Discourse 1891-08-09
Pres W. Woodruff, felt thankful for the privilege of meeting with the L. D. S. in this Stake. Seek first the Kingdom of God &c. The Prophets and Apostles in every age have been called to preach the Kingdom of God. They did not pay attention to what they should eat or drink, or wear. It is so in this day. The Saints in those days had the Holy Ghost so much so that they could see the eternal reward for them which was ahead. They sealed their testimony with their blood. Our mission is to prepare the world for the second coming of our Saviour. We must not deviate from the way laid down by God through His servants. Referred to the establishment of the Gospel in the Sandwich Islands and Bro Cannons administrations his faithfulness and integrity and the success which has crowned his labors. Our reward is not in this life. He would like to live to see the Temple in Salt Lake City dedicated. Prayed God to bless the congregation and His work in all the world in the name of Jesus.
