  8 Copy quote

• The gospel of Jesus Christ has the divine power to lift you to great heights from what appears at times to be an unbearable burden or weakness. The Lord knows your circumstances and your challenges. He said to Paul and to all of us, 'My grace is sufficient for thee.' And like Paul we can answer: 'My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me'(2 Corinthinans 12:9)".

  "Are You Sleeping through the Restoration?". Dieter F. Uchtdorf's address at the General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, www.lds.org. April 2014.

  12 Copy quote

• God is also fully aware that the people you think are perfect are not.
  And yet we spend so much time and energy comparing ourselves to others-usually comparing our weaknesses to their strengths. This drives us to create expectations for ourselves that are impossible to meet. As a result, we never celebrate our good efforts because they seem to be less than what someone else does

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Thinking, Expectations, People

• Love is the grand motive of the plan of salvation; it is the source of happiness, the ever-renewing spring of healing, the precious fountain of hope. As we extend our hands and hearts toward others in Christlike love, something wonderful happens to us. Our own spirits become healed, more refined, and stronger. We become happier, more peaceful, and more receptive to the whisperings of the Holy Spirit.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  14 Copy quote

• As you accept the responsibility to seek after truth with an open mind and a humble heart, you will become more tolerant of others, more open to listen, more prepared to understand, more inclined to build up instead of tearing down, and you will be more willing to go where God wants you to go.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Heart, Humble, Responsibility

  "What Is Truth?". www.lds.org.

  12 Copy quote

• You may think you don't have talents, but that is a false assumption, for we all have talents and gifts, every one of us. The bounds of creativity extend far beyond the limits of a canvas or a sheet of paper and do not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Creation means bringing into existence something that did not exist before-colorful gardens, harmonious homes, family memories, flowing laughter.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Laughter, Memories, Home

  8 Copy quote

• The Church is a home for all to come together, regardless of the depth or the height of our testimony. I know of no sign on the doors of our meetinghouses that says, “Your testimony must be this tall to enter.”

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Spiritual, Home, Doors

  "Receiving a Testimony of Light and Truth". www.lds.org. October, 2014.

  9 Copy quote

• Pride is the switch that turns off priesthood power. Humility is a switch that turns it on . . . . Some suppose that humility is about beating ourselves up. Humility does not mean convincing ourselves that we are worthless, meaningless, or of little value. Nor does it mean denying or withholding the talents God has given us. We don't discover humility by thinking less of ourselves; we discover humility by thinking less about ourselves. It comes as we go about our work with an attitude of serving God and our fellowman.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Attitude, Mean, Humility

• Have faith. The Lord can magnify the words you speak and make them mighty. God doesn’t ask you to convert but rather to open your mouths.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Mouths, Have Faith, Words You Speak

  9 Copy quote

• Spiritual light rarely comes to those who merely sit in the darkness waiting for someone to flick the switch.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Spiritual, Light, Waiting

  9 Copy quote

• Christ knows how to minister to others perfectly. When the Savior stretches out His hands, those He touches are uplifted and become greater, stronger, and better people as a result. If we are His hands, should we not do the same?

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Hands, People, Stronger

  12 Copy quote

• Daily simple, sincere, and mighty prayers lift our lives to a higher spiritual altitude. In our prayers we praise God, give thanks to Him, confess weaknesses, petition needs, and express deep devotion to our Heavenly Father. As we make this spiritual effort in the name of Jesus Christ, the Redeemer, we are endowed with increased inspiration, revelation, and righteousness, which bring the brightness of heaven into our lives.

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Spiritual, Jesus, Prayer

  8 Copy quote

• There is no end to the creativity, ingenuity, and tenacity of those who look for reasons to criticize. They cannot seem to release their grip on grudges. They gossip and find fault with others. They nurse wounds for decades, taking every opportunity to tear down and demean others. This is not pleasing to the Lord, 'for where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work' (James 3:16).

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Creativity, Opportunity, Nurse

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Destiny, Joy, Faithful

  Dieter F. Uchtdorf

  Uplifting, Children, Father

  11 Copy quote
