More quotes by Boyd K. Packer
Without a knowledge of the gospel plan, transgression seems natural, innocent, even justified.
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
Freedom is not a self-preserving gift. It has to be earned, and it has to be protected.
Boyd K. Packer
Do you realize how marvelous it is that you can call upon the Atonement? The Lord effected the Atonement for our sakes. And there isn’t anything that you can’t repent from and that you can’t be rescued from if you will repent and be determined to make the decision.
Boyd K. Packer
Ordinances and covenants become our credentials for admission into His presence. To worthily receive them is the quest of a lifetime to keep them thereafter is the challenge of mortality.
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
Everyone is tested. One might think it is unfair to be singled out and subjected to a particular temptation, but this is the purpose of mortal life—to be tested. And the answer is the same for everyone: we must, and we can, resist temptations of any kind.
Boyd K. Packer
Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.
Boyd K. Packer
There is a temptation for the writer or the teacher of Church history to want to tell everything, whether it is worthy or faith promoting or not. Some things that are true are not very useful.
Boyd K. Packer
Nowhere are the generosity and the kindness and mercy of God more manifest than in repentance.
Boyd K. Packer
It has to be an awfully good meeting to beat having no meeting at all.
Boyd K. Packer
Perhaps no other book has been denounced so vigorously by those who have never read it as has the Book of Mormon.
Boyd K. Packer
The Spirit is a voice that one feels more than hears.
Boyd K. Packer
Mature love has a bliss not even imagined by newlyweds.
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
The gospel teaches us to be happy, to have faith rather than fear, to find hope and overcome despair, to leave darkness and turn toward the light of the everlasting gospel.
Boyd K. Packer
The guilt that accompanies mistakes can be washed away.
Boyd K. Packer
Thoughts, like water, will stay on course if we make a place for them to go. As you learn to control your thoughts, you can gain courage, conquer fear and have a happy life.
Boyd K. Packer
Some people think a miracle is only a miracle if it happens instantaneously, but miracles can grow slowly and patience and faith can compel things to happen that otherwise never would have come to pass.
