Feelings Of Bitterness And Dissatisfaction Feed Upon

I Know That Every Difficulty We Face In Life, Even Those That Come From Our Own Negligence Or Even Transgression, Can Be Turned By The Lord Into Growth Experiences, A Virtual Ladder Upward. I Certainly Do Not Recommend Transgression As A Path To Growth. It Is Painful, Difficult, And So Totally Unnecessary. It Is Far Wiser And So Much Easier To Move Forward In Righteousness. But Through Proper Repentance, Faith In The Lord Jesus Christ, And Obedience To His Commandments, Even The Disappointment That Comes From Transgression Can Be Converted Into A Return To Happiness.

Oh, What A Favored People We Are To Have This Light, This Knowledge, These Opportunities For Happiness On Earth And Throughout The Eternities. May We Commit To Share A Knowledge Of This Magnificent Work, Personally Or Through Missionaries, With Our Friends And Neighbors That They May Join This Kingdom Of God On Earth, And Receive The Consummate, Eternal Blessings Available To Them.

Marriage Provides An Ideal Setting For Overcoming Any Tendency To Be Selfish Or Self-centered. I Think One Of The Reasons That We Are Counseled To Get Married Early In Life Is To Avoid Developing Inappropriate Character Traits That Are Hard To Change.

Faith In The Atonement Of Jesus Christ Will Provide Strength And Capacity Needed For A Successful Life.

I Bear Witness That The Savior Lives. He Loves You. He Will Guide You Through The Holy Ghost As You Steadfastly Choose To Do What Is Right To A Future Glorious Beyond Your Dreams. I Know He Will.
