"Just as when one loses his life to God he really finds the abundant life;so also, when one sacrifices all to God, then God in return shares all that he has with him. Try as you may, you cannot put the Lord in your debt-for every time you try to do his will he simply pours out more blessings upon you. Sometimes the blessings may seem to you to be a little slow in coming; perhaps this tests your faith, but come they will and abundantly"

Ezra TaftBenson, BYU Speeches of the Year 1974 [1975], 311
