More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
We need learn what we need to learn, know what we need to know, and do what we need to do.
Thomas S. Monson
When God speaks and we obey, we will always be right.
Thomas S. Monson
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
[The Lord] has indicated that the greatest work we parents can do is performed in our homes, and our homes can be heaven, particularly when our marriages are sealed in the house of God.
Thomas S. Monson
Children learn through gentle direction and persuasive teaching.
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
So much in life depends on our attitude. The way we choose to see things and respond to others makes all the difference.
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
When we keep the spirit of Christmas, we keep the spirit of Christ, for the Christmas spirit is the Christ spirit.
Thomas S. Monson
One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. Let us not put off what is important.
Thomas S. Monson
It is imperative that we recognize that whatever has happened to us has happened to others. They have coped and so must we. We are not alone. Heavenly Father's help is near.
Thomas S. Monson
The Lord shapes the back to bear the burden placed upon it.
Thomas S. Monson
Our Heavenly Father is aware of our needs and will help us as we call upon Him for assistance. I believe that no concern of ours is too small or insignificant. The Lord is in the details of our lives.
Thomas S. Monson
Stick to a task 'til it sticks to you. . .for beginners are many, but finishers few.
Thomas S. Monson
Needed are...[souls] filled with compassion, that we might communicate not only eye to eye, or voice to ear, but in the majestic style of the Savior, even heart to heart.
Thomas S. Monson
Times change years speed by but Christmas continues sacred.
Thomas S. Monson
When the time for decision arrives, the time for preparation is past.
Thomas S. Monson
Choose your friends carefully, for you will tend to be like them and be found where they choose to go.
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
May we be faithful followers of Christ, examples of righteousness, thus becoming lights in the world.
Thomas S. Monson
