If ever you are tempted to become discouraged or to lose faith, remember those faithful Saints who remained true in Kirtland. Hold on a little longer. You can do this! You are part of a special generation. You were prepared and preserved to live at this important time in the existence of our beautiful planet earth. You have a celestial pedigree and therefore have all the necessary talents to make your life an eternal success story.
Dieter F. UchtdorfWe sometimes confuse sin with sinner, and we condemn too quickly and with too little compassion. We know from modern revelation that โthe worth of souls is great in the sight of God.โ We cannot gauge the worth of another soul any more than we can measure the span of the universe.
Dieter F. UchtdorfCommandments and covenants of God are like navigational instructions from celestial heights and will lead us safely to our eternal destination. It is one of beauty and glory beyond understanding. It is worth the effort. It is worth making decisive corrections now and then staying on course.
Dieter F. UchtdorfWe can choose to be like the Mormon pioneers, who maintained a spirit of gratitude during their slow and painful trek toward the Great Salt Lake, even singing and dancing and glorying in the goodness of God.
Dieter F. UchtdorfI pray that we will not wait until we are ready to die before we truly learn to live.
