"Cuando nuestra fe se centra en Jesucristo, Él promete paz espiritual sin importar nuestras circunstancias. Podemos experimentar gozo en nuestro aquí y ahora gracias a Él y a través de nuestra relación por convenio con Él." - Élder Dale G. Renlund #ConferenciaGeneral
Putting money or something of value at risk to bet on a particular outcome or event is an activity that has plagued mankind almost, I suppose, from the beginning of time.
And time has not made it any more worthwhile or any less harmful. Unfortunately, in recent years, gambling has become incredibly pervasive.

Many of our hearts ache for loved ones who have stepped away from obedience to God’s laws.
In our grief, we continuously ponder the whys, hows, and what ifs. We feel we have failed. We preach, teach, and invite—but often to no avail.
By divine design, brothers and sisters, everyone must choose for themselves to follow Jesus Christ.
I ask you to turn over to Jesus Christ your despair for those wayward souls.
We cannot change their hearts, but He can; He is a God of miracles.
Our Savior has already paid for the sins and errant choices of all of God’s children, including those for whom you and I grieve. He knows them. He knows their hearts; He loves them. He gave His very life to bring them home, all the way home.
By the power of Jesus Christ’s Atonement, there is always a way back!
In the vernacular, the Savior says to all who grieve, “I’ve got this!”
Never, never, give up on those you love.
Remember Jesus Christ is the answer. He is, always has been, and always will be.
Trust Him. He’s got this!

"Con reverencia, me pregunto cómo se siente un Padre Celestial amoroso al enviar Sus pertenencias más preciadas, Sus hijos, lejos de su hogar celestial, sabiendo que deben afrontar los desafíos de la vida terrenal. Supongo que Su gran consuelo es saber que no viajan solos. Padres, familiares, líderes, amigos, hermanos y hermanas ministrantes, ustedes y yo servimos como mayordomos de Sus posesiones más preciadas.
¡Cuán amados y preciados son Sus hijos para Él!
¡Y cuán amados y bendecidos son aquellos que cuidan y nutren a los demás!"

"...La vastedad del universo supera toda capacidad de comprensión; sin embargo, cada alma tiene valor infinito a los ojos de nuestro Creador. Aunque parezcamos pequeños en el sentido físico, nuestro Padre Eterno y Su Hijo, Jesucristo, nos conocen, recuerdan y aman a cada uno de nosotros individualmente." — Por el élder Gérald Caussé (@gerald_causse)

Enduring to the end is not merely a relentless determination to grit our teeth, hold on to the limits of our physical strength and mental capacity, and push through the challenges and adversities of mortal life; it is so much more than that.
Enduring to the end is linked inextricably to the spiritual gift of charity, or the pure love of Christ. As we are blessed to receive this supernal gift, a transformation occurs in our spiritual nature and character. Charity encompasses both what we do and what we can become as this spiritual gift ultimately possesses us.
As we follow, love, and serve the Savior, we gradually focus less on our own desires and interests, and more on understanding and addressing the needs of others. We do not merely perform benevolent deeds; rather, our state of being is changed and becomes increasingly Christlike. Charity, then, ultimately possesses us.
The scriptural phrase “endure to the end” is a repeated reminder of the mighty spiritual change in our hearts that should be ongoing throughout our lives; it also is His promise of what we may become if we truly are possessed of the pure love of Christ. #GeneralConference
As the years have passed, I have become increasingly humbled as I have thought about, studied, and found immense comfort in the immeasurable gift of our Savior, the Atonement of Jesus Christ. The human mind can scarcely begin to comprehend how completely the destiny of mankind changed because of what happened in Gethsemane, on the cross, and at the tomb.
There are no words to describe the magnitude of His precious gift. It will never be required of another. Jesus Christ suffered “once for all” (Hebrews 10:10).
As one of His ordained Apostles, I have experienced the spiritual and personal moments that have brought to me a sure and certain witness that Jesus Christ lives. At this Easter season, may we rejoice in singing:
“He is risen! He is risen! ...
Death is conquered; man is free.
Christ has won the victory”
(“He Is Risen!” Hymns, no 199).
Nearly 2000 years ago, Palm Sunday marked the beginning of the last week of the mortal ministry of Jesus Christ. Scriptures tell us that the week began with throngs standing at the gates of the city to see “Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee” (Matthew 21:11).
Though we do not stand at the gates of Jerusalem today with palms in our hands, the time will come when “all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, [will stand] before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands” (Revelation 7:9). #GreaterLove
We rejoice in remembering our Savior, Jesus Christ. He was born in humble circumstances. Heavenly angels heralded His birth. He preached the gospel of repentance, hope, and everlasting life.
He opened the eyes of the blind, made the deaf to hear, healed all manner of afflictions, and raised the dead. He is the Only Begotten of our Father in Heaven, the Firstborn of God’s spirit children. Through His sacrifice and infinite Atonement, we can be reconciled with God by obedience and repentance.
In this season of light and goodwill, we rejoice in Jesus Christ and in His eternal plan of happiness. We invite you to seek Him and the blessings of His peace. Merry Christmas!
