It is not enough to want to make the effort and to say we'll make the effort. We must actually make the effort. It's in the doing, not just the thinking, that we accomplish our goals. If we constantly put our goals off, we will never see them fulfilled. Someone put it this way: Live only for tomorrow, and you will have a lot of empty yesterdays today.
Thomas S. MonsonYouth of the Church, the world is in need of your help. There are feet to steady, hands to grasp, minds to encourage, hearts to inspire, and souls to save. The harvest truly is great. Let there be no mistake about it; the missionary opportunity of a lifetime is yours.
Thomas S. MonsonWe are surrounded by those in need of our attention, our encouragement, our support, our comfort, our kindness... We are the Lordโs hands here upon the earth, with the mandate to serve and to lift His children. He is dependent upon each of us
