Elder Uchtdorf's conference talk is delightful and promises a memorable discussion for your group. I am reminded of a time in the Saviors life when many abandoned Him.10 Jesus asked His twelve disciples: Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? The words of Doctrine and Covenants 58:42 are some of the most inspiring and encouraging in scripture: He who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more. What joy this gives me to know that if I continue to repent, in that future day when I shall fall on my knees before my Savior and Redeemer, He will lift me up and embrace me. Eternal life or spiritual death?8. As it was with the citizens of Berlin, so it can be with us.

Your testimony of Christ, born of the Holy Ghost, can help you look past the disappointing endings in mortality and see the bright future that the Redeemer of the world has prepared. There are times when we have to answer the same question. Without landmarks, it is human nature to drift off course. So the problem with listing every possible do and dont isnt just that its impractical and unsustainable. Lift Where You Stand, 2008. True, it is important to frequently count our blessingsand anyone who has tried this knows there are manybut I dont believe the Lord expects us to be less thankful in times of trial than in times of abundance and ease. Rarely do we have to pay much attention to keeping our balance on our bicycles. The guest replied that everything was fine, but it would have been better if they had served more bread. Dieter F. Uchtdorf teaches that we can choose to be grateful in any circumstances, including in the midst of tribulation. This time of bleakness after World War II left its mark upon the world.

One look into His eyes and we would never be the same. It wasnt until later that I learned from the scriptures that my conduct and my attitude on the Sabbath constituted a sign between me and my Heavenly Father. Elder Uchtdorf was quick to point out that his family joined the Church through the efforts of a member missionary while his wife's family found the truth through full-time missionaries. It is difficult to develop a spirit of gratitude if our thankfulness is only proportional to the number of blessings we can count. The answer is forward thrust. Elders SpencerW.

Elder Pearson teaches that God expects us to willingly place the Savior at the center of our lives. But we earnestly desire to overcome our faults and the tendency to sin. We can choose to be like the Mormon pioneers, who maintained a spirit of gratitude during their slow and painful trek toward the Great Salt Lake, even singing and dancing and glorying in the goodness of God.6 Many of us would have been inclined to withdraw, complain, and agonize about the difficulty of the journey. Let us take this a step further. Think of it as your personal, daily restoration., When darkness creeps in, as it often does, daily restoration opens ones heart to heavenly light, which illuminates the soul, chasing away shadows, fears and doubts. It takes time. Once there was a man who dreamed that he was in a great hall where all the religions of the world were gathered. "Lord, I Believe" - Elder Jeffrey R. Holland.

From that day forward, the heavens opened, and heavenly messengers descended from halls of immortal glory. Dieter F. Uchtdorf Of the First Presidency January 13, 2013 If you follow the Spirit, your personal search for the truth inevitably leads you to the Lord and Savior, even Jesus Christ, for He is "the way, the truth, and the life."

Very few of us will ever be asked to sacrifice our lives for the Savior. This is what the widow at the temple treasury seemed to understand. And yet He taught them many of the same things He taught in the Holy Land. Rather, we put it to use in the Lords service. Conflict is inevitable, but contention is a choice, Elder Uchtdorf tweeted on Sept. 24.

One of the purposes of the Church is to nurture and cultivate the seed of faitheven in the sometimes sandy soil of doubt and uncertainty. We cannot adjust the volume on others bitterness or rage. That has been the pattern from the days of Adam until now., Spiritual landmarks like daily prayer, scripture study and approaching God in humility and honesty can help keep one on the path. And, to be perfectly frank, there have been times when members or leaders in the Church have simply made mistakes. But how is this possible?
