More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
This is my philosophy on all life, not just when it comes to love. All the best things are terrifying, but that's why they're the best things. Nothing worth having comes easy. You have to be afraid to want it, afraid to lose it, afraid to try. If you feel that, then you know you're on to a winner.
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
Wishing will not make it so. The Lord expects our thinking. He expects our action. He expects our labors. He expects our testimonies. He expects our devotion.
Thomas S. Monson
Finding the real joy of # Christmas comes not in the hurrying and the scurrying to get more done, nor is it found in the purchasing of # gifts . We find real joy when we make the Savior the focus of the season.
Thomas S. Monson
Permissiveness, immorality, pornography, drugs, the power of peer pressure-all these and more-cause many to be tossed about on a sea of sin and crushed on the jagged reefs of lost opportunities, forfeited blessings, and shattered dreams.
Thomas S. Monson
Gaze Upward, Look Inward, Reach Outward, Press Forward.
Thomas S. Monson
As we seek Christ, as we find Him, as we follow Him, we shall have the Christmas spirit, not for one fleeting day each year, but as a companion always.
Thomas S. Monson
Without a goal there can be no real success.
Thomas S. Monson
Times change years speed by but Christmas continues sacred.
Thomas S. Monson
It is not enough to want to make the effort... it's in the doing, not just the thinking that we accomplish our goals.
Thomas S. Monson
Decisions are constantly before us. To make them wisely, courage is needed-the courage to say no, the courage to say yes. Decisions do determine destiny. I plead with you to make a determination right here, right now, not to deviate from the path which will lead to our goal: eternal life with our Father in Heaven.
Thomas S. Monson
Our task is to become our best selves. One of God's greatest gifts to us is the joy of trying again, for no failure ever need be final.
Thomas S. Monson
Your patriarchal blessing is your passport to peace in this life. It is a Liahona of light to guide you unerringly to your heavenly home.
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
Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives: ‘I know that my Redeemer 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
The face of sin today often wears the mask of tolerance. Do not be deceived behind that facade is heartache, unhappiness and pain. .. YOU be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow.
Thomas S. Monson
Reading is one of the true pleasures of life. In our age of mass culture, when so much that we encounter is abridged,adapted, adulterated, shredded, and boiled down, it is mind-easing and mind-inspiring to sit down privately with a congenial book.
Thomas S. Monson
So frequently we mistakenly believe that our children need more things, when in reality their silent pleadings are simply for more of our time.
Thomas S. Monson
We cannot truly love God if we do not love our fellow travelers on this mortal journey.
Thomas S. Monson
