“Sister Eliza R. Snow was given a charge from the prophet Brigham Young to help lift and teach the sisters of the Church. She “taught that individual women could receive inspiration to guide them in their personal lives, their families, and their Church responsibilities. She said: ‘Tell the sisters to go forth and discharge their duties, in humility and faithfulness and the Spirit of God will rest upon them and they will be blest in their labors. Let them seek for wisdom instead of power and they will have all the power they have wisdom to exercise.’” SaidHelpingInspirationYoungSpiritIndividualGivenChurchResponsibilityTeachHumilityTaughtDutyExerciseLaborGuidesGods WillSnowLiftsProphetPersonal LifeFaithfulnessSpirit Of GodDischarge Author:Eliza R.

“I heard the prophet Joseph Smith say the time would come when this nation would so far depart from its original purity, its glory, and its love for freedom and its protection of civil rights and religious rights, that the Constitution of our country would hang as it were by a thread. He said, also, that this people, the sons of Zion, would rise up and save the Constitution and bear it off triumphantly.” PeopleSaidCountryNationsReligiousRightsHeardSonBearsGloryConstitutionOriginalsProtectionCivil RightsOur CountryProphetPurityThreadJoseph SmithZionReligious Rights Author:Eliza R.
