Let us be mindful of the foundational precepts our Heavenly Father has given to His children that will establish the basis of a rich and fruitful mortal life with promises of eternal happinessโฆ. Brothers and sisters, diligently doing the things that matter most will lead us to the Savior of the worldโฆ. Let us make the changes necessary to refocus our lives on the sublime beauty of the simple, humble path of Christian discipleshipโthe path that leads always toward a life of meaning, gladness, and peace.
Dieter F. UchtdorfOur loving Heavenly Father wants us to become more like him. God understands that we get there not in an instant, but by taking one step at a time.
Dieter F. UchtdorfWork is an antidote for anxiety, and ointment for sorrow, and a doorway to possibility. Whatever our circumstances in life, my dear brethren, let us do the best we can and cultivate a reputation for excellence in all that we do. Let us set our minds and bodies to the glorious opportunity for work that each new day presents.
Dieter F. UchtdorfThe desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds, or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Creation brings satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take organized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty.
