“Thinketh No Evil”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

6. Thinks no evil. Such persons’ minds are on things of righteousness, their desires are for that which builds and strengthens and encourages. They have no secret agenda, no private yearnings for personal aggrandizement, only a heart focused on the Lord and his kingdom. “Behold,” Nephi wrote, “my soul delighteth in the things of the Lord; and my heart pondereth continually upon the things which I have seen and heard” (2 Nephi 4:16).
