My Sons

"I love the boys who hold the Aaronic Priesthood. Every young man who does so, walking in obedience to the commandments of the Lord, may expect to have the guidance of the Holy Spirit in his life. That Spirit will bless him in his studies and other pursuits and will lead him in efforts that will bless him and bless the lives of others all about him." ~President Gordon B. Hinckley

My sons, keep the Spirit with you.  It is the one thing from Heavenly Father that will never ever fail to guide you in the right direction.  Keep this saying in your minds:  "S(piritually) M(inded) I(s) L(ife) E(ternal)."  (SMILE.)

My sons, fulfill your duties in the priesthood.  Do it with a willing heart and a willing mind and an  enthusiastic attitude.  Smile as you do it.

My sons, love your sisters.  They need a brother who will be the example to them for how their husbands should treat them.  They need a priesthood holder to show them what to expect.  Even before their brother holds the priesthood, they need a brother who will show them how young men should act around them as daughters of Heavenly Father.  Please; show that to your sisters.

My sons, know that I love you.  I love you ever so much.  Never forget it.
