visiting teaching message:
Becoming Self-Reliant~
Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said: "As we live
providently and increase our gifts and talents, we become more self-reliant.
Self-reliance is taking responsibility for our own spiritual and temporal welfare
and for those whom Heavenly Father has entrusted to our care. Only when we
are self-reliant can we truly emulate the Savior in serving and blessing others."
