President Faust on The Price of Everything

Here is a wonderful quote from President Faust, which was sent to me by a friend. I thought it was more than blog worthy.

"My dear young friends, there is another great truth that you must learn. It is that everything has a price. There is a price to pay for success, fulfillment, accomplishment, and joy. There are no freebies. If you don't pay the price that is needed for success, you will pay the price of failure. Preparation, work, study and service are required to achieve and find happiness. Disobedience and lack of preparation carry a terrible price tag. As members of this Church, part of the price we need to pay is by living differently from the world. We are possessors and custodians of these commanding powers which can and do roll back the power of Satan on the earth. With all my heart I urge you to please help us push back the world. We must stand against the wind. Sometimes we must be unpopular and simply say, "This is not right." - President James E. Faust
