. - Elder Jeffrey R. Holland The Tongue of Angels Sat. Morn. Session Go forward in faith and righteousness, following the leadership of our prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley.
