“Every
child of Heavenly Father born in the world is given at birth, as a free gift,
the Light of Christ. You have felt that. It is the sense of what is right and
what is wrong and what is true and what is false. That has been with you since
your journey in life began…The Holy Ghost is a powerful source of light to
recognize truth, to follow and love the Lord Jesus Christ, and to find your way
back to God after this life.
But the
spirit who led the rebellion in the world before still opposes the plan and
wants you to be miserable. He wants you never to find your way home again. That
enemy of your soul knows you and your goodness. He knows that if he can turn
you away from walking in the light, he can both capture you and stop you from
helping others along the journey. He knows how good you are and your power to
teach and influence hundreds of Heavenly Father’s children in this life—and
thousands over the generations that will follow your path. If he can get you to
wander away from the light on your journey, he can do harm and bring misery to
many….
You make
choices every day and almost every hour that keep you walking in the light or
moving away toward darkness. Some of the most important choices are about what
you set your heart upon.”
