More quotes by Boyd K. Packer
What a wonderful time to be young. You will see events in your lifetime that will test your courage and extend your faith. If you will face the sunlight of truth, the shadows of discouragement and sin and error will fall behind you. You must never give up!
Boyd K. Packer
We were given our agency. We must use it wisely and remain close to the Spirit otherwise, we foolishly find ourselves yielding to the enticements of the adversary.
Boyd K. Packer
An organist who has the sensitivity to quietly play prelude music from the hymnbook tempers our feelings and causes us to go over in our minds the lyrics which teach the peaceable things of the kingdom. If we will listen, they are teaching the gospel, for the hymns of the Restoration are, in fact, a course in doctrine!
Boyd K. Packer
Addiction has the capacity to disconnect the human will and nullify moral agency. It can rob one of the power to decide.
Boyd K. Packer
Seek worthy companions. Attend church faithfully. Never fail daily to seek for help through prayer. And I promise you that the way will be easier and you shall have a composure of mind and a confident attitude toward life and the future. You shall be warned of dangers and shall be guided through the whisperings of the Holy Spirit.
Boyd K. Packer
There's no credit buying on eternal things, none at all. Anything that is worthwhile has to be paid for in advance.
Boyd K. Packer
Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.
Boyd K. Packer
When music is presented which, however appropriate for other occasions, does not fit the Sabbath, much is lost. . . . The Spirit does not ratify speech nor confirm music which lacks spiritual substance.
Boyd K. Packer
Parents are with their children almost constantly and can observe when they are ready to be instructed. From questions or behavior or because of experiences in their own lives, they can sense that it is time to teach. Parents must know when the time for the lesson is now, right now, for their children are ready for it.
Boyd K. Packer
Keep the fire of your testimony of the restored gospel and your witness of our Redeemer burning so brightly that our children can warm their hands by the fire of your faith.
Boyd K. Packer
Mature love has a bliss not even imagined by newlyweds.
Boyd K. Packer
The flak is always the heaviest closest to the target
Boyd K. Packer
Like most things of great worth, knowledge which is of eternal value comes only through personal prayer and pondering. These, joined with fasting and scripture study, will invite impressions and revelations and the whisperings of the Holy Spirit. This provides us with instruction from on high as we learn precept upon precept.
Boyd K. Packer
If you understand the great plan of happiness and follow it, what goes on in the world will not determine your happiness.
Boyd K. Packer
We are not obedient because we are blind, we are obedient because we can see.
Boyd K. Packer
Music can set an atmosphere of worship which invites [the] spirit of revelation, of testimony.
Boyd K. Packer
However common irreverence and profanity become, they are nonetheless wrong
Boyd K. Packer
The spiritually starving hesitate to partake of the Spirit like a child's reaction to new and strange food. They must be offered a tiny bite on a spoon.
Boyd K. Packer
If you have seen one of the temples at night, fully lighted, you know what an impressive sight that can be. The house of the Lord, bathed in light, standing out in the darkness, becomes symbolic of the power and the inspiration of the gospel of Jesus Christ standing as a beacon in a world that sinks ever further into spiritual darkness.
Boyd K. Packer
The Restoration began with the prayer of a 14-year-old boy and a vision of the Father and the Son. The dispensation of the fulness of times was ushered in.
