Prayer And Worship
Prayer is spiritually sustaining, but worship is divinely creative. 143:7.5
The True Shepherd
" I am the true shepherd who is willing even to lay down his life for the sheep...I have come that you all may have life and have it more abundantly." Jesus, 165:2.8
A Prayer: Perfect Heavenly Father
Fill us with wisdom to the fullness of power. And vitalize us with your infinite energy.
Inspire us with the divine consciousness of the presence and guidance of the seraphic hosts. 144:5.24
Advancing In Spirit Status
The keys of the kingdom of heaven are: sincerity, more sincerity, and more sincerity. All men have these keys. Men use them — advance in spirit status — by decisions, by more decisions, and by more decisions. 39:4.14
Spiritual Exercise
Jesus often took his apostles away by themselves for short periods to engage in meditation and prayer, but for the most part he kept them in service-contact with the multitudes. The soul of man requires spiritual exercise as well as spiritual nourishment. 91:7.2
The Spiritual World
In the physical universe we may see the divine beauty, in the intellectual world we may discern eternal truth, but the goodness of God is found only in the spiritual world of personal religious experience. 2:6.1
Nothing More Enthralling
"There is no adventure in the course of mortal existence more enthralling than to enjoy the exhilaration of becoming the material life partner with spiritual energy and divine truth..." Jesus, 130:2.4
The greatest of human knowledge
Of all human knowledge, that which is of greatest value is to know the religious life of Jesus and how he lived it. 196:1.3
Spiritual Destiny
"Spiritual destiny is dependent on faith, love, and devotion to truth — hunger and thirst for righteousness — the wholehearted desire to find God and to be like him." 156:5.7
Walk Humbly
"The prophet spoke advisedly when he said, `Walk humbly with God,' for, while the Father in heaven is the Infinite and the Eternal, he also dwells `with him who is of a contrite mind and a humble spirit.'" ~Jesus~ 149:6.11
