We may be insignificant and contemptible in our own eyes, but we are not in His eyes. President Eyring quoted the Lord with a phrase that is familiar and highly sacred to me when he spoke of the grandmother who was praying for her grandson. Wow. I did NOT expect that. One of my most sacred spiritual experiences was very, very similar. Still thinking on that.
Elder Dallin H. Oaks
What do we put ahead of God? The plan of salvation explains our destiny - the purpose of creation, who we are, why we are here, where we are going, and the Savior's role in that.
Bonnie Oscarson, YW General President
Living a principle helps us become converted to that principle, not the other way around.
Elder Richard J. Maynes
Feast upon the word of Christ and endure to the end. Testimony is what helps us do what is right and endure in righteousness. Dedication, perseverance, and self discipline are the price.
Elder Richard D. Scott
We can receive personal strength through the atonement of Jesus Christ.
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sang an exquisite version of "O, Divine Redeemer". Goosebump time.
President Thomas S. Monson
From his perspective, this has been one of the most spiritual sessions he has ever attended. Tomorrow would have been his 65th wedding anniversary. (His wife died in May after suffering injuries in a fall in April.) His testimony has provided him the utmost comfort as he has adjusted to life without her. Making the gospel of Jesus Christ of our lives will pull us through what comes our way.
