There is much that is difficult and challenging in the world today, my brothers and sisters, but there is also much that is good and uplifting.

Thomas S. Monson
Let me begin now, this very night, to emulate Christ. Cast off forever will be the old self and with it defeat, despair, doubt, and disbelief. To a newness of life I come--a life of faith, hope courage, and joy. No task looms too large no responsibility too heavy no duty is a burden. All things become possible.
Thomas S. Monson
