More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
When we encounter challenges and problems in our lives, it is often difficult for us to focus on our blessings. However, if we reach deep enough and look hard enough, we will be able to feel and recognize just how much we have been given.
Thomas S. Monson
The future is in your hands, the outcome is up to you.
Thomas S. Monson
When you’re on the Lord’s errand, you’re entitled to the Lord’s blessings.

Thomas S. Monson
As a teenage daughter hears her sweet mother plead unto the Lord that her daughter will be inspired in the selection of her companions, that she will prepare herself for a temple marriage, don't you believe that such a daughter will seek to honor this humble, pleading petition of her mother, whom she so dearly loves?
Thomas S. Monson
Each of our temples is an expression of our testimony that life beyond the grave is as real and as certain as is our life here on earth.
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
So frequently we mistakenly believe that our children need more things, when in reality their silent pleadings are simply for more of our time.
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
Help others in their race of life. Remember that when you help another up a mountain, you are a little nearer the top yourself.
Thomas S. Monson
What is most important almost always involves the people around us.
Thomas S. Monson
Everyone can be discontented if he ignores his blessings and looks only at his burdens.
Thomas S. Monson
We tend to become like those whom we admire.
Thomas S. Monson
When the time for decision arrives, the time for preparation is past.
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
Self-discipline is a rigorous process at best too many of us want it to be effortless and painless.
Thomas S. Monson
We were not placed on this earth to walk alone.
Thomas S. Monson
May we give as the Savior gave. To give of oneself is a holy gift. We give as a remembrance of all the Savior has given.
Thomas S. Monson
Life by the yard is hard by the inch it's a cinch. Each of us can be true for just one day--and then one more and then one more after that--until we've lived a lifetime guided by the Spirit, a lifetime close to the Lord, a lifetime of good deeds and righteousness.
Thomas S. Monson
Recent surveys of Church members have shown a serious erosion in the number of families who have a year's supply of life's necessities. Most members plan to do it. Too few have begun... It is our sacred duty to care for our families, including our extended families.
Thomas S. Monson
