LDS Daily A daily dose of what matters most
Scripture
“For man is spirit. The elements are eternal, and spirit and element, inseparably connected, receive a fulness of joy.” —Doctrine & Covenants 93:33
Quote
“It was Jesus Himself who first compared His body to a temple. What would happen if we truly treated our bodies as temples? The result would be a dramatic increase in chastity, modesty, observance of the Word of Wisdom, and a similar decrease in the problems of pornography and abuse, for we would regard the body, like the temple, as a sacred sanctuary of the Spirit.” —Susan W. Tanner
