If the last time you read the scriptures was the last time you ate... How many of you would be dead?

How big would the scriptures be if you removed what you didn't obey?

It is the first principle of the gospel to know for a certainty the character of God, and to know that we may converse with Him as one man converses with another.

Joseph Smith

How much we believe we need God will determine how much we seek after him to be part of our lives.

Scott Strong

The early and familiar forms of selfishness are: building up self at the expense of others, claiming or puffing credit, being glad when others go wrong, resenting the genuine successes of others, preferring public vindication to private reconciliation and taking 'advantage of one because of his words' " ...Selfishness likewise causes us to be discourteous, disdainful, and self entered while withholding from others needed goods, praise, and recognition as we selfishly pass them by and notice them not.  Later on come rudeness brusqueness, and the further flexing of elbows. "

Maxwell
April 99 Conference, pg. 23

Obedience is the first law of heaven, the cornerstone upon which all righteousness and progression rest.
