Let people repent. Let people grow. Believe that people can change and improve.
Jeffrey R. Holland
No one of us is less treasured or cherished of God than another. I testify that he loves each of us--insecuritie s, anxieties, self-image, and all.
Jeffrey R. Holland
If you are lonely, please know you can find comfort. If you are discouraged, please know you can find hope. If you are poor in spirit, please know you can be strengthened. If you feel you are broken, please know you can be mended.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Missionary work is not easy because salvation is not a cheap experience.
Jeffrey R. Holland
No one has failed who keeps trying and keeps praying.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Stay in the race. Keep running. Keep walking. Keep praying. The Lord will renew your strength.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Faith is for the future. Faith builds on the past but never longs to stay there. Faith trusts that God has great things in store for each of us and that Christ truly is the “high priest of good things to come” (Hebrews 9:11).
Jeffrey R. Holland
Believe that your faith has everything to do with your romance, because it does.
Jeffrey R. Holland
If something is buried in the past, leave it buried. . . . Such dwelling on past lives, including past mistakes, is just not right! It is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. . . . In cases of marriage and family, . . . we can end up destroying so many others.
Jeffrey R. Holland
He has, He reminds us, graven thee upon the palms of my hands (1 Nephi 21:16). Considering the incomprehensible cost of the Crucifixion, Christ is not going to turn His back on us now.
Jeffrey R. Holland
May the joy of our fidelity to the highest and best within us be ours as we keep our love and our marriages, our society and our souls, as pure as they were meant to be.
Jeffrey R. Holland
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
We must not pull away from our children. We must keep trying, keep reaching, keep praying, keep listening. We must keep them within the clasp of our arms.
Jeffrey R. Holland
I am convinced that missionary work is not easy because salvation is not a cheap experience. Salvation never was easy. We are the Church of Jesus Christ, this is the truth, and He is our Great Eternal Head. How could we believe it would be easy for us when it was never, ever easy for Him?
Jeffrey R. Holland
A life without problems or limitations or challenges--life without opposition in all things, as Lehi phrased it (2 Nephi 2:11)--would paradoxically but in very fact be less rewarding and less ennobling than one which confronts--even frequently confronts--difficulty and disappointment and sorrow.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don't come until heaven but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Never check your religion at the door. Not ever.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Fatherhood is not an easy assignment, but it ranks among the most imperative ever given, in time or eternity.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Along with filters on computers and a lock on affections, remember that the only real control in life is self-control.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Live the gospel as conspicuously as you can. Keep the covenants your children know you have made. Give priesthood blessings. And bear your testimony!
