“A mighty change of heart is not something we experience
only once. Rather, it is a process we repeat over and over throughout our
mortal lives, and thus our light grows “brighter and brighter until the perfect
day” (D& C 50:24). We repeat the steps as taught in the doctrine of Christ
by exercising our faith unto repentance. When we participate in the renewing
ordinance of the sacrament, the power and influence of the Holy Ghost are
renewed in our lives. Through the power of the Spirit, we are once again
spiritually reborn and become the sons and daughters of Christ (see Mosiah
5:7). That is what is meant by our taking upon us the name of Christ (see
Mosiah 5:8), which we must be willing to do each time we partake of the sacrament.”
Elder Wilford W. Anderson, “Receiving and Retaining a Mighty
Change,” Ensign, April 2012, 36.
