Day 25
Read: Jarom - Words of Mormon
Mark: jarom 1:5
"We have become a nation of pleasure seeking sabbath breakers...What fits the purpose of the Sabbath? Activities that contribute to geater spirituality...I don't believe that it is possible to keep our spirituality on a high plane by spending our Sabbaths on the beach, on the golf course..or in our own homes..looking at televisiton." - President Ezra Taft Benson
How can you more fully keep the Sabbath day holy?

Day 26
Read: Mosiah Chapaters 1 thru 2
Mark: Mosiah 2:17
"Our focus should be on righteousness, not recognition, on service, not status. The faithful visitng teacher, who quietly goes about her work month after month, is just as important to the work of the Lord as those who occupy what some see as more prominent positions in the Church. Visibility does not equate to value...When we understand why we serve we will not worry about where we serve." -President Howard W Hunter
How often do you serve?

Day 27
Read: Mosiah Chapters 3 thru 4
Mark Mosiah 4:30
"Work at keeping your thoughts clean by thinking of something good. The mind can think of only one thing at a time. Use that fact to crowd out ugly thoughts. Above all, don't feed thoughts by reading or watching things that are wrong. If you don't control your thoughts. Satan will keep tempting you until you eventually act them out." - Elder Richard G Scott
What helps you must to control your thoughts?

Day 28
Read: Mosiah Chapters 5 thru 8
Mark Mosiah 5:2-7
"No one can be born again without baptism. But, the immersion of water and the laying on of hands to confer the Holy Ghost do not of themselves guarantee that a person has been or will be born again. The new birth takes place only for those who actually enjoy the Gift or companionship of the Holy Ghose, only for those who are fully converted, who have given themselves without restraint to the Lord." - Elder Bruce R McConkie
How can you more fully give yourself to the Lord to experience that might change of heart?
