Self-Reliance/Provident Living #4

“Being provident providers, we must keep that most basic commandment, ‘Thou shalt not covet’(Exodus 20:17). Our world is fraught with feelings of entitlement. . . . If our family does not have everything the neighbors have, . . . we go into debt to buy things we can’t afford,and things we do not really need. Whenever we do this, we become poor temporally and spiritually”
Elder Robert D. Hales, "Becoming Provident Providers Temporally and Spiritually," General Conference May 2009
