    Promises To Keep Before I Sleep

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 8, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,933 views

Sainthood is not some magic status, conferred by the church for merit or miracles; sainthood is ordinary people living in extraordinary faithfulness, making promises and keeping them.
