As I have listened to the brethren speak upon the keynote topic as it has been characterized-obedience unto law, I have thought of and counted my blessings, and among them, have emphasized the blessing of being privileged to live here upon this land of America, and particularly within the confines of the United States, because it is a good country, but more than this, because of the government which God has given us in these United States. I do hope and pray that the people now inhabiting these lands will be brought to a realization of the necessity, for their own sake and the sake of their posterity, of living righteous lives and of seeking the God of this land and worshiping and serving him., that it may be unto us a land of promise and a choice land in very deed.
