I enjoyed my shift at the temple yesterday. Otherwise a pretty uneventful day. Today we don't have much planned other than walking probably at University Place. The weather has been a little warmer lately but it's cooling again. 

Come Follow Me 

D&C 6:33 Fear not to do good, my sons, for whatsoever ye sow, that shall ye also reap; therefore, if ye sow good ye shall also reap good for your reward.

34 Therefore, fear not, little flock; do good; let earth and hell combine against you, for if ye are built upon my rock, they cannot prevail.

"Brothers and sisters, our goodness—our every righteous endeavor—our good works, our obedience, and our efforts to bless others must be anchored in and driven by our faith in Christ, our testimonies of his mission and sacrifice, and our willingness to move off our comfortable plateaus...

Satan wants us to fail to reach that mountaintop that will allow us to develop a testimony so powerful that he will be unable to influence us. His work is to thwart our efforts, but the Lord has counseled us, “Fear not, little flock; do good; let earth and hell combine against you, for if ye are built upon my rock, they cannot prevail”.

We have every confidence that earth and hell will not overtake you, but it will require that you move from your current plateaus and climb to higher ground."

Elder Jack H Goaslind Of the Presidency of the Seventy, October 1995
