The road back to God is not nearly so steep nor is it so difficult as some would have us believe.
Thomas S. MonsonYou may sometimes be tempted to say, โWill my influence make any difference? I am just one. Will my service affect the work that dramatically?โ I testify to you that it will. You will never be able to measure your influence for good.
Thomas S. MonsonBecause of Jesus Christ the world has changed, the divine Atonement has been made, the price of sin has been paid, and the fearful spectacle of death yields to the light of truth and the assurance of resurrection. Though the years roll by, His birth, His ministry, His legacy continue to guide the destiny of all who follow Him as He so invitingly urged.
Thomas S. MonsonWhen we qualify for the help of the Lord, we can build boys, we can mend men, we can accomplish miracles in His holy service. Our opportunities are without limit.
Thomas S. MonsonThose who grieve frequently find themselves alone. Missed is the laughter of children, the commotion of teenagers, and the tender, loving concern of a departed companion. The clock ticks more loudly, time passes more slowly, and four walls can indeed a prison make. I extol those who, with loving care and compassionate concern, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and house the homeless. He who notes the sparrow's fall will not be unmindful of such service.
Thomas S. Monson
