"Life’s Challenges
Remember as you try to get through the challenges that life brings, making good decisions is important.
We must always remember that the tough choices we make and struggle with, builds character.
The ability to make the correct choice can either be won or lost, in the battlefield of your own mind.
The plan of agency creates opportunity for us to make our own decisions, having opposition in all things.

"If we fail, we, and we alone, are responsible for the failure, because God endows His servants, from the President of the Church down to the humblest member, with all the ability, all the knowledge, all the power that is necessary, faithfully, diligently, and properly to discharge every duty and every obligation that rests upon them, and we, and we alone, will have to answer if we fail in this regard."

| Heber J. Grant - Teachings of the Presidents of the Church: Heber J Grant |
"Whether a man remains satisfied within what we designate the animal world, satisfied with what the animal world will give him, yielding without effort to the whim of his appetites and passions and slipping farther and farther into the realm of indulgence, or whether, through self-mastery, he rises toward intellectual, moral, and spiritual enjoyments depends upon the kind of choice he makes every day, nay, every hour of his life."

| David O. McKay - Teachings of the Presidents of the Church |
"No power on earth, no power beneath the earth, will ever prevent you or me or any Latter-day Saint from being saved, except ourselves."

| Heber J. Grant - Teachings of the Presidents of the Church: Heber J Grant |
"There is an unlimited supply of good music in the world. Thus our
biggest challenge is to choose wisely what we listen to and what we
watch."
|
| M. Russell Ballard - Let Our Voices Be Heard |
"If pain and sorrow and total punishment immediately followed the doing of evil, no soul would repeat a misdeed. If joy and peace and rewards were instantaneously given the doer of good, there could be no evil—all would do good and not because of the rightness of doing good. There would be no test of strength, no development of character, no growth of powers, no free agency. . . . There would also be an absence of joy, success, resurrection, eternal life, and godhood."

| Spencer W. Kimball - Oct. Gen. Conf 2004 |
"How easy it would be for your leaders to lead you to destruction, unless you actually know the mind and will of the Spirit yourselves. That is your privelege. "
|
| Brigham Young - quotes website |
"It is true that in this life we are only as free as our mortal circumstances allow. We may not be able to stay the course of war in distant lands or with our puny arm hold back the tempests that rage or run freely when our body is imprisoned by failing health. But it is verily true that such things do not ultimately control our personal world. We do!"

| Keith B. McMullin - Gen. Conf. Oct. 2005 |
"Choosing to do what the Lord has defined as right will, in the long run, always lead to the best outcomes."
|
| Richard G. Scott - Ensign, Nov. 1998, 69 |
""If you wish to go where God is, you must be like God or posses the principles that God possesses, for if we are not drawing towards God in principle, we are going from him and towards the devil.""
