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.
Dieter F. UchtdorfHealing comes when we choose to walk away from darkness and move towards a brighter light.
Dieter F. UchtdorfWe need to ask God for forgiveness and do all we can to correct whatever harm our actions may have caused. Repentance means a change of mind and heartโwe stop doing things that are wrong, and we start doing things that are right. It brings us a fresh attitude toward God, oneself, and life in general.
Dieter F. UchtdorfBe strong and of good courage. You are truly royal spirit daughters of Almighty God. You are princesses, destined to become queens. Your own wondrous story has already begun. Your "once upon a time" is now.
