More quotes by 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
We declare that one who uses the God-given body of another without divine sanction abuses the very soul of that individual, abuses the central purpose and processes of life.
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
When life is hard, remember - we are not the first to ask, 'Is there no other way?
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
Let people repent. Let people grow. Believe that people can change and improve.
Jeffrey R. Holland
I know we can each do something, however small that act may seem to be. We can pay an honest tithe and give our fast and free-will offerings, according to our circumstances. And we can watch for other ways to help.
Jeffrey R. Holland
The size of your faith or the degree of your knowledge is not the issue—it is the integrity you demonstrate toward the faith you do have and the truth you already know.
Jeffrey R. Holland
My own great-grandfather, who said simply enough, No wicked man could write such a book as this and no good man would write it unless it were true and he were commanded of God to do so.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Pray earnestly and fast with purpose and devotion. Some difficulties, like devils, do not come out save by fasting and by prayer. Ask in righteousness and you shall receive. Knock with conviction and it shall be opened unto you.
Jeffrey R. Holland
In a world of discouragement, sorrow, and overmuch sin, in times when fear and despair seem to prevail, when humanity is feverish with no worldly physicians in sigh, I too say, Trust Jesus. Let Him still the tempest and ride upon the storm. Believe that He can lift mankind from its bed of affliction, in time and in eternity.

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

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
So we have neighbors to bless, children to protect, the poor to lift up, and the truth to defend. We have wrongs to make right, truths to share, and good to do. In short, we have a life of devoted discipleship to give in demonstrating our love of the Lord. We can’t quit and we can’t go back.
Jeffrey R. Holland
Don't you quit! You keep walking. You keep trying. There is help & happiness ahead.

Even if you cannot always see that silver lining on your clouds, God can, for He is the very source of the light you seek. He does love you, and He knows your fears. He hears your prayers. He is your Heavenly Father, and surely He matches with His own the tears His children shed.

Never check your religion at the door. Not ever.
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.
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
Your love for Jesus Christ and your discipleship in His cause must be the consuming preoccupation and passion of your mortality.
