In our home we've been doing an in-depth study of the Law of Consecration and what it really means for us today. Here, we share a few of our favorite messages in hopes that you, too, will make this a sincere study as "Zion cannot be built up unless it is by the principles of the law of the celestial kingdom..." D&C 105:5
“The word stewardship calls to mind the Lord’s law of consecration (see, for example, D&C 42:32, 53), which has an economic role but, more than that, is an application of celestial law to life here and now (see D&C 105:5)… True success in this life comes in consecrating our lives—that is, our time and choices—to God’s purposes (see John 17:1, 4; D&C 19:19). In so doing, we permit Him to raise us to our highest destiny.” (Reflections on a Consecrated Life – Elder D. Todd Christofferson)
