| QUOTE OF THE DAY Thomas S. Monson |
|
“God’s commandments are not given to frustrate us or to become obstacles to our happiness. Just the opposite is true. He who created us and who loves us perfectly knows just how we need to live our lives in order to obtain the greatest happiness possible. He has provided us with guidelines which, if we follow them, will see us safely through this often treacherous mortal journey. We remember the words of the familiar hymn: ;Keep the commandments! In this there is safety; in this there is peace’” (“Keep the Commandments,” General Conference, October 2015).

1844 - The Prophet Joseph spent much of the afternoon with the Sac and Fox Native Americans who were visiting the city of Nauvoo. They told the Prophet about how they had been robbed of their land by the Spanish, French, English, and now the Americans and how they had been cruelly treated. The Prophet in turn told them that he “knew they had been wronged” and “advised them not to sell any more land, but to cultivate peace with the different tribes and with all men, as the Great Spirit wanted them to be united and to live in peace.” He then told them about the Book of Mormon. The Indians performed music and dancing for “about two hours” and “the Saints took up a collection to get the Indians food” (History of the Church, 6:402).
