NEW TESTAMENT
Romans 3 and 4
3 Since we all sin, no-one can be justified by works alone. Some intervening power must bridge the gap. Jesus Christ was the answer. He's our grace. God's blessing are worth more than a man's good works could ever earn.
4 No man can earn salvation on his own. We need to pay the price of faith. Faith that includes enduring works of righteousness. We need to conform our lives to gospel standards. Only was possible to have this kind of faith.
We are justified of faith and works, through grace.
BOOK OF MORMON

'You matter to Him' by Pres. Dieter F Uchtdorf
In the big picture there are worlds without number. Man is nothing.............yet the worth of souls is great in the sight of God. We are the reason God created the Universe.
We need to be humble and serve. We need to remember that all the $ in the world could not by a loaf of bread in the economy of heaven.
The Lord uses a scale very different from the world to weigh the worth of a soul.
Always remember ................we matter to the Lord.

ENSIGN
August 2011 'Solidly Anchored'
We need to be spiritually prepared in the the gospel. Fear is the opposite of faith. Do not be afraid.
Do not look for the world for help.
Looking for a higher source for knowledge and power can help us far more than relying on the wisdom of the world.
The New Testament has 27 books and a little more than 400 pages.
We need to be spiritually connected to the right source and have the knowledge and ability to use the power we receive.

'Personal Revelation and Testimony' by Barbara Thompson
Way to receive personal revelation is clear.
* Desire to receive.
* Don't harden your heart.
* Ask in faith.
* Truly believe we'll receive the answer.
* Diligently keep the commandments.
I need to do my duties in humility and faith.
The Holy Ghost satisfies and fills up every longing of the human heart and fills up every vacuum.
When I am filled with that Spirit ........... my soul is satisfied.
I need to be praying for faith
We must nourish and strengthen our testimonies in order that it will have sufficient power to sustain us.
