Humility and a contrite heart enable us to be in the Lord's presence.
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit
- Isaiah 57:15
As I listen to general conference talks and study Come, Follow Me, I find the Lord's word enriching my heart and mind. I'm so grateful that the heavens are open!
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
- Isaiah 55:10-11
With everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the Lord thy Redeemer.
- Isaiah 54:8
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.... Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows
- Isaiah 53:3-4
"Jesus Christ descended below all things and suffered “pains and afflictions and temptations of every kind”; therefore, He comprehends our suffering, is filled with mercy, and knows how to succor us according to our infirmities."
- By Elder Kevin J. Hathaway, October 2026
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him
that bringeth good tidings,
that publisheth peace;
that bringeth good tidings of good,
that publisheth salvation;
that saith unto Zion,
Thy God reigneth!
- Isaiah 52:7
"Our testimony is not a talent to be hidden. It is a gift to be shared—with grateful hearts and in a spirit of humility and love."
- Elder Gérald Caussé
