In the D&C we read a familiar verse that reminds us that if we don't have the Spirit, we should not teach. The Spirit will be given to us by the prayer of faith. D&C 42:14 "And the Spirit shall be given unto you by the prayer of faith; and if ye receive not the Spirit ye shall not teach."
In the Old Testament we read a warning not to be quick to become angry because anger rests in the bosom of fools. Next time we're upset and in danger of losing our temper, this would be a good thing to remember, and to avoid being foolish. Ecclesiastes 7:9 "Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools."
A verse with a thought booklet tells us that God is our strength and our protection. When our heart trusts in Him, we are helped. This should all make our hearts leap for joy as we sing praises unto Him. Psalms 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him."
