Quotes of the Week

-- Neil L. Andersen

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

I struggled for years to forgive myself and find peace. Then, as a priesthood leader, while assisting others to repent and helping them to feel the compassion, mercy, and love of the Savior, I realized that he could heal me. 

The Savior's healing and redeeming power applies to accidental mistakes, poor decisions, challenges, and trials of every kind -- as well as our sins. As I turned to Him, my feelings of guilt and remorse were gradually replaced with peace and rest.

-- Peter F. Meurs
