@TruthHolder2023 @michcooley Praying that the Lord will bless you during this trial and that you can soon find peace. 💕

Joy isn’t simply about smiling, laughter, or even being happy. It's about drawing nearer to Jesus Christ through dedication to Him and His commandments. It is rejoicing in His goodness and mercy, the hope for eternal life, and peace in our hearts today.

@TruthHolder2023 Thanks for this reminder!

@StewartJacob14 @justin_hart So thankful that I belong to a fiscally responsible church that is able to help billions in need!

Happy Family Month! Repost if you support the Family Proclamation! Let’s #FloodXwithTruth!

“ These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” John 15:11

@VoteTrevorLee @VVenerabilis I feel that in our quest for love of others and acceptance to allow others to worship/do as they wish - allowing for choice- it has muted our voices. Always afraid to offend. Instead, we need to loving stand for God’s gospel.

I LOVE the Sabbath Day! As one who did grow up with lists of what is and isn’t appropriate on the Sabbath, I am appreciative of this direction from President Russell M. Nelson: “I learned from the scriptures that my conduct and my attitude on the Sabbath constituted a sign between me and my Heavenly Father. With that understanding, I no longer needed lists of dos and don’ts. When I had to make a decision whether or not an activity was appropriate for the Sabbath, I simply asked myself, ‘What sign do I want to give to God?’ That question made my choices about the Sabbath day crystal clear.” (end quote) Throughout the week my mind often goes to the many tender mercies God gives me throughout any given day— I often find my heart drawn out in gratitude for the many blessings that come to me through being a member of this church— Tears flow as I think of how Jesus Christ will never leave or forget me, how He has ALWAYS been there for me in the darkest and most crushing times of my life. My thoughts are with Him, but we run at such an accelerated pace. So as Sunday approaches each week, I am grateful to have time specifically set aside to WORSHIP him in greater abundance. I know exactly what sign I hope to send to God— I want to spend my time focusing on Jesus Christ and doing things that will strengthen my relationship with Him. To make it a day of Heavenly connection as much as possible. To truly make it a different day from the other days of the week— not just an extension of them. To make it a day where the deepest desire of my heart is to draw closer to Him and hear His voice more clearly. To draw down power from heaven that can’t come in any other way. And to let Him know, without question, that HE is the most important person in my life, and that I could never thank Him enough for what He has done, and continues to do for me! As Mark taught— “The Sabbath is made for man, not man for the Sabbath.” In EVERYTHING we are commanded to do, the Lord is inviting us to come closer to Him. Blessings are ALWAYS awaiting us! HAPPY SABBATH!

Dallin H. Oaks may be the most prolific writer and speaker in the modern Church. Which is why dismissing his spiritual gifts takes a kind of willful ignorance. Between one of the most decorated legal careers of his generation, serving as BYU president, sitting on the Utah Supreme Court, chairing the PBS board, sustained advocacy for religious freedom across multiple decades and multiple countries, and then four decades as an apostle and now president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The man has spent a lifetime putting his convictions on paper. Read his writings. Listen to his speeches. Watch the example of his life. Hold all of it against the backdrop of what the world is actually facing right now. If you do all that and still don't walk away knowing he's a prophet, or at minimum a man who developed more genuine spiritual gifts in a single lifetime than most people will ever encounter, that's a skill issue.

@latterdaylaura Hang names and create a family tree.

@jesse_k_fox When my son left I told him I would continue to talk about my spiritual experiences or scriptures. I told him it wasn’t because I was trying to talk him back, but because that’s who I am. He’s okay with that and we’re able to have great spiritual discussions. Someday….

I’ll follow back everyone who reposts this:

Jesus taught that there are two great commandments... 1. Love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength 2. Love your neighbor as yourself You can love others without celebrating things that are contrary to His eternal truths about marriage, family and gender. In fact, that is what He asks of you.

“But behold, that which is of God inviteth and enticeth to do good continually; wherefore, every thing which inviteth and enticeth to do good, and to love God, and to serve him, is inspired of God.” Moroni 7:13

“There is nothing easy or automatic about becoming such powerful disciples. Our focus must be riveted on the Savior and His gospel. It is mentally rigorous to strive to look unto Him in every thought. But when we do, our doubts and fears flee.” -Russell M. Nelson

@j_divis So grateful for a prophet!

@JEdwardsUtah @ybobbjr Away for many years I came back, one foot in one foot out for many years. One day decided to move forward and went to the temple. I have never looked back. Understanding and testimony has grown exponentially! Love this Gospel, Love my Savior!

When Jesus was baptized, all three beings of the godhead were present. 1. Jesus, God the Son, was in the water. 2. God the Father’s voice testifying of Jesus. 3. The Holy Ghost, as evidenced by the “sign of the dove.”

@GerritWGong @PeacemakingSt Grateful for the Apostles of yesterday and today. Thank you Elder Gong.
