Be Faithful, Not Faithless
BY STEPHEN W. OWEN
Young Men General President
...we must deliberately take time
each day to disconnect from the world
and connect with heaven....
Regardless of your circumstances,
you can make your home the center of
gospel learning and living. It simply
means taking personal responsibility for your conversion and spiritual
growth....
The adversary will try to persuade
you that spiritual nourishment isn’t
necessary or, more cunningly, that it
can wait. He is the master of distraction
and author of procrastination. He will
bring things to your attention that seem
urgent but in reality aren’t that important. He would have you become so
“troubled about many things” that you
neglect the “one thing [that] is needful.”...
Parents, please build
strong relationships with your children.
They need more of your time, not less...
Never underestimate the strength that
comes from gathering with others who
are also trying to be strong....
Whether you are a leader, a neighbor, a quorum member, or simply a
fellow Saint, if you have the opportunity to touch the life of a young
person, help him or her connect with
heaven. Your influence might be
exactly the “Church support” that
young person needs.
