“As we feast upon the words of Christ, they will open the door to revelation and show us what we need to do in the various circumstances of our life to draw close to Him.” — Elder Ozani Farias | #GeneralConference
“If we remain faithful in our service, the Lord will refine us. He will strengthen us. And one day we will look back and see that those very trials were evidence of His love.” — @EyringHB | #GeneralConference
“I am proving you, but I’m always with you.”
“When we continue to have faith in Jesus Christ—even when things might feel impossible to us at the moment—we become spiritually stronger."

“I learned that my struggle with physics was actually a gift from the Lord. He was teaching me that with His help, I could do things that seemed impossible if I had the faith that He would be there to help me.” — @EyringHB | #GeneralConference
This morning, I described how blessed it is to be a peacemaker and how peacemaking begins in the most basic place: in our hearts, then in homes and families.
As we practice there, peacemaking will spread into our neighborhoods and communities.
Peacemakers are sometimes labeled naive or weak from all sides. Yet, to be a peacemaker is not to be weak, but to be strong in a way the world may not understand.
“The Family: A Proclamation to the World” states, “The family is ordained of God.” I love the clarity of that statement.
The Family Proclamation is a call for us to live in mortality, ever mindful of the divinity within us, and the eternal future that lies before us.
The principles are not out of step—but perfectly in step with the ways of the Lord and His covenant path.
The teachings of the Proclamation were revealed by our Lord Jesus Christ to His Apostles then and now. This is His Church; He has established the truths by which we live.
Our Father in Heaven has provided this proclamation to help guide us home to Him, to help us learn and be filled with love, strength, purpose, and eternal understanding. #GeneralConference #HearHim
In Jesus Christ’s restored Church, we are all better when no one sits alone.
Today, many feel lonely and isolated. Social media and artificial intelligence can conjure a mirage of digital connectedness that leaves us thirsting for human closeness and human touch.
We want to hear each other’s voices. We want authentic belonging and kindness.
In His Church and through His ordinances and covenants, Jesus Christ can heal and bless us. By coming to each other and to Him, we love and are loved, serve and are served, forgive and are forgiven.
Let us not simply accommodate or tolerate. Let us genuinely welcome, acknowledge, minister to, love. May each friend, sister, brother, not be a foreigner or stranger but a child at home. #GeneralConference #HearHim
"You are a blessed being of light; the spirit child of an infinite God! And you bear within you a potential beyond your capacity to imagine.
Your origin story is divine, and so is your destiny. You left heaven to come here, but heaven has never left you! You are anything but ordinary.
You are gifted!
As the great prophet Moroni said, 'Deny not the gifts of God, for they are many; and they come from the same God.' They might manifest themselves in 'different ways …; but it is the same God who worketh all in all'” (Moroni 10:8). #GeneralConference #HearHim
