August Presidency Message

"Like all of you, I have to choose. We all are trying to choose the good part which cannot be taken from us, to balance the spiritual and the temporal in our lives. Wouldn’t it be easy if we were choosing between visiting teaching or robbing a bank? Instead, our choices are often more subtle. We must choose between many worthy options.... Dear sisters, one thing is needful, to follow Him each day. Choose ye therefore Christ the Lord. Choose to feast upon His word. Choose to trust in Him above. Choose to wait upon His love.
Choose to give Him all your heart. Choose ye therefore that good part."

"Choosing Charity: That Good Part,” Ensign, Nov 2003, 104 ~ Bonnie D. Parkin,
