Pure in Heart

This week's quotation is from Elder Dallin Oaks:
"The word most commonly used to describe the condition of the inner man is heart. Alma referred to the kind of conversion that led to the salvation of a people as "a mighty change . . . wrought in their hearts" (Alma 5:13). To be "pure in heart" is to achieve that condition in which motives, desires, and attitudes are acceptable to God and consistent with the eternal progress that is the ultimate destiny of his children."

("Pure in Heart," Dallin H. Oaks, Bookcraft, Inc., chapter 9)

Love,

Dad/Mark
