I have the power to choose, and I am responsible for my own learning.

Ua ia te a’u le mana e filifili ai, ma e nafa a’u ma lo’u lava aoaoina.

O oe o se atalii/afafine o le Atua e i ai le mana e filifili ai ma galue mo oe lava ia. Ua taua lenei mana o le faitalia. Ua aoao mai e Liae, o se perofeta i le Tusi a Mamona, ia i tatou e le pei i tatou o papa, o loo faatalitali mo se tasi e suia i tatou ma uunaia i tatou. O i tatou o sui e mafai ona filifili mo i tatou lava po o a mea tatou te talitonu i ai, mea tatou te faia, ma po o ai tatou te avea ai. Na aoao mai Liae:

“Sa ia [Atua] foafoaina mea uma, … o mea e gaoioi ma mea e faagaoioi. … O le mea lea, na tuuina mai ai e le Alii le Atua i le tagata ia tatau ona ia fai mo ia lava” (2 Nifae 2:14, 16).

E mafai ona e filifili e aoao ma faaleleia atili. E mafai ona fesoasoani lou faiaoga ma isi tagata aoao i lau vaega o talanoaga ia te oe, ae i le iuga, o au filifiliga o le a sili ona aafia ai lau aoaoga. E mafai ona e galue mo oe lava ia e faataitai le Igilisi i aso uma. Pe a tulai mai ni faafitauli, saili ni vaifofo. Ua tuuina atu ia te oe le faitalia—le mana mai le Atua e galue ai. E mafai ona e tauavea le tiute mo lou lava aoaoina.
