“You
may enjoy music, athletics, or be mechanically inclined, and someday
you may work in a trade or a profession or in the arts. As important as
such activities and occupations can be, they do not define who we are.
First and foremost, we are spiritual beings. We are sons [and daughters]
of God and the seed of Abraham” (“Becoming a Missionary,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2005, 47).
