“Realizing who we are and what we may become assures us that with God nothing really is impossible. From the time we learn that Jesus wants us for a Sunbeam until we learn more fully the basic principles of the gospel, we are taught to strive for perfection. It is not new to us then to talk of the importance of achievement. The difficulty arises when inflated expectations of the world alter our definition of greatness.” WorldWantMayJesusRealizingPrinciplesImpossibleGreatnessTaughtAchievementExpectationsPerfectionImportanceDifficultyStriveDefinitionsAriseWho We AreWant UBasic PrinciplesSunbeams Author:Howard W.

“The ability to stand by one's principles, to live with integrity and faith according to one's belief-that is what matters, that is the difference between a contribution and a commitment. That devotion to true principle in our individual lives, in our homes and families, and in all places that we meet and influence other people-that devotion is what God is ultimately requesting of us.” PeopleMatterHomeIndividualBeliefDifferencesAbilityPrinciplesInfluenceIntegrityCommitmentIndividualityDevotionContributionDedicationWhat MattersRequestIndividual LifeHome And Family Author:Howard W.

“How is Christmas regarded today? The legend of Santa Claus, the Christmas tree, the decorations of tinsel and mistletoe, and the giving of gifts all express to us the spirit of the day we celebrate; but the true spirit of Christmas lies much deeper than these. It is found in the life of the Savior, in the principles He taught, in His atoning sacrifice-which become our great heritage.” GivingTodaySpiritLyingFoundPrinciplesSacrificeTreeTaughtDeeperCelebrateSaviorHeritageLegendsSantaSanta ClausDecorationChristmas SpiritChristmas TreeTinselMistletoeTrue Spirit Of Christmas Author:Howard W.

“The first recorded instruction given to Adam after the Fall dealt with the eternal principle of work. The Lord said: "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread." (Gen. 3:19.) Our Heavenly Father loves us so completely that he has given us a commandment to work. This is one of the keys to eternal life. He knows that we will learn more, grow more, achieve more, serve more, and benefit more from a life of industry than from a life of ease.” KnowsLifeFirstsSaidFacesFallFatherGivenGrowsLordPrinciplesLearningAchieveKeysIndustryBenefitsEternalBreadEaseHeavenlySweatAdamInstructionCommandmentsEternal LifeHeavenly Father Author:Howard W.
