"Prophets ancient and modern were and are giants of the Lord, chosen and
ordained before they came to this earth. Our prophets are men whom the Lord has
raised up specifically to preside over the Church for the particular time in
which they have served. The Lord is working through the leaders of His Church
today, just as He has always done in the past. President Wilford Woodruff said,
'If we had before us every revelation which God ever gave to man . and they were
piled up here a hundred feet high, the Church and kingdom of God could not grow,
in this or any other age of the world, without the living oracles of God.' ('The
Keys of the Kingdom,' Millennial Star, 51:548)" - Virginia U. Jensen,

"While his enemies gained power through fraud and deceit, Moroni empowered
the Nephites by teaching them to be faithful to God (see Alma 48:7). How do we, like
Captain Moroni, create places of security for those around us in these sometimes
frightening and perilous times? We can begin by following the admonition found
in 1 Timothy 4:12 [1 Tim. 4:12]:
'Be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in
spirit, in faith, in purity.'" - Virginia U. Jensen, "Creating
Places of Security," Ensign, November 1997, p. 90

"Do we fully appreciate what a wondrous blessing it
is to each one of us that we have found our prophet? The ways in which our lives
have been enriched by listening to our prophet's voice are numerous. We have a
clearer picture of who we are and what we mean to our Father in Heaven. We have
received commandments and counsel to guide us, reminders to keep us on the
straight and narrow, and encouraging words to spur us on when we become
disheartened or discouraged. If we listen to the voices of the world, we will be
misled. But if we listen to the voice of the Lord through His living prophet and
follow his counsel, we will never go astray." - Virginia U. Jensen, "Come,
Listen to a Prophet's Voice," Ensign, Nov. 1998, p. 13
