“A Higher Joy” by Dieter F. Uchtdorf

40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 23

QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:

I have also experienced for myself the glorious dawn that fills the soul with joy so profound that it can scarcely be kept in. I have discovered for myself that this peaceful confidence comes from following the Savior and walking in His Way.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf

SCRIPTURE:

Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.
-2 Nephi 2:25

INSPIRING QUOTE:

As amazing as that joy is, there is an even higher kind of joy. …I would like to speak about this higher joy—where it comes from, how it enters our hearts, and how we can experience it in greater measure.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

INVITATION TO ACT:

During the coming days, weeks, and months, may I invite you to: 

  • Spend time in a sincere, full-hearted effort to draw near to God.
  • Seek diligently for everyday moments of hope, peace, and joy.
  • Bring joy to others around you.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

A PROMISED BLESSING:

As you search the word of God for a deeper understanding of God’s eternal plan, accept these invitations, and strive to walk in His Way, you will experience ‘the peace of God, which passeth all understanding,’ even in the midst of sorrows. You will feel a greater measure of God’s unsurpassable love swelling within your heart. The dawn of celestial light will penetrate the shadows of your trials, and you will begin to taste the unspeakable glories and wonders of the unseen, perfect, heavenly sphere. You will feel your spirit lifting away from the gravity of this world.”

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

REFLECTION QUESTION:

  • Am I looking for the good? Why or why not?
