FAITH



1) “Miracles are everywhere to be found when the priesthood is understood,its power is honored and used properly, and faith is exerted. When faithreplaces doubt, when selfless service eliminates selfish striving, thepower of God brings to pass His purposes.”

~President Monson (Willing and Worthy to Serve- APR 2012)



2) “Unless the roots of yourtestimony are firmly planted, it will be difficult for you to withstand theridicule of those who challenge your faith. When firmly planted, yourtestimony of the gospel, of the Savior, and of our Heavenly Father will influence all that you do throughout your life.”

~President Monson (May You Have Courage – APR 2009)



3) “…the first step tofull conversion is faith. Prayerful study of the Book of Mormon will buildfaith in God the Father, in His Beloved Son, and in His gospel. It will buildyour faith in God’s prophets, ancient and modern.”

~Henry B. Eyring (A Witness – OCT 2011)



4) “We are inclined to view ourown personal misfortunes through the distorted pris m of pessimism. Wefeel abandoned, heartbroken, alone. If you find yourself in such asituation, I plead with you to turn to our Heavenly Father in faith. He willlift you and guide you. He will not always take your afflictions from you,but He will comfort and lead you with love through whatever storm you face.”

~President Monson ( Looking Back and Moving Forward – APR 2008)



5) “The essential doctrine of agency requires that a testimony of the restoredgospel be based on faith rather than just external or scientific proof.”

~Quentin L. Cook ( In Tune with the Music of Faith-APR 2012)



6) “Please understand that having faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and keepingHis commandments are and always will be the defining test of mortality.Above all else, each of us must realize that when one is tone deaf to the music of faith, he or she is out of tune with the Spirit.”

~Quentin L. Cook ( In Tune with the Music of Faith –APR 2012)



7) “Whatever the difficulties confronting us, the weaknesses confining us, or the impossibilities surrounding us, let us have faith in the Son of God who declared; “All things are possible to him that believeth.”

~Neil L. Andersen (What thinks Christ of Me? APR 2012)



8) “Remove any of your fearwith faith. Trust the power of God to guide you.”

~M. Russell Ballard (That the Lost May be Found –APR 2012)



9) “Testimony requires the nurturing by the prayer of faith, the hungering for the word of God in the scriptures, and the obedience to the truth we have received. There is danger in neglecting prayer. There is danger to our testimony in only casual study and reading of the scriptures. They are necessary nutrients for our testimony.”

~Henry B Eryring (A Living Testimony – General YW Broadcast 2011)



10) “You must have faith to pray. You must have faith to ponder the word ofGod. You must have faith to do those things and go to those places whichinvite the Spirit of Christ and the Holy Ghost.”

~Henry B. Eyring (Walk in the Light – APR 2008)
