"... we will move together in power to go wherever God would have us go and to become what he wants us to be."
-Henry B. Eyring "Our Hearts Knit as One"

You know, it sounds like we're all supposed to be friends. I've chosen to focus on loving everyone for this semester because I think that's something that we can all forget easily. We're supposed to be friends. Enemies aren't supposed to be made within a ward. Judgement shouldn't be made whether or not your neighbor is wearing the latest style. Who are we to judge? We are no where perfect either. We are all in the same boat trying to get to the same place. Lets be friends.
"Revelation is the only way we can know how to follow the will of the Lord together. It requires light from above. The Holy Ghost will testify to our hearts, and the hearts of those gathered around us, what He would have us do. And it is by keeping His commandments that we can have our hearts knit together as one."
-Henry B. Eyring "Our Hearts Knit as One"
"He cannot grant it to us as individuals. The joy of unity He wants so much to give us is not solitary. We must seek it and qualify for it with others. It is not surprising then that God urges us to gather so that He can bless us. He wants us to gather into families."

Contention departs our homes and our lives as we strive to live these Christlike attributes. “And ye shall also forgive one another your trespasses; for verily I say unto you, he that forgiveth not his neighbor’s trespasses when he says that he repents, the same hath brought himself under condemnation.”

- Juan A. Uceda of the Seventy
