The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of love and of generosity and of goodness. It illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world's busy life and become more interested in people than in things.

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.

Without a goal there can be no real success.
Thomas S. Monson

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.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
We learn and grow and become stronger as we face and survive the trials through which we must pass.

Missionary service is a priesthood duty.
Thomas S. Monson

There are hearts to gladden... kind words to say... gifts to be given... deeds to be done.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Man has made remarkable strides in conquering outer space, but how futile have been his efforts in conquering inner space- the space in our hearts and minds of men.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
Your mind is a cupboard and you stock the shelves.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
The knowledge which we seek, the answers for which we yearn, and the strength which we desire today to meet the challenges of a complex and changing world can be ours when we willingly obey the Lord’s commandments.
Thomas S. Monson
Image
No one has learned the meaning of living until he has surrendered his ego to the service of his fellow man. Service to others is akin to duty, the fulfillment of which brings true joy.

When you're at a funeral and you're crying, you're crying for yourself
