When coupled with faith, repentance opens our access to the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Experience the strengthening power of daily repentance—of doing and being a little better each day.

When we choose to repent, we choose to change! We allow the Savior to transform us into the best version of ourselves. We choose to grow spiritually and receive joy—the joy of redemption in Him.

Brethren, we need to do better and be better because we are in a battle. The battle with sin is real. The adversary is quadrupling his efforts to disrupt testimonies and impede the work of the Lord. He is arming his minions with potent weapons to keep us from partaking of the joy and love of the Lord.

Repentance is the key to avoiding misery inflicted by traps of the adversary. The Lord does not expect perfection from us at this point in our eternal progression. But He does expect us to become increasingly pure. Daily repentance is the pathway to purity, and purity brings power. Personal purity can make us powerful tools in the hands of God. Our repentance—our purity—will empower us to help in the gathering of Israel.

We know what will give us greater access to the powers of heaven. We also know what will hinder our progress—what we need to stop doing to increase our access to the powers of heaven. Brethren, prayerfully seek to understand what stands in the way of your repentance. Identify what stops you from repenting. And then, change! All of us can do better and be better than ever before. There are specific ways in which we can likely improve.

One is in the way we treat our bodies. I stand in awe of the miracle of the human body. It is a magnificent creation, essential to our gradual ascent toward our ultimate divine potential. We cannot progress without it. In giving us the gift of a body, God has allowed us to take a vital step toward becoming more like Him. Satan understands this. He chafes at the fact that his premortal apostasy permanently disqualifies him from this privilege, leaving him in a constant state of jealousy and resentment.

Thus many, if not most, of the temptations he puts in our path cause us to abuse our bodies or the bodies of others. Because Satan is miserable without a body, he wants us to be miserable because of ours. Your body is your personal temple, created to house your eternal spirit. Now, I ask you, brethren, are you more interested in dressing and grooming your body to appeal to the world than to please God?

Your answer to this question sends a direct message to Him about your feelings regarding His transcendent gift to you. When John Donne wrote "for whom the bell tolls" and Bo Diddley asked "who do you love? The answer is both of them. It goes back to formal and informal registers.

Bo's got a cobra snake for a necktie. Not the kind of guy, I suggest, who would say something wussy like "whom do you love? The relaxed tone we prefer these days makes whom increasingly optional, unlike in Donne's day.

The elegant formality of his prose has an eloquence and resonance that "for who the bell tolls" lacks. Good title for a book, though. Don't be alarmed by the unhelpful terms, but restrictive relative clauses also known as defining, best thought of as giving essential information by narrowing it down are not enclosed by commas, whereas non-restrictive relative clauses non-defining, giving non-essential information are.

It gives extra information, is preceded by a comma, and if you try it with "that" it sounds odd "this house, that Jack built". It's not the same the other way round: although that is more common in restrictive clauses, you can use which: "This is the house which John built. To simplify things, here's my easy-to-remember formula: Restrictive clauses: that desirable , no comma essential.

Non-restrictive clauses : which, comma both essential. Compare to means liken to; compare with means make a comparison. So I might compare Lionel Messi with Diego Maradona to assess their relative merits, then conclude that Messi can be compared to Maradona — he is a similarly great player.

The two phrases have usefully distinct meanings and, although "compare to" can be replaced by "liken to", it's clumsier to replace "compare with" with another phrase. Yes, more off-putting terms for what is a straightforward enough rule: be consistent. Gerry Goffin and Carole King, who composed the Monkees' hit Pleasant Valley Sunday, wrote: "The local rock group down the street is tryin' hard to learn their song.

But wait, I hear you cry. Who says a rock group are singular? There were, after all, four of them, too busy singing to put anybody down. Quite so. If I had wandered into the Brill Building in New York and caught Goffin or King's ear at the time, I would have politely suggested "are tryin' hard to learn their song" as the answer. Collective nouns can be singular or plural.

Treat as singular when the noun is a single unit, but plural when it is more a collection of individuals, for example: "The family can trace its history back to the middle ages; the family were sitting down, scratching their heads. The easy way not to mix them up is to remember that lay is a transitive verb it takes an object ; lie is intransitive. If you lay a table or an egg, or you lay something down, the past tense is laid.

If you lie down, the past tense is lay. You will note that strictly — as Bob Dylan was inviting the lady in question to lie down across his big brass bed, rather than reporting that she had done so in the past — he should have sung "Lie Lady Lie" rather than "Lay Lady Lay".

If you try singing it like that, however, it sounds Australian, which would not really have worked on an album called Nashville Skyline. Yeah, yeah, yeah! And a great video. Every Little Thing She Does is Magic — The Police The subject is a five-word clause; the verb is "is"; the sentence is completed by the complement: magic.
