Thomas S. Monson
Miracles are everywhere to be found when priesthood callings are magnified. When faith replaces doubt, when selfless service eliminates selfish striving, the power of God brings to pass His purposes. The priesthood is not really so much a gift as it is a commission to serve, a privilege to lift, and an opportunity to bless the lives of others.
Thomas S. Monson
There are hearts to gladden... kind words to say... gifts to be given... deeds to be done.
Thomas S. Monson
Any excuse, no matter how valid, only weakens the character.
Thomas S. Monson
No one has learned the meaning of living until he has surrendered his ego to the service of his fellow man. Service to others is akin to duty, the fulfillment of which brings true joy.
Thomas S. Monson
The way to be with God in every season is to strive to be near Him every week and each day.
Thomas S. Monson
Choose your friends carefully, for you will tend to be like them and be found where they choose to go.
Thomas S. Monson
The world around you is not equipped to provide the help you need to make it through this often treacherous journey.
Thomas S. Monson
