We lighten the loads of others best by helping the Lord strengthen them.

President Henry B. Eyring

First Counselor in the First Presidency

April 2015 general conference

“You are a covenant member of the Church of Jesus Christ. A great change began in your heart when you came into the Church. You made a covenant, and you received a promise that began changing your very nature. …

“That is why you have a feeling to want to help a person struggling to move forward under a load of grief and difficulty. You promised that you would help the Lord make their burdens light and be comforted. You were given the power to help lighten those loads when you received the gift of the Holy Ghost. …

“… We lighten the loads of others best by helping the Lord strengthen them. That is why the Lord included in our charge to comfort others the command to be His witnesses at all times and in all places.”

President Henry B. Eyring, First Counselor in the First Presidency, April 2015 general conference

We must never lose our sense of awe and profound gratitude for the eternal sacrifice of the Son of God.

President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Second Counselor in the First Presidency

April 2015 general conference

“We often speak of the Savior’s Atonement—and rightly so!

“In Jacob’s words, ‘Why not speak of the atonement of Christ, and attain to a perfect knowledge of him?’ [Jacob 4:12]. But as ‘we talk of Christ, … rejoice in Christ, … preach of Christ, [and] prophesy of Christ’ [2 Nephi 25:26] at every opportunity, we must never lose our sense of awe and profound gratitude for the eternal sacrifice of the Son of God.

“The Savior’s Atonement cannot become commonplace in our teaching, in our conversation, or in our hearts. It is sacred and holy.”

President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Second Counselor in the First Presidency, April 2015 general conference

We see God’s miracles in His wondrous work and in our own personal lives.

Elder Neil L. Andersen

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

April 2015 general conference

“Brothers and sisters, seeing and believing the Lord’s miracles in establishing His kingdom on earth can help us see and believe that the Lord’s hand is at work in our own lives as well.

“The Lord declared, ‘I am able to do mine own work’ [2 Nephi 27:20]. We each try to do our part, but He is the grand architect. Under the direction of His Father, He created this world. ‘All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made’ [John 1:3]. As we are spiritually awake and alert, we see His hand across the world and we see His hand in our own personal lives.

“… We see God’s miracles in His wondrous work and in our own personal lives.”

Elder Neil L. Andersen of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, April 2015 general conference

The gospel is a fountain of knowledge that never runs dry.

Bishop Gérald Caussé

First Counselor in the Presiding Bishopric

April 2015 general conference

“We should hunger and thirst every day after spiritual knowledge. This personal practice is founded on study, meditation, and prayer. Sometimes we might be tempted to think, ‘I don’t need to study the scriptures today; I’ve read them all before’ or ‘I don’t need to go to church today; there’s nothing new there.’

“The gospel is a fountain of knowledge that never runs dry. There is always something new to learn and feel each Sunday, in every meeting, and in every verse of scripture. In faith we hold to the promise that if we ‘seek, … [we] shall find’ [Matthew 7:7].”
