"Man's desires are fed and nurtured by the food-thoughts, be they degenerate or holy," wrote President Spencer W. Kimball in Faith Precedes the Miracle.
" `For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.' (Prov. 23:7.)"Amulek, the prophet, reminded us:
" `For our words will condemn us, yea, all our works will condemn us; we shall not be found spotless; and our thoughts will also condemn us; and in this awful state we shall not dare to look up to our God; and we would fain be glad if we could command the rocks and the mountains to fall upon us to hide us from his presence.' " (Alma 12:14.)
