Uctdorf - great talk on progressing in the light
Anderson - Preach the gospel to the whole earth. Is this possible? Signs and miracles were following the faith of the believers.
JS time - voice of warning to all people. Was it possible? Will miracles follow them? 1000's baptized in England. 45 preachers were baptized.
We are few in number. We are eyewitnesses of Daniels prophecy - cut without hands.
Young men and women moved forward - 18 year old men and 19 year old women submitted apps all within five days!
Growing number of missionaries throughout the world.
We follow the Saviors mandate, go you forth to all nations, preaching the gospel. We are witnessing the miracles of the Lord as well. We are part of this unfolding miracle. Paint missionary work on your heart. We all have a contribution to make to this miracle.
** pray for areas of the world where are influence is limited.
** pray for opportunities to share the gospel.
** always be ready to have an answer
hold up your light that it may shine.
Promise: pray to know who to speak to. Faith will overcome doubt.
"come and see" how I live, come and see the Christ. We have found the Christ.
Some will come and some will not. Invite those to come back and see once more. A person's lack of interest need not diminish our love.
** share your faith online more.
** create a blog
This isn't missionary work, this is missionary fun!
** keep the full time missionaries in your thoughts and prayers.
Moxambique - marriage - dowry - expense - can't afford - legally marry - they were married on Friday and baptized on Saturday.
This work is a miracle.

Okay to try to make mistakes, to try, to do insignificant things. Influence a child by increasing his or her confidence. Increase faith through the words we speak. We build our foundation on the rock of Jesus Christ.
Still small voice - that is how the Lord speaks to us. Children need to be spoken to with mildness.
** Given to us in the very hour, yea in the very minute what you shall say or do.
** Disconnect technology, everything in the home. The silence may be disturbing. But a conversation will occur.
25 words hanoi prisoner. "These things are important, temple marriage, ......take pictures twice a year.
** speak and write to your children in Love, reflect the love we have for them and God's love for them.

Marriage - no other relationship, priceless
Eternal marriages are based on faith on the Lord, Jesus Christ. Pay and honest tithing. no picking an choosing some things and disregarding the rest.
Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the foundation.
Repentance in marriage - self evaluation, take steps to take corrective actions. Humility is the essence of repentance. humility recognizes that no one can change someone else. Treat our spouses with meekness. Put the other first in every decision.
Fourth, respect - equal partners, no domination, not in keeping with divine law. Make decision unanimously, helping each other with their shared responsibilities. turn off electronics. help with household responsibilities. help with children, read with them. They go to bed together.
Transparency - access to all financial information. fiercely loyal to each other. No secrets. Share profiles and passwords. Virtually or physically.
Fifth - Love. Cleave unto her and none else. completely devoted to each other. Love each other with complete devotion.
Single - persevere, may heaven bless you richly. Keep the commandments. One day every promised blessing will be yours. Promises of the Lord will come unto them.
Elder L Tom Perry
War of words, deeds and thoughts. Secularism is beginning be the norm.
obedience to law is liberty. Universal and eternal law. Be a man and live abundantly, observe God's law. Freedom from sin. Obedience to law is liberty. Why does it ring true to us?
Satan, the destruction of Man's agency was the cost. Victory in the war in heaven was over agency. Now, Satan does his back up plan. Make us miserable. he is driven to succeed. He is part of the test of our agency. Choice between liberty and eternal life or captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devel. Seeketh to make all men miserable like himself.
War against sin. Live the commandments of God. Ten commandments. Most acceptable delineation between good and evil. We dismiss the other six commandments: idols of celebrities and wealth, profane God's name, Sabbath day is misused. Sexuality as recreation. Coveting is rampant.
man to substitute his own rules on either end (procreation and murder). Marriage is part of this deterioration. We remove the glue that hold our society together. How signficant is the home and family? sacred powers of procreation is only in marriage. Sin is always sin. God's commandments do not change. Wickedness never was happiness.
DC 130 - law irrevocably decreed. Blessing predicated upon obedience to law. moral absolutes. Moral compass is faulting. No picking and choosing all His commandment.
** Have a perfect trust in his promises. Be a beckon.
President Thomas S Monson
there is no need to travel unmarked paths. As we are obedient, we receive knowledge and light. Obey rules. Many learn through experience the wisdom of being obedient. Vivian Park, carefree days. Hiking and climbing, fishing. Wanting to build a fire. Grass dry and prickely. Set the weeds on fire. eight year old boy tommy. We were forbidden to use matches. Dangers of fire. We needed to clear that field. it would burn as far as we wanted. ignited although they were drenched in gasoline. We panicked. fire endangering the pine trees. Several hours the last remaining embers were extinquished. Learned lessons. Importance of obedience.
Spiritual safety. Navigate this often treachourous existence. To obey is better than to sacrifice. he requires a willing heart and mind. Eat the bread of Zion in the last days.
Never once did Nephi fail.
Soul stirring account; Abraham and Isaac. Offer him as a sacrifice. Anguish racked his body and tortured his mind. Took knife. Lay not thou hand on the lad. Thy only son. passed the test. In thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed because thou hast obeyed my voice.
Obedience is good to do. Just do it.
Walter Crowsa - east Germany. Lack of freedom. He loved and served the Lord. Johann Vendorfer, Hungary, prisoner in his native land. Walter was Johann's home teacher. Lives Hungary, in about a week if we get back. Dandorfer overwhelmed with gratitude. Gave his tithing. Now I'm current with the Lord. Now I am worthy to shake the hands of the servants of the Lord. Crowsa served faithfully. Never murmurred and never made excuses. Prove them herewith. abiding the law for the blessing. Savior, no greater example exists. Made perfect. Author of eternal salvation. Lived the perfect live. Honoring the sacred mission he received. Never haughty, never puffed up. Refused deviate what he knew was right. Gesemenenee, obedient. Instructs us, follow thou me. Are we willing to obey? answers and blessings can be ours. He that keepeth God's commandments receiveth truth and light until he receiveth all things.
