Sister Jensen - The widow’s mite – it may not seem like someone is giving their all. Don’t judge/compare yourself or others. Just give your best and assume others are doing likewise.
Sister Copeland - Abraham’s example of his willingness to sacrifice his son can be seen (in a lesser degree) in the parents of missionaries who sacrifice their children to the Lord's service for two years.
Sister Eagar We often think that if we take care of ourselves first we will have the energy to complete our tasks, but in missionary work I’ve found that when I forget myself and give everything, I then receive the strength to carry on and experience miracles.
Sister Moynihan Alma 51- interesting analogy to war in heaven.
Sister Lee Se Ri 1 Ne 3:7 The Lord qualifies those he calls. I will go and do because I know he will prepare a way.

Sister Nam D&C 3:9-12 Seeking signs is not pleasing to the Lord, but we are blessed with a multiplicity of miracles as we act in faith.

Sister Erickson - A lesson from Mom - Life isn’t to just be endured, but to be enjoyed.
Sister Oh – The Lord repeatedly called Moses “My son”. Later, knowing who he was enabled him to repel Satan’s enticings.
Sister Thayn Some things can’t be changed, worrying doesn’t help. The Lord knows us and loves us and will provide everything that is needful!
Sister Jeong – Reading scriptures used to be difficult, but as I continually read, the Lord uses them to solve my problems, and now I LOVE reading the scriptures!
Sis. Ahn – Mormon 9 – As missionaries we have experience and know that through faith we can do all things.
Sister Choi D&C 38:33 This work is bigger than we could have ever known before our missions. The Lord creates miracles. Nothing can stop it.
Sister Fairbanks Alma 2:30 Pattern of how the Lord gives strength to his people. This same prayer saves us spiritually as well as physically.

Sister Stehmeier Reading thru the standard works can sometimes seem boring. I’ve been able to see relevance even in obscure verses, such as the minutely detailed instructions for building a temple reminds me how we have detailed instructions for missionary work, personal worthiness, etc. The Lord cares about the details of our lives.
Sister Miller Some recent Ensign articles tell of how hard missionary work is. They also teach us of how hard things make us better.
Sister Alder D&C 84:88 Angels round about you.....Sometimes it’s hard to see all the help we are getting.
