"It is one thing to talk about the gospel, but it is quite another to live it. It is one thing to preach about Christ, but it is another to follow in his footsteps.

"When the gospel is incorporated in the life of each one of us, it molds our decisions and determines our actions. We become models and examples who can teach others the path to follow leading to life eternal only when we live the principles of the gospel.

"In the great mission to which we have been called, to be saviors of men, may we follow the admonition of the Lord:

"'Verily I say unto you all: Arise and shine forth, that thy light may be a standard for the nations.' (D&C 115:5.)" - Angel Abrea, "The Sure Sound of the Trumpet," Ensign (CR), May 1984, p.70

Have we thought about the tremendous spiritual deterioration that results from not keeping the Sabbath day holy? This commandment involves much more than just resting from our labors. Keeping the Sabbath day holy inherently builds spiritual character and prepares us for what is to come. By observing this commandment, we will have power over evil; we will be more capable of keeping the commandments of the Lord and maintaining ourselves unspotted from the sins of the world. (See D&C 59:9.) - Angel Abrea, "The Little Things and Eternal Life," Ensign (CR) October 1981
