[MUSIC PLAYING] The living Lord leads
His living Church. The Lord reveals His will for
the Church to His prophet. Yesterday, after we were
invited to sustain Thomas S. Monson as President
of the Church, we also had the
privilege to sustain him, the counselors in
the First Presidency, and members of the Quorum of
the Twelve Apostles as prophets, seers, and revelators. Think of that. We sustain 15 men
as prophets of God. They hold all the
priesthood keys that have ever been conferred
upon man in this dispensation. The calling of 15 men
to the holy apostleship provides great protection for
us as members of the Church. Why? Because decisions of these
leaders must be unanimous. Can you imagine how the Spirit
needs to move upon 15 men to bring about unanimity? These 15 men have varied
educational and professional backgrounds, with differing
opinions about many things. Trust me, these 15
men--prophets, seers, and revelators--know what
the will of the Lord is when unanimity is reached. They are committed to see
that the Lord's will truly will be done. The Lord's Prayer
provides the pattern for each of these 15
men when they pray: "Thy will be done on
earth as it is in heaven."
