Moral Agency By Elder D. Todd Christofferson Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles Ensign, Jun 2009, 46–53 From a devotional address delivered January 31, 2006, at Brigham Young University Testing as Part of the Essential Experience A consistent effort will educate and refine our desires so that in time our desires will become aligned with the Father’s. But we should expect to be tested. The gift of agency is intended to give us experience. We “taste the bitter, that [we] may know to prize the good” ( Moses 6:55 ).
