1 Samuel 16:7 Judge others the way God does

Elder Marvin J Ashton taught"

"We … tend to evaluate others on the basis of physical, outward appearance: their 'good looks,' their social status, ..or their economic situations.

"The Lord, however, has a different standard by which he measures a person…

"When the Lord measures an individual … He measures the heart as an indicator of the person's capacity and potential to bless others...   

"The measure of our hearts is the measure of our total performance.  As used by the Lord, the ‘heart’ of a person describes his effort to better self, or others, or the conditions he confronts.”

(Marvin J. Ashton, in Conference Report, Oct. 1988, 17; or Ensign, Nov. 1988, 15). 

Moses 3:3. Sabbath Day Observance

President Nelson Taught:

How do we hallow the Sabbath day? In my much younger years, I studied the work of others who had compiled lists of things to do and things not to do on the Sabbath. It wasn’t until later that I learned from the scriptures that my conduct and my attitude on the Sabbath constituted a sign between me and my Heavenly Father.¹² With that understanding, I no longer needed lists of dos and don’ts. When I had to make a decision whether or not an activity was appropriate for the Sabbath, I simply asked myself, “What sign do I want to give to God?” That question made my choices about the Sabbath day crystal clear.(“The Sabbath is a delight, President Nelson, April 2015 General Conference.)
