There Is No Mortal Man That Is

Mortality Is A School Of Suffering And Trials. We Are Here That We May Be Educated In A School Of Suffering And Of Fiery Trials, Which School Was Necessary For Jesus, Our Elder Brother, Who, The Scriptures Tell Us, ‘was Made Perfect Through Suffering.’ It Is Necessary That We Suffer In All Things, That We May Be Qualified And Worthy To Rule, And Govern All Things, Even As Our Father In Heaven And His Eldest Son, Jesus.

The Idea Is Not To Do Good Because Of The Praise Of Men; But To Do Good Because In Doing Good We Develop Godliness Within Us, And This Being The Case We Shall Become Allied To Godliness, Which Will In Time Become Part And Portion Of Our Being.

There Is A Way By Which Persons Can Keep Their Consciences Clear Before God And Man, And That Is To Preserve Within Them The Spirit Of God, Which Is The Spirit Of Revelation To Every Man And Woman. It Will Reveal To Them, Even In The Simplest Of Matters, What They Shall Do, By Making Suggestions To Them. We Should Try To Learn The Nature Of This Spirit, That We May Understand Its Suggestions, And Then We Will Always Be Able To Do Right. This Is The Grand Privilege Of Every Latter-day Saint.

When You Find Yourselves A Little Gloomy, Look Around You And Find Somebody That Is In A Worse Plight Than Yourself; Go To Him And Find Out What The Trouble Is, Then Try To Remove It With The Wisdom Which The Lord Bestows Upon You; And The First Thing You Know, Your Gloom Is Gone, You Feel Light, The Spirit Of The Lord Is Upon You, And Everything Seems Illuminated.

As Man Now Is, God Once Was; As God Is Now Man May Be.
