A
fact of life: our memory often needs help. What
would I do without my phone alerting me with daily reminders? My loving wife Kay is also good at reminding
me.
For
example, I’m reminded of the Boy Scout motto: “Be prepared.”
“The
Scout motto means that you are always ready to do what is necessary to help
others. …” – BoyScoutTrail.com

In
General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, Oct. 2004, President James E. Faust recalled, “We have much
reason to hope. Joy can be ours if we
are willing to sacrifice all for the Lord.” – Ensign, Nov. 2004, 21.
He quoted President Howard W. Hunter's reminder: “God knows what we do not know and sees what we do not see.”
– Conference Report, Oct. 1987, 71; or Ensign, Nov. 1987, 60.
I anticipate more reminders this weekend as we receive instruction from God’s prophet, Church authorities and officers – sisters and brothers. It will mean those things are most important for us today, as they have been in the past.
