The gospel of Jesus Christ is that penetrating light which shines through the darkness of our lives.
Thomas S. MonsonRather than dwelling on the past, we should make the most of today, of the here and now, doing all we can to provide pleasant memories for the futureโฆIf you are still in the process of raising children be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled, will disappear all too soon, and that you will, to your surprise, miss them, profoundly.
Thomas S. MonsonIt is imperative that we recognize that whatever has happened to us has happened to others. They have coped and so must we. We are not alone. Heavenly Father's help is near.
Thomas S. MonsonFamily prayer is the greatest deterrent to sin, and hence the most beneficent provider of joy and happiness. The old saying is yet true: 'The family that prays together stays together.'
Thomas S. MonsonThe passage of time has not altered the capacity of the Redeemer to change menโs lives. As he said to the dead Lazarus, so he says to you and me: โcome forth.โ Come forth from the despair of doubt. Come forth from the sorrow of sin. Come forth from the death of disbelief. Come forth to a newness of life. Come forth.
Thomas S. Monson
