Selfishness Is The Root Of Great Evil.

Don't Look For A Life Virtually Free From Discomfort, Pain, Pressure, Challenge, Or Grief, For Those Are The Tools A Loving Father Uses To Stimulate Our Personal Growth And Understanding.

Don't Yield To Satan's Lie That You Don't Have Time To Study The Scriptures. Choose To Take Time To Study Them. Feasting On The Word Of God Each Day Is More Important Than Sleep, School, Work, Television Shows, Video Games, Or Social Media. You May Need To Reorganize Your Priorities To Provide Time For The Study Of The Word Of God. If So, Do It!

As You Live High Standards Publicly And Privately, And Even Under Great Pressure Adhere To Them, You Raise The Vision Of Others.

When We Obey The Commandments Of The Lord And Serve His Children Unselfishly, The Natural Consequence Is Power From God—power To Do More Than We Can Do By Ourselves. Our Insights, Our Talents, Our Abilities Are Expanded Because We Receive Strength And Power From The Lord. His Power Is A Fundamental Component To Establishing A Home Filled With Peace.

I Am Convinced That There Is No Simple Formula Or Technique That I Could Give You Or That You Could Give Your Students That Would Immediately Facilitate Mastering The Ability To Be Guided By The Holy Spirit. Nor Do I Believe That The Lord Will Ever Allow Someone To Conceive A Pattern That Would Invariably And Immediately Open The Channels Of Spiritual Communication. We Grow When We Labor To Recognize The Guidance Of The Holy Ghost As We Struggle To Communicate Our Needs To Our Father In Heaven In Moments Of Dire Need Or Overflowing Gratitude.
