Family is not always about blood, family are the people who accept you as you are. With family, love does not come with conditions. If you are lucky, you are born into that, sometimes it takes time to find that family. The gifted person will achieve enlightenment through the original source. The training of the schools we need today more than ever, the training of deft hands quick eyes and ears, and above all the broader, deeper, higher culture of gifted minds and pure hearts. The power of the ballot we need in sheer self-defense, else what shall save us from a second slavery? Freedom, too, the long-sought, we still seek, the freedom of life and limb, the freedom to work and think, the freedom to love and aspire. Work, culture, liberty—all these we need, not singly but together, not successively but together, each growing and assisting each, and all striving toward the vaster ideal that swims people the human people, the ideal of humanity, gained through the unifying ideal of race; the ideal of fostering and developing the traits and talents of the human, not in opposition to or contempt for other humans, the rather in large conformity to the greater ideals of the Republic, in order that someday in our homeland we may give to each other those characteristics we all so sadly lack. #RandolphHarris 1 of 6

We seem to be the sole oasis of simple faith and reverence in a dusty desert of dollars and smartness. As part of our Heavenly Father’s plan, he allowed sorrow to be woven into our mortal experience. While it seems that painful trials fall unevenly on us, we can be assured that to one degree or another, we all suffer and struggle. It is my prayer that the Holy Spirit will guide us to a greater understanding why this must be so. The responsivity to endure is uniquely yours. However, you are never alone. The lifting power of the Lord can be yours.  A people who have their hereditary and home threatened almost into obliteration by society ought not to be asked to race with the World, but rather give all their time and thought to their own social problems until they are able to overcome them. Torture is the act of deliberately inflicting physical or psychological pain in order to fulfill some desire of the torturer or compel some action from the victim. Amendment VII of the United States Constitution reports that cruel and unusual punishment shall not be inflicted. #RandolphHarris 2 of 6

 If an agency, other than law enforcement tries to restrict you to your house or a certain area that is called false imprisonment. False imprisonment is when a person is restricted in their personal movement within any area without justification or consent. False imprisonment is a common-law felony and a tort. The dead-weight of social degradation is often partially masked by bigots who pretend to be upright members and the community. Though they may not make distasteful comments in public, their actions are often harsh and illegal. And they even assault people. Energy is always required to provide life over opposing forces. These same laws apply in our personal lives. Whenever an undertaking is begun, both the energy and the will to endure are essential. If you want to gain an education, you do not drop out along the way—just as you do not pay to dine at an elegant restaurant only to walk away after sampling the salad. Whatever your work may be, endure at the beginning, endure through opposing forces along the way, and endure to the end. Your life is very important, not only to you, but also your family and the community. People you may not even realize care about you and your well-being. #RandolphHarris 3 of 6

Any job must be completed before you can enjoy the results for which you are working.  Amendment XIV Section 1 of the United States Constitution states: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Stick to your task until it becomes like a second nature to you. Beginners are many, but enders are few. Honor, power, place, and praise will always come to the one who stays. Sometimes the need to endure comes when facing a physical challenge. Anyone afflicted with a serious illness or with the infirmities of ages hopes to be able to endure to the end of such trials. Most often, intense physical challenges are accompanied by spiritual challenges as well. #RandolphHarris 4 of 6

Think of the early pioneers. What if they had not endured the hardships of their westward migration? There would be so sesquicentennial celebration this year. Steadfastly they endured—through persecution, expulsion, a governmental order of extermination, expropriation of property, and much more. Their enduring faith in the Lord provided life of them as it will for you and me. The Lord’s ultimate concern is for the salvation and exaltation of each individual soul. Loyalty to the Lord carries an obligation go loyalty to those called by the Lord to lead. Without a strong commitment to the Lord, an individual is more prone to have a low level of commitment to anything in life. Weak commitments to eternal covenants lead to losses of eternal consequences. If we keep God’s commandments and endure to the end, we shall have eternal life, which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God. God has everything, he can create planets and universes and go anywhere he wants without depending on anyone. God can raise the dead, and all he wants from us is obedience, honesty, loyalty and faith. #RandolphHarris 5 of 6

People claim to be Gods because they got a taste of power, a little money, and use their material resources to steal from others and hurt them. However, God is not evil. God is all good. God has everything, he is rich. He does not need anything we have, all he wants is our love and devotion. Each of you who really wants to endure the glorious end that our Heavenly Father has foreseen should firmly establish some person priorities. With many interests competing for our loyalty, we all need to be care first to stay safely on the boat. No one can serve two masters. If Satan can get you to love anything—fun, flirtation, fame, or fortune—more than the Lord with whom you have made sacred covenants to endure, the adversary begins to triumph. When faced with such temptations, we find that strength comes from commitments made well in advance. God will put his laws in our hearts, and we will be his people. When priorities are proper, the power to endure is increased. And when internalized, those priorities will help us from going overboard. They will protect us in life. Your responsibility to endure is uniquely yours, but you are never alone. Love God with all your might, mind, and strength. #RandolphHarris 6 of 6
