When you are faced with an important decision, be sure that your choice will lead you nearer to Christ.
Your future is not determined by the conditions around you. It is determined by your faith, your choices, and your efforts.
Every time we are obedient to the words of the prophets and apostles we reap great blessings. We receive more blessings than we can understand at the time, and we continue to receive blessings long after our initial decision to be obedient.
We must be careful that we don’t resent the very things that help us put on the divine nature.
