In fast and testimony meeting two days ago, a recently returned missionary stood up and bore her testimony. One of the brothers before her had bore his testimony and mentioned how grateful he was that we live in a land of liberty... the United States. (It was the day before Independence Day, so I suppose everyone's thoughts were on that.) But this returned missionary had just returned from Peru. And she mentioned how grateful she was that we are all members of God's restored church. But then she went on to say that it isn't enough to be members -- we must be saints.
That is how we officially refer to ourselves, as saints, so it makes sense that we should live according to the title. In Spanish, santo is the same word that means "holy." Do we live in a way that we are holy? I hope we all do. And if we don't, we can always strive to do better.
