It is a walking advertisement for what immersing yourself in the Gospel can do for you. How can you look at these fine young men and not know that there is definitely something to this church?!
It reminds me of this famous quote by Pres. Ezra Taft Benson:
Yes, men and women who turn their lives over to God will find out that he can make a lot more out of their lives than they can. He will deepen their joys, expand their vision, quicken their minds, strengthen their muscles, lift their spirits, multiply their blessings, increase their opportunities, comfort their souls, raise up friends, and pour out peace.
Pres. Benson, BYU Devotional 10 December 1974
I would also like to add this quote:
True success in this life comes in consecrating our lives—that is, our time and choices—to God’s purposes (see John 17:1, 4; D&C 19:19). In so doing, we permit Him to raise us to our highest destiny.
D. Todd Christofferson, Reflections on a Consecrated Life, November 2010 Ensign
