Help others in their race of life. Remember that when you help another up a mountain, you are a little nearer the top yourself.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Each of our temples is an expression of our testimony that life beyond the grave is as real and as certain as is our life here on earth.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Anger does not solve anything it builds nothing.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
We can bolster human spirits, clothe cold bodies, feed hungry people, comfort grieving hearts, and lift to new heights precious souls.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
A friend is more concerned about helping people than getting credit. A friend cares. A friend loves. A friend listens. And a friend reaches out.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
When fear replaces faith, remember prayer.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
The Lord’s purposes are often accomplished as we pay heed to the guidance of the Spirit. I believe that the more we act upon the inspiration and impressions which come to us, the more the Lord will entrust to us His errands.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Miracles are everywhere to be found when the priesthood is understood, its power is honored and used properly, and faith is exerted.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
My brothers and sisters, do we remember to give thanks for the blessings we receive? Sincerely giving thanks not only helps us recognize our blessings, but it also unlocks the doors of heaven and helps us feel God's love.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
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
Image
Because sexual intimacy is so sacred, the Lord requires self-control and purity before marriage, as well as full fidelity after marriage... Tears inevitably follow transgression. Men, take care not to make women weep, for God counts their tears.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Do not yield to Satan's enticements rather, stand firm for truth. The unsatisfied yearnings of the soul will not be met by a never-ending quest for joy amidst the thrills of sensation and vice. Vice never leads to virtue. Hate never promotes love. Cowardice never gives courage. Doubt never inspires faith.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Decisions determine destiny.

Find joy in the journey.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
We continue to build temples. We desire that as many members as possible have an opportunity to attend the temple without having to travel inordinate distances.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
We do not find truth groveling through error.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
It is almost inevitable that our faith will be challenged. We may at times find ourselves surrounded by others and yet standing in the minority or even standing alone concerning what is acceptable and what is not. Do we have the moral courage to stand firm for our beliefs, even if by so doing we must stand alone?
Thomas S. Monson
Image
One man said, I looked at my brother through the microscope of criticism, and I said, How coarse my brother is. Then I looked at my brother through the telescope of scorn, and I said, How small my brother is. Then I looked into the mirror of truth and I said, How like me my brother is.

Everyone can be discontented if he ignores his blessings and looks only at his burdens.

Ideals are like the stars - you can't touch them with your hands, but by following them you reach your destination.
