The heart of the gospel is helping others feel God’s love, come closer to Jesus Christ, and find joy in living His teachings. 💙✨
"The aim and responsibility of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is simple: to help all of God's children feel His love, come unto Christ, and be saved by living the gospel of Jesus Christ." - Bishop Budge

We are so grateful for the reminder that we can find comfort in a Savior who willingly chose to understand our grief. 💙
"Yes, Christ was acquainted with grief, particularly even misunderstood grief, because He chose to be. He did not wait to be given grief. He used His agency to walk into ours."

We are grateful for the reminder of our purpose here on earth 🌎✨
We are human beings have a value that extends beyond this moment, this place. We are meant to be here, we are meant to exist, we are meant to be part to be part of bigger purpose, we are essential.

We were so excited to hear from President and Sister Reese today for the first Devotional of the fall semester. 💙🤙
"Nobody masters anything by staying within the safety of what they already know. There must be productive struggle and frequent failure. So don’t be embarrassed by the stumbles, champion them. They are badges of becoming."
- President C. Shane Reese

Grateful to have heard from Elder Patrick Kearon today! What a powerful reminder that peace in this life comes through Christ.
"If I have a wish for you, it is that you find peace in your actual life — not the life you think you would have if you were able to finish your to-do list, have three extra hours in a day, and finally achieve your goals. My wish is that you and I might slow down and turn more easily and comfortingly to Christ, and bask in His promised peace."

God’s covenant promises offer us peace, strength, healing, and joy. Whatever we face, we never face it alone. ✨
The beautiful and sacred covenant relationship with God offers us blessings including promises that the Lord will make all things work together for our good, succor or provide relief to us in our infirmities, give us grace and strength to overcome our weaknesses, grant us peace not found in the world, heal our broken hearts, and give us joy.

We're thankful for the reminder today that seeing others as Christ sees them can open the door to greater trust, empathy, understanding, and love. 🤍
God loves each of us equally. And, if we can see each other as Christ sees us, we can build a connection of trust, understanding, empathy, and love. This can create a sense of emotional connection regardless of our differences.
When this becomes hard to do, we must pray for this ability in our lives. We must pray to see the good in all people.

We are thankful for the reminder that through Jesus Christ, we can endure life’s storms and become more like Him as we patiently move forward with faith. 🌩💙
"Through Jesus Christ, because of Jesus Christ, and with Jesus Christ, we can endure through all the storms of mortality, patiently working toward the ultimate End: recognizing Him when He comes again because, through His grace, we have become like Him."

How did having a broader perspective help you at BYU?
Every act of service, every word of encouragement, and every step forward adds to the light we share. Together, those small, consistent efforts create a lasting impact. 💡✨
"Through steady, consistent efforts, our light grows and allows us to bless the lives of others."

Art connects generations, cultures, and experiences by giving us a language beyond words.🎨✨
"The greatest works of art do more than present something beautiful to observe. They invite us to see differently, feel differently, and ultimately become different. They do not replace language. They extend it, allowing us to experience aspects of life that often lie beyond the reach of explanation."

Physical sight may shape how we see the world, but spiritual sight shapes how we see the Savior. Thank you, Dr. Brooks, for your witness of Christ’s boundless love.🔦✨
"I clearly see my Savior in the center of my spiritual visual field. Could He one day restore my physical sight? Undoubtedly. [...] But even then, I should testify even more boldly of the greater way in which the works of God have been made manifest in my life, in the restoration of my spiritual vision.
I testify that He loves us with a depth and intensity for which there are no words." - Dr. Brooks
