"The path of the just is as the shining light.
Proverbs 4:18
It is good to look to the past to gain appreciation for the present and perspective for the future. It is good to look upon the virtues of those who have gone before, to gain strength for whatever lies ahead. It is good to reflect upon the work of those who labored so hard and gained so little in this world, but one of whose dreams and early plans, so well nurtured, has come a great harvest of which we are the beneficiaries. Their tremendous example can become a compelling motivation for us all, for each of us, is a pioneer in his own life, often in his own family, and many of us pioneer daily in trying to establish a gospel foothold in distant parts of the world."

"Every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour
1 Corinthians 3:8
The monumental deeds of the pioneers descend as a weighty trust upon our shoulders. Those deeds are theirs, not ours. Their works cannot redound to our glory, but to our responsibility. We may claim no honor, no reward, no respect, nor special position, recognition, or credit because of what our forefathers were or what they wrought. We stand upon our own feet in our own shoes. We must develop our own understanding, rise by our own labor, and lift our own voices in living testimony."
