“I assure you that our Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, love you. They are intimately aware of your circumstances, your goodness, your needs, and your prayers for help.”
-Russell M. Nelson
Let us spread peace by gathering all who hunger and thirst. As disciples of Christ, the light He gives has never been more needed than now. He can heal us and He is reaching for us all! https://t.co/2XQ4eKlzjo
At the Silicon Slopes Summit yesterday, I was asked if I could help people understand the scale of the global operations of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I described the Church’s four overarching responsibilities:
-Learn and live the gospel of Jesus Christ
-Invite all to receive the gospel of Jesus Christ
-Strengthen and unite families
-Care for those in need
The Church’s operations are focused on accomplishing this mission. This work includes ensuring the successful operation and maintenance of almost 20,000 meetinghouses and approved facilities for 35,000 local congregations; 315 temples (with more to come); and four institutions of higher education—among many other things. In learning from the example of Joseph in the Old Testament who interpreted the dream for Pharoah, we are also grateful that in times of plenty we can save and prepare for the future when resources may be scarcer. This approach is necessary to accomplish the mission for which The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was restored—to bless the lives of individuals and families everywhere.
For many, Christmas is a joyful season. At the same time, some of us feel alone, isolated, or sad. Let us celebrate Christmas by following Jesus Christ to do all we can to make sure there is room in His inn for each of us. As we do so, we will find the true meaning of Christmas.
We cannot see the love of God
Which saves us from the fall,
Yet know that Christ from wood and nails
Built mansions for us all.

Please don't be discouraged or depressed by your shortcomings. No one is without weakness. That is part of the divine plan - to determine if you will master that weakness, or let the weakness master you.
“The blessings will come to those who hold fast to the gospel of Jesus Christ. That issue was settled in a very private garden and on a very public hill in Jerusalem long ago.” #ElderHolland | #GeneralConference
