Honesty

Last Sunday in Young Women we had a lesson on honesty. The YW president taught the lesson. I needed to add that because:


1- I really love my current YW president. I have had 3 since i joined.

2- I love her even more because she is bringing me a king size Heath Bar on Wednes day because I memorized the 12 apostles.

3-And more.


Here are some quotes and things that I thought were interesting:


---"Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight" (Proverbs 12:22)


---Mormon , speaking of the converted Lamanites who were known as the people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi, wrote: "And they were among the people of Nephi, and also numbered among the people who were of the church of God. And they were also distinguished for their zeal towards God, and also towards men; for they were perfectly honest and upright in all things; and they were firm in the faith of Christ, even unto the end" (Alma 27:27)


---"Love your neighbor as yourself" (Matthew 22:39 or Mark 12:31)


---"Do unto others as you would have others do unto you" (Matthew 7:12 or Luke 6:31)

Those were ones in a story by Bishop Richard C. Edgley.

Here is a quote I found in a book i was reading:(It was really good even my mom and dad read it and they said that)

---To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. (e e cummings)
