There is nothing the Lord has asked of us that in faith we cannot accomplish.” – Gordon B. Hinckley, The War We Are Winning

Called of God

“I am called of God. My authority is above that of the kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ.

My voice is his voice, and my acts are his acts; my words are his words and my doctrine is his doctrine. My commission is to do what he wants done. To say what he wants said. To be a living modern witness in word and deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous latter-day work.” – Bruce R. McConkie

Work, work, work—there is no satisfactory substitute, especially in missionary work.” – Ezra Taft Benson, Keys to Successful Member-Missionary Work
