Discipleship ~ President Ezra Taft Benson

That man is greatest and most blessed and joyful whose life most closely fits the pattern of the Christ. This has nothing to do with earthly wealth, power, or prestige. The only true test of greatness, blessedness, joyfulness is how close a life can come to being like the Master, Jesus Christ. He is the right way, the full truth, and the abundant life.

~ President Ezra Taft Benson, "Jesus Christ -- Gifts and Expectations," BYU Devotional, December 10, 1974.
