[The Book of Mormon @thebookofmormon]

“They had been taught by their mothers, that if they did not doubt, God would deliver them. And they rehearsed unto me the words of their mothers, saying: We do not doubt our mothers knew it” (Alma 56:47–48).

[Jeffrey R. Holland @HollandJeffreyR]

In a world “tossed with tempest, and not comforted,” as Jehovah said it would be, how do we find peace? We find it by turning to Him who said He would have mercy on us and “with everlasting kindness” would grant peace to our children (see Isaiah 54:8, 10–11, 13).

[Latter-day Prophet Quotes @LDProphetQuotes]

"Could I suggest that we see gratitude as...a way of life that stands independent of our current situation? In other words, I’m suggesting that instead of being thankful for things, we focus on being thankful in our circumstances--whatever they may be." -Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Today is #InternationalDayofFriendship. Friendships are such an important part of our lives. As we make covenants with God, we find camaraderie and belonging with each other.

[Gerrit W. Gong @GerritWGong]

Disciples of Jesus Christ come from everywhere in every shape, size, hue, and age, each with talents, righteous desires, and immense capacities to bless and serve. We seek daily to follow Jesus Christ with faith unto repentance and enduring joy.

"Today, the Lord’s work in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is moving forward at an accelerated pace. The Church will have an unprecedented, unparalleled future." -Pres. Nelson

[Latter-day Prophet Quotes @LDProphetQuotes]

“Keep the commandments. Walk in the light. Endure to the end. Be true to every covenant and obligation, and the Lord will bless you beyond your fondest dreams." -Joseph Fielding Smith

[Gerrit W. Gong @GerritWGong]

The house of the Lord is a place where, as with the wounded man on the road to Jericho, the good Samaritan can cleanse and clothe us, prepare us to return to God’s presence, and unite us eternally in God’s family.

In the latest video in the “How I hear Him” series, Latter-Day Saint Apostle Elder Quentin L. Cook shares that as we strive to serve and bless others, we can receive that guidance that we need through the Holy Ghost. #HearHim

[Dieter F. Uchtdorf @UchtdorfDF]

Whether we reflect on who we tried to become over the past 6 or 60 years, or what we have learned during the last 60 minutes, it is through the grace of God—and through the Atonement of Jesus Christ—that we can change for the better and come closer to our heavenly destination.

[Russell M. Nelson @NelsonRussellM]

This morning we had the privilege of hosting leaders of the @NAACP and the @UNCF at Church Headquarters in Salt Lake City. We welcome these opportunities to build friendship and discuss shared initiatives that will continue to foster understanding and mutual respect.

[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints @Ch_JesusChrist]

In the latest #HearHim video, Elder @Ulisses__Soares shares an experience he had while serving as a mission president when the Lord spoke to him “in a warm and strong way.”

[Gerrit W. Gong @GerritWGong]

Miracles occur when we care for each other as Jesus Christ would. When we come with broken hearts and contrite spirits, we can find voice in Jesus Christ and be encircled in His understanding arms of safety.

“Our prayers are heard. And our faith is strengthened by prayer.”

[Russell M. Nelson @NelsonRussellM]

Sometimes it may feel as though some of our most fervent prayers go unanswered. I know that feeling! But I also know that our prayers are heard. And our faith is strengthened by prayer.

[Russell M. Nelson @NelsonRussellM]

I was pleased this morning to announce the construction of a new temple in Ephraim Utah and to share additional details about the renovation and preservation of the Manti Utah Temple. We are engaged in the work of Almighty God. https://t.co/XXzoK9L0dm
