More quotes by Thomas S. Monson
Permissiveness, immorality, pornography, drugs, the power of peer pressure-all these and more-cause many to be tossed about on a sea of sin and crushed on the jagged reefs of lost opportunities, forfeited blessings, and shattered dreams.
Thomas S. Monson
The face of sin today often wears the mask of tolerance. Do not be deceived behind that facade is heartache, unhappiness and pain. .. YOU be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow.
Thomas S. Monson
Life by the yard is hard by the inch it's a cinch. Decisions Determine Destiny.
Thomas S. Monson
No temptation, no pressure, no enticing can overcome us unless we allow such. If we make the wrong choice, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
Thomas S. Monson
Work without vision is drudgery. Vision without work is dreaming. Work coupled with vision is destiny.
Thomas S. Monson
May we muster courage at the crossroads, courage for the conflicts, courage to say, no, courage to say, yes, for courage counts.
Thomas S. Monson
We are reminded that anger doesn't solve anything. It builds nothing, but it can destroy everything.
Thomas S. Monson
Times change years speed by but Christmas continues sacred.
Thomas S. Monson
Do we have a guide to help us choose the right and avoid dangerous detours? I have tried to pattern my life after the Master. Whenever I have a difficult decision to make, I have looked at that picture and asked myself, What would He do? Then I try to do it. We can never go wrong when we choose to follow the Savior.
Thomas S. Monson
When you’re on the Lord’s errand, you’re entitled to the Lord’s blessings.
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
All of us remember the home of our childhood. Interestingly, our thoughts do not dwell on whether the house was large or small, the neighborhood fashionable or downtrodden. Rather, we delight in the experiences we shared as a family. The home is the laboratory of our lives, and what we learn there largely determines what we do when we leave there.
Thomas S. Monson
God and mother, partners in creation, in love, in sacrifice, in service, are as one.
Thomas S. Monson
You can dress attractively without being immodest. Within the Lord’s guidelines, there is room for you to be lively, vibrant, and beautiful both in your dress and in your actions.
Thomas S. Monson
Let us make of our homes sanctuaries of righteousness, places of prayer, and abodes of love, that we might merit the blessings that can come only from our Heavenly Father.
Thomas S. Monson
I have found that, rather than dwelling on the negative, if we will take a step back and consider the blessings in our lives, including seemingly small, sometimes overlooked blessings, we can find greater happiness.
Thomas S. Monson
The hand of a bride becomes the hand of a mother. Ever so gently she cares for her precious child. Bathing, dressing, feeding, comforting-there is no hand like mother's. Nor does its tender care diminish through the years.
Thomas S. Monson
Let us open wide the windows of our hearts, that each family member may feel welcome and 'at home.
Thomas S. Monson
There are those who struggle every day with challenges. Let us extend to them our concern, as well as a helping hand. As we care for each other, we will be blessed.
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
