SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 
Mosiah 4:14-15
"And ye will not suffer your children that they go hungry, or naked; neither will ye suffer that they transgress the laws of God, and fight and quarrel one with another, and serve the devil, who is the master of sin, or who is the evil spirit which hath been spoken of by our fathers, he being an enemy to all righteousness. But ye will teach them to walk in the ways of truth and soberness; ye will teach them to love one another, and to serve one another."
Spencer W. Kimball
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Spencer W. Kimball

"We are a Church founded upon families; a Church that takes care of its own, stressing the economic, intellectual, and spiritual development of its families and individual members in preparation for salvation in the kingdom of heaven("The Things of Eternity-Stand We in Jeopardy?,"Ensign, January 1977).
Temples of Our God
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 
Doctrine & Covenants 124:40-41
"And verily I say unto you, let this house be built unto my name, that I may reveal mine ordinances therein unto my people; For I deign to reveal unto my church things which have been kept hid from before the foundation of the world, things that pertain to the dispensation of the fulness of times."

Harold B. Lee
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Harold B. Lee

"When you enter a holy temple, you are by that course gaining fellowship with the Saints in God's eternal kingdom, where time is no more. In the temples of your God you are endowed not with a rich legacy of worldly treasure, but with a wealth of eternal riches that are above price.

"The temple ceremonies are designed by a wise Heavenly Father who has revealed them to us in these last days as a guide and a protection throughout our lives, that you and I might not fail to merit exaltation in the celestial kingdom, where God and Christ dwell(Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Harold B. Lee, p. 100).

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Lorenzo Snow

"Each last day or each last week should be the best that we have ever experienced, that is, we should advance ourselves a little every day, in knowledge and wisdom, and in the ability to accomplish good. As we grow older we should live nearer the Lord each following day(Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Lorenzo Snow, p. 103).

Holy Ghost
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 
2 Nephi 32:5
"For behold, again I say unto you that if ye will enter in by the way, and receive the Holy Ghost, it will show unto you all things what ye should do."

Joseph F. Smith
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph F. Smith

"All men are blessed with the strength of their bodies, with the use of their minds, and with the right to exercise the faculties with which they are endowed in a way that seemeth good to their sight, without regard to religion. But God has not and will not suffer the gift of the Holy Ghost to be bestowed upon any man or woman, except through compliance with the laws of God(Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 289).

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 
Jacob 2:18-19
"But before ye seek for riches, seek ye for the kingdom of God. And after ye have obtained a hope in Christ ye shall obtain riches, if ye seek them; and ye will seek them for the intent to do good--to clothe the naked, and to feed the hungry, and to liberate the captive, and administer relief to the sick and the afflicted."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Heber J. Grant

"Dollars and cents are not blessings from God. Only so far as we are blessed with intelligence, with wisdom, and with the Spirit of God to use them in a wise and proper manner, and to advance God's kingdom on the earth are they such. If we are blessed with an abundance of this world's goods and it shall blind our eyes ... then instead of being a blessing from God it [comes] from the opposite direction(Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Heber J. Grant, p. 127).
