More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
Remember who you are and what God expects you to become.
Thomas S. Monson
Work without vision is drudgery. Vision without work is dreaming. Work coupled with vision is destiny.
Thomas S. Monson
To express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.
Thomas S. Monson
Avoid pornography at all costs!
Thomas S. Monson
When we keep the spirit of Christmas, we keep the spirit of Christ, for the Christmas spirit is the Christ spirit.
Thomas S. Monson
Come from your wandering way, weary travelers. Come to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Come to that heavenly haven called home. Here you will discover the truth. Here you will learn the reality of the Godhead, the comfort of the plan of salvation, the sanctity of the marriage covenant, the power of personal prayer. Come home.
Thomas S. Monson
The gospel of Jesus Christ is that penetrating light which shines through the darkness of our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
The work is demanding, the impact everlasting. This is no time for 'summer soldiers' in the army of the Lord.
Thomas S. Monson
All of us remember the home of our childhood. Interestingly, our thoughts do not dwell on whether the house was large or small, the neighborhood fashionable or downtrodden. Rather, we delight in the experiences we shared as a family. The home is the laboratory of our lives, and what we learn there largely determines what we do when we leave there.
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
You can achieve what you believe you can. Trust and believe and have faith.
Thomas S. Monson
Times change years speed by but Christmas continues sacred.
Thomas S. Monson
I wasn't with Joseph, but I believe him. My faith did not come to me through science, and I will not permit so-called science to destroy it.
Thomas S. Monson
I urge you to live within your means. One cannot spend more than one earns and remain solvent. I promise you that you will then be happier than you would be if you were constantly worrying about how to make the next payment on nonessential debt.
Thomas S. Monson
Amidst the confusion of the times, the conflicts of conscience, and the turmoil of daily living, an abiding faith becomes an anchor to our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have and offer thanks for all the troubles we don't have.
Thomas S. Monson
Everyone can be discontented if he ignores his blessings and looks only at his burdens.
Thomas S. Monson
If we do not have a deep foundation of faith and a solid testimony of truth, we may have difficulty withstanding the harsh storms and icy winds of adversity which inevitably come to each of us.
Thomas S. Monson
Courage is required to make an initial thrust towards ones coveted goal, But even greater courage is called for when one stumbles and must make a second effort to achieve.
Thomas S. Monson
We are going to make mistakes, but none of us can become an expert in family history work without first being a novice.
Thomas S. Monson
