Thomas S. Monson

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

Thomas S. Monson
We are surrounded by those in need of our attention, our encouragement, our support, our comfort, our kindness... We are the Lord’s hands here upon the earth, with the mandate to serve and to lift His children. He is dependent upon each of us
Thomas S. Monson
Keep the commandments of God. If you have sinned, the sooner you begin to make your way back, the sooner you will find the sweet peace and joy that come with the miracle of forgiveness. Happiness comes from living the way the Lord wants you to live and from service to God and others.
Thomas S. Monson
When we deal in generalities, we shall never succeed. When we deal in specifics, we shall rarely have a failure. When performance is measured, performance improves. When performance is measured and reported, the rate of performance accelerates.
Thomas S. Monson
Your future depends on your Faith.
Thomas S. Monson
To catch the real meaning of the Spirit of Christmas, we need only drop the last syllable, and it becomes the Spirit of Christ.
Thomas S. Monson
Have times really changed? Don't we today, as always, love our children and want them to live righteously? Don't we today, as always, need God's divine protecting care? Don't we today, as always, continue to be at his mercy and in his debt for the very life he has given us?
Thomas S. Monson
Home should be a haven of love. Honor, courtesy, and respect symbolize love and characterize the righteous family.
Thomas S. Monson
There is absolutely nothing in this world that will provide more comfort and happiness than a testimony of the truth.
Thomas S. Monson
We are reminded that anger doesn't solve anything. It builds nothing, but it can destroy everything.
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
True love is a reflection of the Savior's love. In December of each year we call it the Christmas Spirit.
Thomas S. Monson
Have we been guilty of declaring, 'I've been thinking about making some course corrections in my life. I plan to take the first step-tomorrow'? With such thinking, tomorrow is forever. Such tomorrows rarely come unless we do something about them today.
Thomas S. Monson
Everyone can be discontented if he ignores his blessings and looks only at his burdens.
Thomas S. Monson
…Faith forged in the furnace of trials and tears is marked by trust and testimony. Only God can count the sacrifice only God can measure the sorrow only God can know the hearts of those who serve Him.
Thomas S. Monson
Those who understand the eternal blessings which come from the temple know that no sacrifice is too great, no price too heavy, no struggle too difficult in order to receive those blessings.
Thomas S. Monson
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.
Thomas S. Monson
