Robert D. Hales -Meeting the Challenges of Today's World
- We need to tighten our grip on the rod that leads us back to Him. Now is the "day of choosing" for all of us.
- Never deliberately fly into a thunderstorm. Instead, fly around it, take another route, or wait for the storm to clear before landing.
- You are the pilots. You are responsible to think about the consequences of every choice you make.
- Your righteous choices will keep you from getting off course.
- The Lord will always keep His promise: "I will lead you along." The only question is, will we let ourselves be led?
- You are rich if you can live happily within your means.
- Knowledge does away with darkness, suspense and doubt; for these cannot exist where knowledge is.
- None of us marry perfection; we marry potential.
- Begin exercising your faith in every area of your life. If you don't, you will suffer what I would call "faith atrophy." The very strength needed to exercise your faith will be diminished. So exercise your faith every day, and you will "wax stronger and stronger ... and firmer and firmer in the faith of Christ."
- Be careful about taking advice from your peers. If you want more than you now have, reach up, and not across!
- Remember, no one can reach upward on your behalf.
Jeffrey R. Holland -Behold Thy Mother
- No love in mortality comes closer to approximating the pure love of Jesus Christ than the selfless love a devoted mother has for her child.
- Maternal love has to be divine.
Bradley D. Foster -It's Never Too Early and It's Never Too Late
- We cannot let society give our family a makeover in the image of the world.
- There is a difference between hearing and understanding. If our children merely hear but do not understand the gospel, then the door is left open for Satan to remove these truths from their hearts.
Hugo Montoya -Tested and Tempted--but Helped
- Smile. This small action can help those who are overwhelmed or burdened.
- First-go the second mile. Second--please smile. Your smile will help others. Third--express compassion.
Vern P. Stanfill -Choose the Light
- No matter how intense the darkness of doubt, we choose how long and to what extent we allow it to influence us.
- while we are struggling in the darkness, there is nothing wrong with relying temporarily upon the light of those who love us and have our best interests at heart.
- Those who truly love us can help us build our faith.
- Doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith.
- There is no darkness so dense, so menacing, or so difficult that it cannot be overcome by light.
James B. Martino -Turn to Him and Answers Will Come
- Mortal life is not easy for any of us. We are placed on earth to be tried and tested. Our response to life's experiences will often greatly influence our testimonies.
- Do not give up! Never give up!
- If you have been tempted to murmur, if you have had doubt that leads to unbelief, if trials seem more than you can bear, turn to Him.
Dallin H. Oaks -Strengthened by the Atonement of Jesus Christ
- I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
- Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot cure.
Until you next read these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
-Sarnic Dirchi
