We're grateful to have one of our junior members here tonight who has met many requirements and is very faithful in the work. I ask Sister Margaret Musker to bear her testimony. I'm glad I can't see everybody. I certainly pray for the Spirit of the Lord to be with me while I occupy this minute. I feel that I have so much to be grateful for that I couldn't begin to express it.

But I know the way that I can show it is to start doing, and changing my character into the character of my husband and into the character of God, which isn't an easy job. I know that God's commands are gentle, and I know that he takes care of his children, that they will give him a chance. I know that if we pray for the spirit of obedience, that we'll receive it.

and that he'll stay in the path that these brethren are trying so desperately to lead us in, that we'll come out on top. I feel so thankful to think that the Lord has gifted me out, that I might have an opportunity to live this gospel, because I'm sure that there is nothing in this world without it. And I know that there's no stopping place. I know that we can't...

get along from day to day without getting down on our knees and asking our heavenly father to take us through that day sometimes even that hour i know these things that we've been taught if you'll put them to practice you'll carry us through and before we know it there'll be a year gone i'm grateful that we have these meetings also but i'm more grateful that they're teaching us how to do and what to do with ourselves from day to day because it's the moments that we're alone sometimes that we can get into more trouble and if we are in a big congregation i'm grateful for the association that i've had with sister bottle because i feel that she truly is my sister and i hope that i'll be worthy someday to to be her sister as well as many others and also for this

association that I've had with Sister Hammond. I feel that I read a little while ago what Brigham Young said. He said, when you're called upon to say anything, get up and bear your testimony and sit down and leave the instructing and the teaching to those whose right it is to teach. And I feel that that's what I should do. But I'm grateful for the opportunity to bear my testimony and thank our Heavenly Father for the understanding that I have.

and for the desire i have to live this gospel and to make myself over into something that he won't be ashamed of but when my days are over that those above me can truthfully say she has kept the faith and kept her covenant for i think that would be one of the greatest blessings a woman could have and to know that she had become completely one with her husband And those are my desires, and I pray for every one of us that we might have the desires of our hearts in righteousness. And I thank our Heavenly Father for this wonderful blessing and privilege that he's given me of living this gospel, and I do it in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
