Rise up and become the person you were meant to be.

With Christ, darkness cannot succeed. Darkness will not gain victory over the light of Christ.

We don’t discover humility by thinking less of ourselves; we discover humility by thinking less about ourselves.

To those who have separated themselves from the Church, I say, my dear friends, there is yet a place for you here.

Yes, God loves you this very day and always. He is not waiting to love you until you have overcome your weaknesses and bad habits. He loves you today with a full understanding of your struggles. He is aware that you reach up to Him in heartfelt and hopeful prayer. He knows of the times you have held onto the fading light and believed-even in the midst of growing darkness. He knows of your sufferings. He knows of your remorse for the times you have fallen short or failed. And still He loves you.

Heavenly Father is constantly raining blessings upon us, but it is our fear, doubt, and sin that, like an umbrella, block these blessings from reaching us.

No one likes to fail. But we mortals do not become champions without effort and discipline or without making mistakes.
