The scriptures teach us that we should “seek … earnestly the [very] best gifts” and that we should seek wisdom and understanding and “prepare every needful thing.” We are admonished to lose ourselves in the service of others and to seek those things that are “virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy.”
