More quotes by Jeffrey R. Holland
Be strong. Live the gospel faithfully even if others around you don’t live it at all.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Never check your religion at the door. Not ever.
Jeffrey R. Holland
We must never let fear... divert us from our faith and faithful living. Every person in every era has had to walk by faith into what has always been some uncertainty. This is the plan. Just be faithful. God is in charge. He knows your name and He knows your need.
Jeffrey R. Holland
The work of a mother is hard, too often unheralded work. Please know that it is worth it then, now, and forever.
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
It is obvious that the bumper sticker question What would Jesus do? will not always bring a popular response.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Coveting, pouting, or tearing others down does not elevate your standing, nor does demeaning someone else improve your self-image.
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
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
After an encounter with the living Son of the living God, nothing is ever again to be as it was before.
Jeffrey R. Holland
The Church is not a monastery for the isolation of perfect people. It is more like a hospital provided for those who wish to get well.
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
Let people repent. Let people grow. Believe that people can change and improve.
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
In a world of unrest and fear, political turmoil and moral drift, I testify that Jesus is the Christ—that He is the living Bread and living Water—still, yet, and always the great Shield of safety in our lives.
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
Just because God is God, just because Christ is Christ, they cannot do other than care for us and bless us and help us if we will but come unto them, approaching their throne of grace in meekness and lowliness of heart. They can't help but bless us. They have to. It is their nature.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Dads, is it too bold to hope that our children might have some small portion of the feeling for us that the Divine Son felt for His Father?
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
If we want it, we can enjoy the joy of our fidelity to the highest and best that is within us. --sat. afternoon 4/3/10 lds general conference
