“We have been striving for the things of the world and in this striving, have thrown ourselves into exile. When enough pain is experienced over a lifetime, people ask the perennial question; 'What must I do to be saved?' They must accomplish the reversal and turn towards G-d. There is no where else to go. No other path to take.”

“During personal prayers, I humbly talk to my Heavenly Father and express to Him my troubles, my wants, and my wishes. It is in prayer that I acknowledge and thank God for the blessings and tender mercies I receive. This quiet time is when I share the thoughts at the forefront of my mind. Then I listen to hear or feel impressions that come as answers to me. God is all-knowing of the purposes of life's trials. He understands the pain and sadness experienced in mortality. He knows. He cares. God does not take away the tribulations that I face, but He does help me through them so that I grow in experience, understanding, and compassion. So for every new day I face, I pray to God and work to trust His will above my own.”
