Discourse 1865-09-13
Elder W. Woodruff touched upon the bondage of evil and the liberty guaran- teed in the gospel. He spoke of the force and power of habit, and exhorted the Saints to so accustom themselves to doing right that by being habituated in it they would not be able to feel con- tented while any duty remained unper- formed which might be required of them. He encouraged them to abide the counsel of the President in attend- ing to their temporal duties as readily as they would if called to go on mis- sions.
