"Duty"

 
We must always remember that duty reminds us we are stewards of all that our Creator has entrusted to us. When we accept duties willingly and faithfully, we find happiness. Those who make happiness the chief objective of life are bound to fail, for happiness is a by-product rather than an end in itself. Happiness comes from doing one’s duty and knowing that his life is in harmony with God and His commandments. By Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin (1917–2008) Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
 
 
“Duty”

9/20/12
 
Eternally to be a steward
having responsibility forever
never able this to sever
to us this skewered;
 
Fulfilling all asked to do
never to wavier once
finding greater bunce
to our covenants true!
