“First,
fill your mind with truth. We do not find truth groveling through error. Truth
is found by searching, studying, and living the revealed word of God. We adopt
error when we mingle with error. We learn truth when we associate with truth.
…He
invites each of us, 'Learn of me, and listen to my words; walk in the meekness
of my Spirit, and you shall have peace in me.'(See D&C 19:23)
…We
live in turbulent times. Often the future is unknown; therefore, it behooves us
to prepare for uncertainties. Statistics reveal that at some time, because of
the illness or death of your husband or because of economic necessity, you may
find yourself in the role of financial provider. I urge you to pursue your
education and learn marketable skills so that, should an emergency arise, you
are prepared to provide.
Your
talents will expand as you study and learn. You will be able to better assist
your children in their learning, and you will have peace of mind in knowing
that you have prepared yourself for the eventualities that you may encounter in
life."
President Thomas S. Monson,
“Be Thou An Example”, October 2001 General Relief Society Meeting
