All in Jesus Christ
Heavenly Father speaks to us through the Holy Ghost. His voice is soft and gentle. It is not preceded by megaphones and handwritten posters. You will not see His message in a news ticker at the bottom of your TV screen. How the Holy Ghost speaks to us is individual for everyone. So, it is up to us to figure out just how we hear the Holy Ghost.
Having spiritual grit is critical in today’s world. It is our choice whether or not we remain true to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The actions we take each day will either bring us closer to Jesus Christ or further from Him.
In life, we often fail. We mess up. We make mistakes. And frequently we are hard on ourselves because of that. But just because we fail, doesn’t mean we are failures. And just because we make mistakes, doesn’t mean we are lost.
So, when Jesus taught his disciples to be perfect, he meant something completely different than what we in the world now might imagine. He didn’t expect us to never make a mistake. He didn’t expect us to speak, act, and be the finished product He helped designed us to be----YET.
We all need healing. This earth is a hospital, not a country club, and we all have need of the healing power of Christ. I testify that turning to the Savior can heal all that is broken in our lives.
This Easter season, let us rejoice that Jesus Christ lives. Let us have hope in His atonement and resurrection. Truly, there is great joy in Christ’s victory.
Heavenly Father has blessings ready for us. We don’t earn them; He freely gives them to us when we exercise faith in His name. Exercising our faith in Him, qualifies us for the blessings He has in store for us.
We can come to Him at our worst, and because of Him we can be made whole again. He will literally take the burdens from our backs and cut through years and years of neglect and filth if He needs to, to free us from whatever weighs us down.
The priesthood is the power and authority of God delegated to man on earth. It is through this priesthood that blessings are given.
He has felt our pain. He weeps with us. If we allow him, He can ease our burden. When we are weak, he can strengthen us. When we are broken, He can mend us. When we are sick, He can heal us. When we are half, He can make us whole. When there is a storm, He promises calm, so how can we doubt?
You can learn facts and details about Jesus Christ. But to really get to know who He is, you must spend time on your knees, in prayer.
They were firm and steadfast through the night. Despite the boredom. Despite the lack of tangible results. Despite the fact that they were most likely very lonely, underappreciated, and unseen. Despite it all, they were loving and protecting and continuing with their little flock. And they got to know Jesus.
This New Year, let us allow change to propel us forward, closer to Jesus Christ. It is because of Him that we have hope for a better tomorrow. It is because of Him that we can change our tomorrows by our choices today. Let us strive to live closer to Jesus Christ, let us change to be more like Him. And remember, tomorrow is always fresh.
As morning dawned, not only did the SUN arise and fill the world with light, but the SON also arose, bringing a more permanent and personal light into the world. His light reaches shadows we think of as too dark to see. His light warms our soul where there is coldness. His light carries the hope of better things to come. His light never ends and is always there for us.
"Seek the Christ" is a song that follows the efforts of the shepherds, wise men, Simeon, and one's own personal journey to seek Christ.
People have worn religious clothing for centuries—since Adam and Eve. (Genesis 3:21) Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that have made covenants in holy temples are no different. The holy garment is not a secret—it is, however, sacred.
The truth that mental illness is hiding, is that YOU are an eternal child of a Heavenly Father who loves YOU infinitely. The truth is that Jesus Christ did suffer for YOU and through His grace, YOU can overcome. The truth is that YOU are worth saving. The truth is that YOU are needed.
Joy is deeper than pleasure or even happiness. It is lasting. It is a knowledge and hope and assurance that there is a God who knows what He’s doing.
We do not heave any burden, reach any height, climb from any pit, conquer any self, carry any mantle, trudge any gulf, become anything, or walk any dreary trail alone. He is in it all.
Our dear Savior suffered in Gethsemane and on Calvary so you and I wouldn’t have to carry around heavy burdens. And He suffered not JUST for our sins, but for our sorrows and pains also. Everything I have packed into that theoretical brick of mine – He suffered for that.
