1 On the third of October, in the year nineteen hundred and eighteen, I sat in my room apondering over the scriptures;
2 And areflecting upon the great batoning csacrifice that was made by the Son of God, for the dredemption of the world;
3 And the great and wonderful alove made manifest by the Father and the Son in the coming of the bRedeemer into the world;
4 That through his aatonement, and by bobedience to the principles of the gospel, mankind might be saved.
5 While I was thus engaged, my mind reverted to the writings of the apostle Peter, to the aprimitive saints scattered abroad throughout bPontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, and other parts of Asia, where the gospel had been cpreached after the crucifixion of the Lord.
6 I opened the Bible and read the athird and fourth chapters of the first epistle of Peter, and as I read I was greatly bimpressed, more than I had ever been before, with the following passages:
7) – Return and Report on Your Work – Your Success – Your Work with Power of God in your life.

When Elder Ballard was a young bishop, a rowdy nine-year-old boy caused his Primary teacher a lot of angst. After several weeks the teacher escorted the boy into the bishop’s office and said, ‘Bishop, here’s one of your flock. Tend it.’
Bishop Ballard wasn’t sure what to do. But at that moment an impression came: ask the child to report every week about his behavior in Primary. Bishop Ballard issued that challenge, and it changed the boy’s attitude. The child saw that he could do things differently.
‘I didn’t have that idea of accountability in mind before he landed on my doorstep,’ Elder Ballard says. ‘But the Lord, by the power of the Spirit, inspires a worthy and a righteous teacher or leader to know what to do and what to say to bring the best out of anyone, in particular our young people.’
Incidentally, that nine-year-old turned out to be ‘terrific,’ Elder Ballard says. He served a mission, married in the temple, and became a great leader.”
