Jesus Christ lives, knows us, watches over us, and cares for us. In moments of pain, loneliness, or confusion, we do not need to see Jesus Christ to know that He is aware of our circumstances and that His mission is to bless.
The children of God have more in common then they have differences.
The message of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ is that we can and must expect to become better as long as we live.
The Lord will give you, if you ask, the feelings of the compassion He feels for those in need.
Acting on even a twig of faith allows God to grow it.
It is never too late to strengthen the foundation of faith. There is always time. With faith in the Savior, you can repent and plead for forgiveness. There is someone you can forgive. There is someone you can thank. There is someone you can serve and lift. You can do it wherever you are and however alone and deserted you may feel.
Love invites the Holy Ghost to be present to confirm truth. And the joy of learning divine truths creates love in the hearts of people who shared the experience of learning.
The fruit of keeping covenants is the companionship of the Holy Ghost and an increase in the power to love.
For each of us, life is a journey. Heavenly Father designed it for us out of love. Each of us has unique experiences and characteristics, but our journey began in the same place before we were born into this world.
We lighten the loads of others best by helping the Lord strengthen them.
Heavenly Father hears your prayers, He loves you. He knows your name. He loves you beyond your ability to comprehend.
We never need to feel that we are alone or unloved in the Lord's service because we never are. We can feel the love of God. The Savior has promised angels on our left and our right to bear us up. And He always keeps His word.
The good works that really matter require the help of heaven. And the help of heaven requires working past the point of fatigue so far that only the meek and lowly will keep going long enough. The Lord doesn't put us through this test just to give us a grade; he does it because the process will change us.
If the foundation of faith is not embedded in our hearts, the power to endure will crumble.
