I know that God lives. I know that Jesus is the Christ. And I am thankful to know that we are all brothers and sisters—thankful that he gives us all opportunities so to adjust our lives here that when mortality is complete and our work is done that we will dwell in his presence and enjoy the companionship of those we love forever. Shouldn’t that make us feel that our homes must be the abiding place of the Spirit of the Lord? Shouldn’t that make each of us feel, where we know what the Lord has advised us to do, that it is the best for us and we will do what he wants us to do? I want to say that the happiest people in all the world are those who obey the counsel of our Heavenly Father. – George Albert Smith, “Conference Report,” October 1948, First Day-Morning Meeting, p.8
