I have learned over the years that the strength in a quorum doesn't come from the number of priesthood holders in it. Nor does it come automatically from the age and maturity of the members. Rather, the strength of a quorum comes in large measure from how completely its members are united in righteousness. That unity in a strong quorum of the priesthood is not like anything I have experienced in an athletic team or club or any other organization in the world.

When the words of prophets seem repetitive, that should rivet our attention.

You can give a great and wonderful Christmas if you remember the gifts God has given you and, as best you can, offer them to others as He would. That is the spirit of Christmas and of true happiness every day.

The Lord will give you, if you ask, the feelings of the compassion He feels for those in need.

Our choosing the right consistently whenever the choice is placed before us creates the solid ground under our faith

Whenever we meet anyone, our first, almost unconscious reaction may be to look for imperfections.

Many of you have loved ones who are wandering off the path to eternal life. You wonder what more you can do to bring them back. You can depend on the Lord to draw closer to them as you serve Him in faith.
