Do we give thanks to God 'for his unspeakable gift' and His rich blessings so abundantly bestowed upon us?
Thomas S. MonsonIt is necessary to prepare and to plan so that we donโt fritter away our lives. Without a goal, there can be no real success. One of the best definitions of success I have ever heard goes something like this: success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal. Someone has said the trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never cross the goal line.
Thomas S. MonsonWonderful, glorious things are in store for you if you will only believe, obey, and endure.
Thomas S. MonsonWhen called to the Council of the Twelve, October 4, 1963, he said in the Salt Lake Tabernacle: I think of a little sister, a French-Canadian sister, whose life was changed by the missionaries as her spirit was touched. As she said good-by to me and my wife in Quebec, she said, "President Monson, I may never see the Prophet. I may never hear the Prophet. But President, far better, now that I am a member of this Church, I can obey the Prophet."
