Obedience to the Father RIght Now

"Some will inquire, "Do you suppose we will finish this temple, Brother Brigham!" I have had such questions put to me already. My answer is, I do not know, and I do not care. . . . I have never cared but for one thing, and that is, simply to know that I am now right before my Father in Heaven. If I am this moment, this day, doing the things God requires of my hands, and precisely where my Father in Heaven wants me to be, I care no more about tomorrow than though it never would come. I do not know where I shall be tomorrow, nor do I know when this temple will be done. . . .

"This I do know―there should be a temple built here. I do know it is the duty of this people to commence to build a temple."

Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 1, p. 132
