Day Quote by Henry B. Eyring
“You may feel overwhelmed by your own poverty and the labors of the day. But if you decide not to wait until you have more strength and more money, and if you pray for the Holy Spirit as you go, you will, when you arrive, know what to do and how to help someone even poorer than you are.”

![“[Praying] demands that you take to the road again and again, leaving your house and looking forward to a new land for yourself and your [fellow human]. This is why praying demands poverty, that is, the readiness to live a life in which you have nothing to lose so that you always begin afresh.” quote by Anonymous](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/52d/anonymous-1_demand_praying-demands-that-you-take-to-the-roa_3186897.jpg)
