Accountability, Part 2

I was looking up quotes and such that go with accountability. And I loved this one:

“God judges men according to the use they make of the light which He gives them.”

—Joseph Smith, in History of the Church, 5:401

I think it refers to the most important part of accountability (and our agency--since those two go hand-in-hand). Heavenly Father gives us so much. To me, one of the best things He has given us is the light of Christ. We have a responsibility with that light, since we were given that light to make use of it. So we are accountable for what we do (or don't do) with that light.
