Whenever we choose to come unto Christ, take His name upon us, and follow His servants, we progress along the path to eternal life.

than sorrow when our mortal and spiritual eyes are open to God's
goodness. Joy in the gospel is not something that begins only in the

more abundantly." Enjoy those blessings right now. They are yours and
always will be. — Jeffrey R. Holland
