"Each of us should remember that he or she is a son or daughter of God, endowed with faith, gifted with courage, and guided by prayer. Our eternal destiny is before us. The Apostle Paul speaks to us today as he spoke to Timothy long years ago: 'Neglect not the gift that is in thee.' 'O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust.' (1 Tim. 4:14; 1 Tim. 6:20.)

"At times many of us let that enemy of achievement—even the culprit 'self-defeat'—dwarf our aspirations, smother our dreams, cloud our vision, and impair our lives. The enemy's voice whispers in our ears, 'You can't do it.' 'You're too young.' 'You're too old.' 'You're nobody.' This is when we remember that we are created in the image of God. Reflection on this truth provides a profound sense of strength and power." - Thomas S. Monson, "Choose You This Day," Ensign (CR), November 2004, p.67

"Perhaps it is time that we humble ourselves and overcome the obstacles to faith, and then become converted as Peter did. Why go through life with two candlepower when more than four hundred watts are available? The tasks are so great! How can we possibly take the gospel to all the world and redeem the dead at the same time? I don't know, but the power and energy to do so must and will come by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ." - John K. Carmack, "Faith Yields Priesthood Power," Ensign (CR), May 1993, p. 41
