It is impossible to stand upright when one plants his roots in the shifting sands of popular opinion and approval.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
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
Image
Prayer continues to provide power--spiritual power. Prayer continues to provide peace--spiritual peace.

Image
Perhaps there has never been a time when we had greater need to pray and to teach our family members to pray. Prayer is a defense against temptation. It is through earnest and heartfelt prayer that we can receive the needed blessings and the support required to make our way in this sometimes difficult and challenging journey we call mortality.

My earnest prayer is that you will have the courage required to refrain from judging others, the courage to be chaste and virtuous, and the courage to stand firm for truth and righteousness. As you do so, you will be ‘an example of the believers’ (1 Timothy 4:12), and your life will be filled with love and peace and joy.

Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
The hand of a bride becomes the hand of a mother. Ever so gently she cares for her precious child. Bathing, dressing, feeding, comforting-there is no hand like mother's. Nor does its tender care diminish through the years.
Thomas S. Monson

Choose your friends carefully, for you will tend to be like them and be found where they choose to go.

There are lives to brighten. There are hearts to touch. There are souls to save.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
There is really no way we can know the heart, the intentions, or the circumstances of someone who might say or do something we find reason to criticize. Thus the commandment: 'Judge not.'
Thomas S. Monson
Image
May we be people of honesty and integrity trying to do the right thing at all times and in all circumstances.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
There are hearts to gladden... kind words to say... gifts to be given... deeds to be done.

Ours is the responsibility to show our gratitude by the actions of our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
When we encounter challenges and problems in our lives, it is often difficult for us to focus on our blessings. However, if we reach deep enough and look hard enough, we will be able to feel and recognize just how much we have been given.
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.
