It Helped Heal My Heart

Liahona, Jan 2022, pg 20

In the end, I realized my efforts were worth it. With my ministering sister’s help, I was able to do something. Whether or not that something meant anything to anyone else, it made a difference to me. Though it didn’t directly benefit my family or heal my body, it helped heal my heart.

There is a Veritable Explosion of Spiritual, Moral Power

 

The Greatest Possession

By Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

Oct 2021 General Conference

When difficult things are asked of us, even things contrary to the longings of our heart, remember that the loyalty we pledge to the cause of Christ is to be the supreme devotion of our lives. ...

Clearly the possibility of change and living at a more elevated level has always been one of the gifts of God to those who seek it....

This love of God is the first great commandment in the universe. But the first great truth in the universe is that God loves us exactly that way—wholeheartedly, without reservation or compromise, with all of His heart, might, mind, and strength. And when those majestic forces from His heart and ours meet without restraint, there is a veritable explosion of spiritual, moral power....

If we love God enough to try to be fully faithful to Him, He will give us the ability, the capacity, the will, and the way to love our neighbor and ourselves.

Knowledge of our Savior is Vital

 

Pure Truth, Pure Doctrine, and Pure Revelation

By President Russell M. Nelson

October 2021 General Conference

There has never been a time in the history of the world when knowledge of our Savior is more personally vital and relevant to every human soul. Imagine how quickly the devastating conflicts throughout the world—and those in our individual lives—would be resolved if we all chose to follow Jesus Christ and heed His teachings...

The pure doctrine of Christ is powerful. It changes the life of everyone who understands it and seeks to implement it in his or her life. The doctrine of Christ helps us find and stay on the covenant path. Staying on that narrow but well-defined path will ultimately qualify us to receive all that God has.³ Nothing could be worth more than all our Father has!

Gathering Of Israel is Going to Happen Whether We Help or Not

 "The gathering is going to happen whether we help it or not, " said Brother Allgaier. "It's the Lord's work, and He's going to make sure that it's done. For those that are more active in it, there will be more blessings poured upon their heads."

Meredith Gerard and Sarah Lott Helzer, "How We Gather Israel Today," Liahona, Dec 2021. 

Meditation

President David O. McKay called meditation "one of the . . . most sacred doors through which we pass into the presence of the Lord." (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: David O. McKay [2003], 32).

 DRAWING THE SAVIOR’S POWER INTO OUR LIVES

 “When the Savior knows you truly want to reach up to Him—when He can feel that the greatest desire of your heart is to draw His power into your life—you will be led by the Holy Ghost to know exactly what you should do.”

  President Russell M. Nelson, President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “Drawing the Power of Jesus Christ into Our Lives,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 42.

Do Family History if You Can't Get to the Temple

 

What the Temple Means to Me

By Lisa Prebble

Years ago a dear sister in our ward shared with me that because an endowment session took roughly two hours and because she lived so far from the temple, she had decided to commit a minimum of two hours a week to family history work. She wanted to show the Lord that she was committed to temple work, even though it was challenging for her to get to the temple. Her goal really touched me, so I set the same goal for myself.
