A Thank You to Peter

"There are many people who can do great things in this world. But there are many people who will make excuses".

No more excuses. I'm going to do things in this world.

"The driving force in our lives is not money. It is love. That is what wakes us up each morning-the hope that today, you will be loved by someone.

If you have shown love to someone, you have made their life better."



Thank you Peter, for all you have said. Your story is inspiring, and the way you have overcome has given me new sight.

"As He Died to Make Men Holy, Let Us Live to Make Men Free"

I have often been caused to reflect on all I have been given; all that has been given to each of us. My mind has often gone through the internal battle of, "Why?" I wish to hold nothing in reserve, and share what I truly believe. We have been given so much because our God believed that we would use these things to better this world and to bring to our fellow men the rights of humanity. Let us stand strong, with all our energy, and fight for all things right in this world.

We are here to stand for something. As President Faust once said, "We belong to the greatest cause on earth. They who are with us are greater than those who are against us". We can and we will do great things. We will stand strong together and fight for what is right in this world, against all odds. And I truly believe we will win. But we must first take the step to question ourselves: Are you up for the challenge?


This is my call to all of you, as friends and as brothers and sisters in humanity: to stand taller than we have stood, to be be stronger than we have been, and to press forward with new conviction and confidence. Believe in your power to do great things. The capacity of our generation is greater than we can imagine. There are great problems in today's world. But greater still is the strength within us when we fight together for change.
