“Jesus Christ is the Treasure” by Dale G. Renlund

40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 34

QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:

[Jesus] is our mark…He is our Advocate with the Father and champions what the Father has wanted all along: for us to return to Him as inheritors in His kingdom… Jesus Christ is our treasure.
-Dale G. Renlund

SCRIPTURE:

And now, my beloved brethren, after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path, I would ask if all is done? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; for ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save.
-2 Nephi 31:19

INSPIRING QUOTE:

 “We too can be prone to look beyond the mark. We need to guard against this tendency lest we miss Jesus Christ in our lives and fail to recognize the many blessings He offers us. We need Him. We are counseled to rely ‘wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save.’
Dale G. Renlund

INVITATION TO ACT:

I encourage you to remember and always focus on Jesus Christ. He is our Savior and Redeemer, the “mark” to whom we should look, and our greatest treasure. As you come to Him, you will be rewarded with strength to face life’s challenges, courage to do what is right, and the ability to fulfill your mission in mortality. Treasure the opportunity to repent, the privilege of partaking of the sacrament, the blessing of making and keeping temple covenants, the delight of worshipping in the temple, and the joy of having a living prophet.
-Dale G. Renlund

A PROMISED BLESSING:

I bear my solemn and sure witness that God, the Eternal Father, is our Heavenly Father and that He lives; Jesus is the Christ; He is our kind, wise heavenly Friend; and this is His restored Church. Thank you for your faith and faithfulness. I pray that you will be blessed, prospered, and preserved.
-Dale G. Renlund
