The more we devote ourselves to the pursuit of holiness and happiness, the less likely we will be on a path to regrets.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Even the smallest act of discipleship or the tiniest ember of belief can become a blazing bonfire of a consecrated life.

Image
Love should be our walk and our talk.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Spiritual light rarely comes to those who merely sit in the darkness waiting for someone to flick the switch.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Latter-day Saints are not asked to blindly accept everything they hear. We are encouraged to think and discover truth for ourselves. We are expected to ponder, to search, to evaluate, and thereby to come to a personal knowledge of the truth.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Like the shepherds of old, we need to say in our hearts, “Let us see this thing which is come to pass.” We need to desire it in our hearts. Let us see the Holy One of Israel in the manger, in the temple, on the mount, and on the cross. Like the shepherds, let us glorify and praise God for these tidings of great joy!
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Since the beginning of time, love has been the source of both the highest bliss and the heaviest burdens. At the heart of misery from the days of Adam until today, you will find the love of wrong things. And at the heart of joy, you will find the love of good things.And the greatest of all good things is God.

Hope is a gift of the Spirit. It is a hope that through the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the power of His Resurrection, we shall be raised unto life eternal and this because of our faith in the Savior.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
We cannot and we must not allow ourselves to get distracted from our sacred duty. We cannot and we must not lose focus on the things that matter most.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Let us prepare for that blessed day when He will come again. Let us be as wise as those ancients who watched for His coming.

Rise up and become the person you were meant to be.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Your Heavenly Father knows that you will make mistakes. He knows that you will stumble-perhaps many times. This saddens Him, but He loves you. He does not wish to break your spirit. On the contrary, He desires that you rise up and become the person you were designed to be.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
In these simple words, Lord, is it I? lies the beginning of wisdom and the pathway to personal conversion and lasting change.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
Christ knows how to minister to others perfectly. When the Savior stretches out His hands, those He touches are uplifted and become greater, stronger, and better people as a result. If we are His hands, should we not do the same?

Our motives and thoughts ultimately influence our actions.

Image
There is something inspiring and sublime about the little forget-me-not flower. I hope it will be a symbol of the little things that make your lives joyful and sweet.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
The pure love of Christ can remove the scales of resentment and wrath from our eyes, allowing us to see others the way our Heavenly Father sees us: as flawed and imperfect mortals who have potential and worth far beyond our capacity to imagine. Because God loves us so much, we too must love and forgive each other.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
We need to ask God for forgiveness and do all we can to correct whatever harm our actions may have caused. Repentance means a change of mind and heart—we stop doing things that are wrong, and we start doing things that are right. It brings us a fresh attitude toward God, oneself, and life in general.

We shouldn't wait to be happy until we reach some future point, only to discover that happiness was already available all the time!
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Image
. . . the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of greater importance. Let us open our eyes and see the heavy hearts, notice the loneliness and despair let us feel the silent prayers of others around us and let us be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to answer those prayers.
