I can truly say I'm glad to be here. I can look into your faces and as many as I know, as many as yet I know I've got to know, I hope the Lord blesses each and every one of you. Because your face is unique. And I hope he blesses you anyway if your face isn't according to what you've heard. I don't know how to start out, but I've heard Uncle Maren and some of the other brothers and sisters.

I don't know what I can say and do any benefit to you. But I know one thing. But we've got to get your spirit, your spirit of this week, your spirit of the Lord. We come to these meetings every Sunday or every other Sunday. We're invited to go other places where we can be taught and see our association with your spirit of the Lord, the association of our friends and our loved ones. Many of us are really trying 100% all these privileges we have. Every time I get up and talk, I...

Say how thankful I am for living this day and age, and I'm going to say it now, because I am thankful. Every day I get up from work, I ask the Lord to help me. Some days I feel like I'm not doing as good as I should, even though I'm trying. Some days I feel like I'm just there. But I know that I've got to try more harder, put my mind to the things that it's asking me, gain the confidence to appreciate, be obedient.

these many things that they've asked us to do. I plead with myself and you people, let's get the spirit of this work. Let's do the job of what I have to do. I guess I can't explain how I feel. Sometimes on Sundays, I could feel all through the week the way I feel on Sundays sometimes. I know that after I hear the brethren talk or the association I've had with them, I know that I'd be a long ways farther than I am now.

I'm sure that's the case with each and every one of you. I thank Uncle Miriam for calling on me. I had a feeling that maybe he would, but I didn't. My mind went blank. I didn't know what I could say to help you or to help me. I'll tell you something. We went to that little fireside last night. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but I'm going to say it anyway. If you please don't have to pass it on. So to do a great thing. We brought things out last night.

I needed. I asked Uncle Ryan's permission to come up from down south. I wanted to come, and I'm glad I'm coming. It was worth everything that I did to come up here and hear about Fireside. One thing we talked about in Fireside Monthly is to educate the young folks, and to tell them to move, and to tell them the responsibilities of the priesthood, and to do it now, so they can tell you when they get a little older. And that's it.

stop me is what brother guy said at one time that he related to us is there's so many of us young guys young men and men that had experience since we got the right to have revelation according to some of these young girls and things like that it really didn't hit me too until last night i i knew it but my uncle and brother bill said how can you have a revelation Without Brother John from having a church. Without him knowing that church. It's just too, it's too, it's all we can do. No matter what, what line it's in. Anything that comes from God comes through the people. They are doing the benefit, I hope it is. I thank you and I say this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
