Thomas S. Monson

Testimony bearing is the key to missionary work
Thomas S. Monson
There is no finer way to demonstrate love of God than by serving Him in the positions to which we may be called. Occasionally, the reward for that service will be prompt, and we'll see the light in the eyes of the person whom we have helped. Other times, however, the Lord will let us wait a little while and let our reward come another way.
Thomas S. Monson

Thomas S. Monson
None within the sound of my voice should be in any doubt concerning what is moral and what is not, nor should any be in doubt about what is expected of us ... We have been and continue to be taught God's laws. Despite what you may see or hear elsewhere, these laws are unchanging.
Thomas S. Monson
Blame keeps wounds open only forgiveness heals
Thomas S. Monson

Thomas S. Monson
A woman needs to be told she is beautiful. She needs to be told she is valued. She needs to be told she is worthwhile.
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
We can’t direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails. For maximum happiness, peace, and contentment, may we choose a positive attitude.
Thomas S. Monson
Each heartfelt prayer, each Church meeting attended, each worthy friend, each righteous decision, each act of service perfomed all precede that goal of eternal life.
Thomas S. Monson
We continue to build temples. We desire that as many members as possible have an opportunity to attend the temple without having to travel inordinate distances.
Thomas S. Monson
Dedicated missionary service returns a dividend of eternal joy which extends throughout mortality and into eternity.
Thomas S. Monson
Work without vision is drudgery. Vision without work is dreaming. Work coupled with vision is destiny.
Thomas S. Monson
How long has it been since you looked into the eyes of your mother and, holding nothing back, spoke those welcome words, 'Mother, I truly love you'? How about Father, who daily toils to provide for you? Fathers appreciate hearing those same precious words from the lips of a child, 'I love you.'
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
Christmas is a glorious time of the year, simple in origin, deep in meaning, beautiful in tradition and custom, rich in memories, and charitable in spirit.
Thomas S. Monson
