Without spiritual landmarks, mankind wanders . . . Without the word of God, we walk in circles.

We need to accept that the commandments of God aren't just a long list of good ideas. They aren't 'life hacks' from an Internet blog, or motivational quotes from a Pinterest board. They are divine counsel, based on eternal truths.

Sometimes a single phrase of testimony can set events in motion that affect someone's life for eternity.

Patience is not simply enduring; it is enduring well!

You may feel burdened by worry, fear, or doubt. To you and to all of us, I repeat a wonderful and certain truth: #God's light is real. It has the power to soften the sting of the deepest wound. It can illuminate the path before us and lead us through the darkest night into the promise of a new dawn.

Don't let fear of failure discourage you. Don't let the voice of critics paralyze you - whether that voice comes from the outside or the inside.

Never give in, never surrender, Never allow despair to overcome your spirit.
