Smith The Lord is not so concerned about what we study or what profession we follow as long as it is an honest living. Eldred G. Smith honeststudylong Have you taught a Sunday School class and felt when you finished that you had really taught someone some principle of the gospel that had really helped him or given him a brighter look on life?
