Humility Before Help

 “Over and over in the Doctrine and Covenants, the Lord requires faith and humility before He gives His help. One reason for this is that His answers may not come in the way we expect. Neither will they always be easy to accept.”

President Henry B. Eyring, “The Voice of the Lord,” Ensign, Jan 2013, 4. 

Receiving Answers

“In our prayers we seek to know what God would have us do, what we should do to find peace and happiness in this life and the next, and what lies ahead of us. The Doctrine and Covenants is filled with answers to such questions asked by ordinary people and by prophets in humble prayer. It can be a precious guide to teach us how to receive answers to questions about our temporal well being and eternal salvation.”

President Henry B. Eyring, “The Voice of the Lord,” Ensign, Jan 2013, 4. 

Study Section 132

“Every member of the Church should read and study section 132 of the Doctrine and Covenants. Do you realize that there is no one between the Lord and the sealer when he performs the sealing ordinance? It is a beautiful and a touching ceremony.”

Elder Robert D. Hales, “A Little Heaven on Earth,” Ensign Sept 2011, 46.
