"It is not easy for children to stay clean and pure in today's
world. There
are times when it becomes hard for them to tell right from wrong. We
need to
teach our children, as Alma taught his son Corianton, 'Wickedness
never was
happiness' (Alma
41:10).
Teach them to stay on the Lord's side of the line. Hold family home
evening
regularly. Hold family prayer twice a day, if possible. Teach them
to love the
scriptures and how to experience the sweet answer to individual
prayer. Teach
them to understand and recognize how the Holy Ghost communicates
with us and how
it comes as promptings, thoughts, impressions, and feelings. Teach
the sacred
significance of the atoning sacrifice of our Savior Jesus Christ." -

"I believe that every
active member of the Church knows a lost sheep who needs the attention
and love of a caring shepherd." - Ben

Climbing steep
mountain passes on a bike requires the right attitude to get to the
right altitude. It’s the same with life. By setting worthwhile goals
and keeping your eyes fixed on them, you will learn self-discipline
and accomplish much. Yes, there were times when climbing the steep
mountain grades was as much as I could bear, but I didn’t give up,
because I was fixed in my purpose. - Ben
B. Banks, “The
Road We Call Life,” Ensign (CR) May 2002
