Encouraging Words

” God understands that we get there not in an instant but by taking one step at a time.

 

[We should not] contradict the genius of God, who created every man different from his brother, every son different from his father. Even identical twins are not identical in their personalities and spiritual identities.

 

Let us not give up. Let us be true to our covenants. Let us never lose sight of our Advocate and Redeemer as we walk toward Him, one imperfect step after another

 

It is our job to build up, repair, strengthen, uplift, and make whole.

 

This is a most noble labor that will challenge our every sense and stretch our every ability.

 

Perhaps you might think that you are not needed, that you are overlooked or unwanted, that you are nobody.

I am sincerely sorry if any priesthood holder feels this way. Certainly you are not overlooked or unwanted by your Heavenly Father.

 

This is why you are needed. You have your own special contribution to make, and God can magnify that contribution in a mighty way.

 

Rise up to your true potential as a son of God, and you can be a force for good in your family, your home, your community, your nation, and indeed in the world. “
