jesus humble thinking
When I think of the Savior, I often picture Him with hands outstretched, reaching out to comfort, heal, bless, and love. And He always talked with, never down to, people. He loved the humble and the meek and walked among them, ministering to them and offering hope and salvation. That is what He did during His mortal life; it is what He would be doing if He were living among us today; and it is what we should be doing as His disciples and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
thinking personal-knowledge saint
Latter-day Saints are not asked to blindly accept everything they hear. We are encouraged to think and discover truth for ourselves. We are expected to ponder, to search, to evaluate, and thereby to come to a personal knowledge of the truth.
eye thinking hands
Even when we think we cannot rise up, there is still hope. And sometimes we just need someone to look us in the eyes, take our hand, and say, 'you can do it now!'
thinking about-yourself
Don't think less of yourself, just think less about yourself.
thinking who-we-are determine
What we love determines what we seek. What we seek determines what we think and do. What we think and do determines who we are — and who we will become.
love-you thinking infinite
Think of the purest, most all-consuming love you can imagine. Now multiply that love by an infinite amount-that is the measure of God’s love for you.
humility thinking thinking-less
We don’t discover humility by thinking less of ourselves; we discover humility by thinking less about ourselves.
integrity important may
It is an important part of our life’s experience to develop the strength, courage, and integrity to hold fast to truth and righteousness despite the buffeting we may experience.
jesus journey profound
We see baptism as the starting point in our journey of discipleship. Our daily walk with Jesus Christ leads to peace and purpose in this life and profound joy and eternal salvation in the world to come.
spiritual lying simple
In these simple words, Lord, is it I? lies the beginning of wisdom and the pathway to personal conversion and lasting change.
spiritual home doors
The church is a home for all to come together, regardless of the depth or the height of our testimony. I know of no sign on the doors of our meetinghouses that says, Your testimony must be this tall to enter.
spiritual everlasting plans
In His plan there are no true endings. Only everlasting beginnings.
spiritual jesus despair
Though you may feel that no one understand the depth of your despair, our savior, Jesus Christ, understands.
children father men
Though we cannot understand "the meaning of all things," we do "know that God loveth his children" because He has said, "Behold, this is my work and my glory-to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man." Heavenly Father is able to accomplish these two great goals-the immortality and eternal life of man-because He is a God of creation and compassion. Creating and being compassionate are two objectives that contribute to our Heavenly Father's perfect happiness. Creating and being compassionate are two activities that we as His spirit children can and should emulate.
