Part 3 of 4
President Monson
Small choices make big changes.
Choose the harder right over the easier wrong.
Bonnie L Oscarson
You may know it, but do you believe it? Knowledge and belief are two different things. Strive for belief.
Do we become so accustom to the blessings we get that we forget what it takes to get those blessing? This is how the pride cycle starts. People focus on all the sideline good things like the lifestyle, the culture, and the like of the church but overlook their own salvation and thus fall.
To believe we need to get the gospel form our heads into our hearts.
W. Christopher Waddell
Sometimes it's just hard for me to think about Jesus! Pain and sorrow is unavoidable. But our ability to face those trials with faith is what counts. Peace of mind is not avoiding the storms but in enduring them. Learn, Listen, Walk. Gain the information you need, Take it into your life (see believe vs knowledge above), ACT on what you know.
The peace we seek requires more than desire, it requires action. If you want peace you need to DO something.
D. Todd Christoferson
Fathers are unique and irreplaceable. Fatherhood is not merely supplementary to Motherhood, they are equal.
Prepare now for fatherhood, (assuming you're, y'know, a dude)
Quinten L Cook
See yourself in the temple. Get a goal to go there. For me the temple is a special place of meditation, where I can make sense of the world, or rather were I can step back from the world and understand it.
Dieter F Uchtdoft
If mad can rebuild a city then God can rebuild us. Healing can happen. Healing DOES happen. "There is no life so shattered that it cannot be restored". We don't need to know all things to be saved. We only need to be loved by Christ and have faith enough to follow him.
But nobody will be forced into heaven. If we want it, we can get it. If you cannot muster faith, you can hope. Start from where you are.
Obedience is not a popular word these days, but it is needed in the Gospel. It is the life blood of faith.
Obedience is a means to an end. It unleashes the true, divine, powerful version of yourself.
