Alma 60

Moroni underscores the critical nature of our own personal responsibility to do all we can to support, defend, and save ourselves:

21 Or do ye suppose that the Lord will still deliver us, while we sit upon our thrones and do not make use of the means which the Lord has provided for us?

I am to use all the talents, time, strength, and energy God has blessed me with to further His work.

This is an amazing, bold, fearless statement:

28 Yea, behold I do not fear your power nor your authority, but it is my God whom I fear; and it is according to his commandments that I do take my sword to defend the cause of my country, and it is because of your iniquity that we have suffered so much loss.

When faced with the temptation to sin, I can stand with Moroni and say:

34 And now behold, I, Moroni (Daniel Murff), am constrained, according to the covenant which I have made to keep the commandments of my God;

May I let my covenants with God constrain me from doing anything that would jeopardize them, and to do everything that would honor them and uphold them and live worthy of the blessings they bring me.

This statement is massive and poignant and powerful to me:

36 Behold, I am Moroni, your chief captain. I seek not for power, but to pull it down. I seek not for honor of the world, but for the glory of my God, and the freedom and welfare of my country. 

Sounds like a great personal motto to live by, every word of it.
