"I Am with the Faithful Always"
Repentance is God’s ever-accessible gift that allows and enables us to go from failure to failure without any loss of enthusiasm. Repentance isn’t His backup plan in the event we might fail. Repentance is His plan, knowing that we will...He proffers us weekly pardon as we progress from failure to failure along the covenant path...But just how many times will He forgive us? ....“Yea, and as often as my people repent will I forgive them their trespasses against me.”

One of the most sacred purposes for which the scriptures were written was to make it possible for all to know Christ. The scriptures teach and testify of Jesus Christ. They teach us much that we need to know and to do to return to the presence of the Savior.
…The scriptures should be of the greatest importance in our lives...The scriptures are spiritual food for our spirit, which is just as important as physical food for our body…The pattern is the same for individuals as it is for nations. Without searching the scriptures, they cease to know the Savior.
- L. Lionel Kendrick, Search the Scriptures
We take upon ourselves the name of Christ and always remember Him. That is imprinted upon us. The prophet Nephi declared, “We talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins”. Each of us must come to our own personal testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ. We then share that testimony with our family and others.
- Boyd K. Packer, The Witness
We need to ask in faith to know the will of the Lord and accept that the Lord knows what is better for us…Many times answers to prayer will not come right away. But we must have faith to continue, act in righteousness, and be persistent…The Lord will show us a little bit at a time; as we study the scriptures, the Lord will give us the answers or the necessary strength for us to get through one more day, one more week, and to try one more time.

Our physical bodies make possible a breadth, a depth, and an intensity of experience that simply could not be obtained in our premortal existence...there are lessons we must learn and experiences we must have, as the scriptures describe, “according to the flesh”… living the law of chastity invites some of the greatest blessings men and women can receive in mortality: appropriate spiritual confidence in the presence of family, friends, Church associates, and, ultimately, the Savior.

Reverence for sacred things is the greatest manifestation of a vital spiritual quality; it is a by-product of our connection to holiness and reflects our love for and proximity to our Heavenly Father and our Savior, Jesus Christ...Such virtue directs our thoughts, hearts, and lives toward Deity. In fact, reverence is not just an aspect of spirituality; it is the essence of it… The meaning and importance of reverence for what is sacred is well outlined throughout the scriptures.
