Therefore this shall ye observe, and make it your law to do your business by the voice of the people. And if the time comes that the voice of the people doth choose iniquity, then is the time that the judgments of God will come upon you; Mosiah 13:36-37
This Tuesday we have the right and responsibility to go to the polls to do the business of our great nation “by the voice of the people.” The responsibility that we have is to make our decisions in a manner that chooses what is right and good in the eyes of our Maker, for if we don’t we invite condemnation upon the land.
This is a choice land, consecrated by the Lord, set apart from the world and promised liberty if its citizens will serve Him. It is that liberty that made possible the restoration of the Gospel in the latter days. The freedom and prosperity that we enjoy facilitate the accomplishment of the Church’s duty to spread the gospel to “every kindred, nation, tongue and people.”
As we meet together this day in the Lord’s house, let us implore Him that He would inspire us as citizens of this great nation to make wise choices in the election of those who will govern.
Your servant,
Dan
