He knows that Jesus is the Christ. There is no man with more love than Thomas Monson. His love is like the sunshine at midday (kinda creepy). Love from lord and prophet as he was called. The lord will shape the back to fit the burden laid upon it. We are all nobodies. If you ever forget it, the lord will remind you of it instantly, and it won't be pleasant.

How wonderful you are, the great family of believers in the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. The lord has blessed his family. Never have I seen any personal positioning, any pursuit of power. They just love Jesus. (Oh, yeah. They get no money, no compensation. I remember. We are not supposed to know about them getting paid for their position. The one true church is not supposed to have paid clergy. Are the members of the quorum of the twelve really not in it for the fame or adoration?)

These are the last days, the days of the gathering. The voice of the lord will go to the whole earth. We are blessed to bring the gospel to others. Purpose of restoration is to be a light to the world and a standard to the people. Our responsibility is not trivial, we have to keep covenants as a badge of honor. Modern day pioneers who have heard the voice of the lord, and follow the gospel. They are willing to sacrifice for what is right and true. They are holding steady in their course toward eternal life.

We are not alone in our desire to do good. There are good people in other faiths. Father loves all of his children. We must not shrink from what is uniquely found. Only here is the priesthood of god, the Book of Mormon, prophets of god to bring guidance from heaven, the sealing power. We should not feel superior, but should make us more humble to plead for the lord helps. We should not be timid in remembering that this is lords church and nothing shall overthrow it.

We proclaim our savior and redeemer and we owe him everything. He asks us to come unto him. Believers shall live, apostates shall die, etc etc. Monson is a prophet.

Amen
