The Simple Plan (6/3/2009)

Today, I would like to share with you some words from President Eyring:

"'Be thou humble; and the Lord thy God shall lead thee by the hand, and give thee answer to thy prayers.' (D&C 112:10) The Lord always wants to lead us to deliverance through our becoming more righteous. That requires repentance. And that takes humility. So the way to deliverance always requires humility in order for the Lord to be able to lead us by the hand where He wants to take us through our troubles and on to sanctification."

One of the beautiful things about the Gospel is its simplicity. We begin with faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ. We believe that He has made it possible for us to return to live with our Father in Heaven again. Once we cultivate that faith, we humble ourselves and commit to live our lives the way that He lived His. Then through repentance and baptism, we demonstrate our ongoing commitment to stay the course back to our Father in Heaven. I hope that wherever we are on the path, we will follow these simple steps to help us reach our destination.
