Christlike love is the greatest need we have on this planet
Jeffrey R. Holland
Your love for Jesus Christ and your discipleship in His cause must be the consuming preoccupation and passion of your mortality.
Jeffrey R. Holland
In our time the only restraint left is self-retraint.

The past is to be learned from but not lived in. We look back to claim the embers from glowing experiences but not the ashes. And when we have learned what we need to learn and have brought with us the best that we have experienced, then we look ahead we remember that faith is always pointed toward the future.
Jeffrey R. Holland
It is not possible for you to sink lower than the infinite light of Christ's Atonement shines.
Jeffrey R. Holland
God wants us to be stronger than we are--more fixed in our purpose, more certain of our commitments, eventually needing less coddling from Him, showing more willingness to shoulder some of the burden of His heavy load. In short, He wants us to be more like He is and, if you haven't noticed, some of us are not like that yet.

When fleeing the scene of temptation, do not leave a forwarding address.
Jeffrey R. Holland
May I say to mothers collectively, in the name of the Lord, you are magnificent. You are doing terrifically well. The very fact that you have been given such a responsibility is everlasting evidence of the trust your Father in Heaven has in you.
Jeffrey R. Holland
God expects you not simply to face the future He expects you to embrace and shape the future--to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities.
Jeffrey R. Holland
In His own ministry, Jesus did not come to improve God's view of man nearly so much as He came to improve man's view of God and to plead with them to love their Heavenly Father as He has always and will always love them.
Jeffrey R. Holland
We are making our appearance on the stage of mortality in the greatest dispensation of the gospel ever given to mankind, and we need to make the most of it.
Jeffrey R. Holland
No eternal learning can take place without that quickening of the Spirit from heaven.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Believe that your faith has everything to do with your romance, because it does.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Sometimes it seems especially difficult to submit to great tribulation when we look around and see others seemingly much less obedient who triumph even as we weep. But time is measured only unto man, says Alma (see Alma 40:8), and God has a very good memory.
Jeffrey R. Holland
To give ourselves totally to another person, as we do in marriage, is the most trusting step we take in any human relationship.
Jeffrey R. Holland
If for a while the harder you try, the harder it gets, take heart. So it has been with the best people who ever lived. (The Inconvenient Messiah, BYU Speeches, Feb 15, 1982)
Jeffrey R. Holland
Perhaps no more beautiful passages have ever been written about the Savior's atonement and crucifixion than those written by Isaiah.
Jeffrey R. Holland
If we teach by the Spirit and you listen by the Spirit, some one of us will touch on your circumstance, sending a personal prophetic epistle just to you.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Whoever you are and wherever you find yourself as you seek your way in life, I offer you the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Wherever else you think you may be going, I ask you to come unto Him as the imperative first step in getting there, in finding your individual happiness and strength and success.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Stay in the race. Keep running. Keep walking. Keep praying. The Lord will renew your strength.
