The end of all activity in the church is to see that a man and a woman with their children are happy at home, sealed for eternity.
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
One of the adversary's sharpest tools is to convince us that we are no longer worthy to pray. No matter who you are or what you may have done, you can always pray.
Boyd K. Packer
If you need a transfusion of spiritual strength then just ask for it. We call that Prayer. Prayer is powerful spiritual medicine.
Boyd K. Packer
The Lord will bless us as we attend to the sacred ordinance work of the temples. Blessings there will not be limited to our temple service. We will be blessed in all of our affairs.
Boyd K. Packer
Those who speak of blind obedience may appear to know many things, but they do not understand the doctrines of the gospel. There is an obedience that comes from a knowledge of the truth that transcends any external form of control. We are not obedient because we are blind, we are obedient because we can see.
Boyd K. Packer
There are few things more powerful than the faithful prayers of a righteous mother.
Boyd K. Packer
However common irreverence and profanity become, they are nonetheless wrong
Boyd K. Packer
Music can set an atmosphere of worship which invites [the] spirit of revelation, of testimony.
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
We are not obedient because we are blind, we are obedient because we can see.
Boyd K. Packer
The priesthood holds consummate power. It can protect you from the plague of pornography-and it is a plague-if you are succumbing to its influence. If one is obedient, the priesthood can show how to break a habit and even erase an addiction. Holders of the priesthood have that authority and should employ it to combat evil influences.
Boyd K. Packer
Reverence invites Revelation
Boyd K. Packer
The rapid, sweeping deterioration of values is characterized by a preoccupation-even an obsession-with the procreative act. Abstinence before marriage and fidelity within it are openly scoffed at-marriage and parenthood ridiculed as burdensome, unnecessary. Modesty, a virtue of a refined individual or society, is all but gone.
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.
Boyd K. Packer
How grateful we are for you, our youth.
Boyd K. Packer
The idea that life began with mortal birth is preposterous. There is no way to explain life if you believe that.
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 lifeāto be tested. And the answer is the same for everyone: we must, and we can, resist temptations of any kind.
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
Dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.
Boyd K. Packer
