I am convinced that missionary work is not easy because salvation is not a cheap experience. Salvation never was easy. We are the Church of Jesus Christ, this is the truth, and He is our Great Eternal Head. How could we believe it would be easy for us when it was never, ever easy for Him?

Trust God and Believe in good things to come!

The ability of the gospel to unite us on common strengths and common truths is one of the great miracles . . . of the gospel.

I especially wish to praise and encourage young mothers. The work of a mother is hard, too often unheralded work... Do the best you can through these years, but whatever else you do, cherish that role that is so uniquely yours and for which heaven itself sends angels to watch over you and your little ones.

Think the best of each other, especially of those you say you love. Assume the good and doubt the bad.

Defend your beliefs with courtesy and with compassion, but defend them.

Patiently enduring some things is part of our mortal education.
