He Enlightens Them




You need never be discouraged or afraid. The way through difficulties has always been prepared for you, and you will find it if you exercise faith."
Henry B. Eyring


"You could ask yourself, 'How did God Bless me today?' If you do that long enough and with faith, you will find yourself remembering blessings. And sometimes you will have gifts brought to your mind which you failed to notice during the day, but which you will then know were a touch of God's hand in your life."
Henry B. Eyring


""The children of God have more in common then they have differences.""
Henry B. Eyring


"You may have confidence in the Lord's service. The Savior will help you do what He has called you to do, be it for a time as a worker in the Church or forever as a parent. You may pray for help enough to do the work and know that it will come."
Henry B. Eyring (Because He First Loved Us)


"You make choices every day and almost every hour that keep you walking in the light or moving away toward darkness.
Some of the most important choices are about what you set your heart upon."
Henry B. Eyring, "


"Love is the motivating principle by which the Lord leads us along the way towards becoming like Him, our perfect example. Our way of life, hour by hour, must be filled with the love of God and love for others."
Henry B. Eyring,


"My purpose today is to assure you that our Heavenly Father and the Savior live and that They love all humanity. The very opportunity for us to face adversity and affliction is part of the evidence of Their infinite love. God gave us the gift of living in mortality so that we could be prepared to receive the greatest of all the gifts of God, which is eternal life. Then our spirits will be changed. We will become able to want what God wants, to think as He thinks, and thus be prepared for the trust of an endless posterity to teach and to lead through tests to be raised up to qualify to live forever in eternal life.
Henry B. Eyring


"I bear you my testimony that God the Father lives. He set a course for each of us that can polish and perfect us to be with Him. I testify that the Savior lives. His Atonement makes possible our being purified as we keep His commandments and our sacred covenants. And I know from my own experience that He can and will give us strength to rise through every trial. . . . This is the Lord's true Church in which we are, with Him, lifting each other and being blessed to succor the fellow sufferers He places in our way."
Henry B. Eyring,


"We cannot control what others choose to do, and so we cannot force our children to heaven,
but we can determine what we will do.
And we can decide that we will do all we can to bring down
the powers of heaven into that family we want so much to have forever."
Henry B. Eyring



"If you ponder the scriptures and begin to do what you covenanted with God to do, I
 can promise you that you will feel more love for God and more of His love for you."
 Henry B. Eyring


"We can and must go often and carefully to the word of God. If we become casual in our study of the scriptures, we will become casual in our prayers."
-- Henry B. Eyring


"God not only loves the obedient - He enlightens them."
Henry B. Eyring


 "The Savior will let you feel the love He feels for those you serve. The call is an invitation to become like Him."
 Henry B. Eyring


"Your life is carefully watched over, as was mine. The Lord knows both what He will need you to do and what you will need to know. He is kind and He is all-knowing. So you can with confidence expect that He has prepared opportunities for you to learn in preparation for the service you will give. You will not recognize those opportunities perfectly, as I did not. But when you put the spiritual things first in your life, you will be blessed to feel directed toward certain learning, and you will be motivated to work harder. You will recognize later that your power to serve was increased, and you will be grateful.
"
Henry B. Eyring
