"When you make a basket in a
basketball game or kick a goal in soccer, there's a great feeling of
accomplishment and excitement. The same thing happens when you make
gospel points. You feel good about yourself. You also feel closer to
the Lord. You feel the excitement of knowing you're doing what God
wants you to do." - Russell C. Taylor, "Making
Points for Righteousness," Ensign (CR), May 1989, p.40

"Playing
ball is a great deal like life. You want to do your best, to be
committed, to be a team player. You want to follow the rules so you
don’t foul out. You want to make points.
"The rules in real life are different from those in a game. Our
rules are the commandments of God. You make points when you serve
your mission, draw close to the Lord, live the Word of Wisdom, stay
morally clean, and live a life of service and Church activity.
"How many points are you making in your life? Are you winning?" -

I can say
unashamedly, I rejoice in the service of God. My experience teaches that
the highest goodness attainable is a life of unselfish service to
mankind. The Master said, “He that is greatest among you shall be your
servant.” (Matt.
23:11.) -
