Faith Will Move Mountains

By President Russell M. Nelson

Adapted from “Christ Is Risen; Faith in Him Will Move Mountains,” Liahona, May 2021.

Everything good in life—and every blessing—begins with faith. In the Bible, Jesus promised that if we “have faith as a grain of mustard seed,” we will be able to move mountains (Matthew 17:20). Your mountains may be loneliness, doubt, illness, or other problems.

The mustard seed represents a small but growing faith. The mustard seed starts small but grows into a tree large enough for birds to nest in its branches. I ask you to start today to increase your faith. Here are some ways you can build your faith and trust.

Learn about Jesus Christ by reading the scriptures. Learn about His miracles.
Choose to believe in Him. Think about Him every day.
Act in faith. Be baptized and take the sacrament.
Ask Heavenly Father to help you.

Your faith in Jesus Christ will move mountains. Faith will help you turn challenges into amazing opportunities.
