QUOTE OF THE DAY:
Howard W. Hunter
Howard W. Hunter
"The ancients whom we
love and read and quote so much-Adam and
Abraham, Joshua and Joseph, Isaiah and Ezekiel and Ezra, Nephi and Alma, and
Mormon and Moroni-all of these ancient prophets, priests, and kings focused
their prophetic vision 'with peculiar delight' on our day, on our time. It is
this hour to which they have looked forward 'with joyful anticipation,' and
'fired with heavenly and joyful anticipation they have sung and written and
prophesied of this our day.'
"They saw us as 'the favored people' upon whom God would shower his full and complete latter-day glory, and I testify that is our destiny. What a privilege! What an honor! What a responsibility! And what joy! We have every reason in time and eternity to rejoice and give thanks for the quality of our lives and the promises we have been given. That we may do so, I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen" ("An Anchor to the Souls of Men," BYU Devotional, February 7, 1993).
