Image
Faith is a real power, not just an expression of belief.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
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
Image
The choice of life is not between fame and fortune, nor wealth and poverty, but between good and evil.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
The atonement of Christ is not just for those who sin. The mercy of Christ encompasses all pain.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
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
Image
I hope to be judged as good a man as my father. Before I hear those words well done from my Heavenly Father, I hope to first hear them from my mortal father.

Boyd K. Packer
Image
We are not obedient because we are blind, we are obedient because we can see.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
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
Image
Life moves all too fast. When you feel weak, discouraged, depressed, or afraid, open the Book of Mormon and read.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
Family time is sacred time and should be protected and respected.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
Your responsibility as a father and a husband transcends any other interest in life.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
No service in the Church or in the community transcends that given in the home.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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.
Boyd K. Packer
Image
Parents now are concerned about the moral and spiritual diseases. These can have terrible complications when standards and values are abandoned. We must all take protective measures.
