    I have never heard of this man before right now and I am not a Christian at Latter Day Saint but this man’s words ring true in my heart and I would have love to known him.

      I'd wished I'd met him in person, and yet I feel like I have. Keep watching his talks. You'll never get enough, I promise you. Blessings are raining down on us, if only we'd stop to notice them ☺

    I am fully behind these prophets because I know they are called of God and i know that because I prayed to God myself to ask specifically if they are his mouth peace. The feeling I got was unexplainable.

    It’s scary how Satan can get into our thoughts and make us worry so much about the past and the future and not find the Joys that we can and are PROMISED to feel each day if we only look to the Savior and LIVE. By reading our scriptures and praying daily to our Heavenly Father, and loving our neighbors and enemies we can and will become lost in the love and joy that the atonement of Jesus Christ and promised blessings from our Father in Heaven have to offer. Thank you for this reminder President Monson 🤍 I am going to do better at this

    Being grateful helps us to live happily, despite all of life's circumstances. Recently, I learned to be more grateful for the ability to feel physical pain. Upon feeling signs of diabetes and symptoms of neuropathy, I was fearful and went to do some research on the condition. Neuropathy is caused by nerve damage and could be detrimental to the point where complete sensation is lost. With the trial of diabetic neuropathy, I was able to learn to be grateful for the ability to feel physical pain, even if it is caused by others [accidentally] hurting me. When others hit me and I feel pain, that tells me that I still have the ability to feel and sense. That shows that my nerves are still at work. I am grateful. I am grateful for the many changes and trials in my life that has stregnthened me and helped me to become better and stronger than ever before. I testify of the Lord's power. I testify of His hands in our life. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

    "I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and non existent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey, now!" I love Pres. Monson's great advice on this! I needed this today!

    I wish I could tell President Monson today that I am serving a mission. Just as he asked me to do when I was just a little boy. “All worthy and able bodied young men should serve.” Those words stuck with me, they pierced me that day. I never thought I could serve… yet here I am.

    I love President Monson.
    The church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints.
    I thought how much different he is in teaching the same message and be a addiction to what his calling be , finding joy .
    A reverent talent that is a gift to understanding how important peace is reverently teaching by gifts in the spirit.
    He speaks like music is played poetic and spiritual it is scripture find joy and share it.
    He can negotiate in good faith , speaking ,, he has a special savor that i love in , how he shares the message and is one of my favorite.
    I know he is a bright .
    Some can , make it look easy , by the talent he shares in the hard work he be doing.
    I love his message spirituality like the tide , coming and going up and down , with slack time , as it leads the follows and follows the lead Chainging tides to be the first and the last making the last firts .
    Slack time is felt in a elevator , going up and down as it moves before coming and going with the tide up and down the beach coming in and going out , down the beachso direction is understood up and down , looking at nothing but ocean to find land and be clear of the shore line that changes.
    President Monson is , one of my favorite because he speaks by talent and gifts spirituality that makes savor in wanting to follow the Prophets and be more like Jesus in all I do and say.
    He is loved , he is One of a kind , teaching by his experience in others as he be in ours for time and eternity called and chosen by God a eternal Heavenly father and in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
    Jesus Christ is his Witness i can tell by the holy Ghost manifestation a meridian that comes to all that believe and have the knowledge to witness it for themselves by the work done and by being chosen before this life to testifying of the Righteousness that builds a house in the will of the father doing temple work coming to earth and be part of our salvation and be a everlasting covenant in Jesus Christ name Amen.

    When I feel anxious, my mornings involve listening to these incredible prophets of old. For they are eloquent & poetic in their content delivery always. Gratitude is a divine principle that should be honored and practiced daily. When life causes angst & heartache, you speak thanksgiving🙏 again and again and again. In those tender moments, you feel such an overwhelming "warmth" sensation as if the Holy Ghost has enveloped your delicate soul with grace. Stay focused on the nuances that take your breath away.

    This talk was amazing. Sometimes I feel like God is always looking down on me and being really disappointed in me, but I know He loves me a lot and wants me to be following His commandments and to come to and stay with Him. The same with Jesus Christ, the love Heavenly Father and Jesus is incredible. I feel so much love from the Holy Spirit right now, and I know my Heavenly Father loves me very much. I love Him too, and I need to improve my relationship with Him by a lot. I’m going to pray now, thank you so much for this talk.

    I was recently thinking about the song Childs Prayer in the part where it says "some say that Heaven is far away" and how its not. Literly u can be greatful for everything. I mean like those papers u get at school whatever they are called at your school that u get when the teacher thinks you are being a good student. Those papers are like thank you notes! I was looking in my jacket pocket(my siblings are suprized at how much i fit in there) and i found all of those papers i was talking about, and little paper butterfly shapes a random classmate gave me or something. I was so happy because i thought it was so cool! I love butterflies! And i was smiling about how people dont even realize how beautiful all these things are! I was origanaly gonna give all the paper rewards to my brother after i got out of middle school so that he could spend them on many things. I had a lot. I used to think of them as plain ol school money. I probobly still will give them to my brother, but im kinda hesetent they are so nice from teachers! Maybe i can keepthe number sence i numbered them all one year to make spending more simple, and keep one from each teacher. Honestly tho, idk if ill ever get around to it lol. But there are so many kind things that meen people do that not even they realize they do. And, i dont want to lable enyone as meen, i just dont like it, but im just sayn it so ya know what i mean. But ya! There is so much you can thank God for! Looking back i can see so much He has done for me that helps me feel better, it makes me smile😁 But ya, i have been learning a lot about gratitude lately. The funny thing is, i dont usualy think of it as gratitude, i think of it as seeing the real world!
