40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 2
QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:
“I bear witness that when Christ comes, He needs to recognize us—not as nominal members listed on a faded baptismal record but as thoroughly committed, faithfully believing, covenant-keeping disciples.”
-Jeffrey R. Holland
SCRIPTURE:
“Yea, I know that God will give liberally to him that asketh. Yea, my God will give me, if I ask not amiss; therefore I will lift up my voice unto thee; yea, I will cry unto thee, my God, the rock of my righteousness. Behold, my voice shall forever ascend up unto thee, my rock and mine everlasting God. Amen.”
-2 Nephi 4:35
INSPIRING QUOTE:
“I testify that God hears every prayer we offer and responds to each of them according to the path He has outlined for our perfection… It is for reasons known only to God why prayers are answered differently than we hope—but I promise you they are heard and they are answered according to His unfailing love and cosmic timetable.”
–Jeffrey R. Holland
INVITATION TO ACT:
“We need to believe in angels and miracles and the promises of the holy priesthood. We need to believe in the gift of the Holy Ghost, the influence of good families and friends, and the power of the pure love of Christ. We need to believe in revelation and prophets, seers, and revelators and President Russell M. Nelson. We need to believe that with prayer and pleading and personal righteousness, we really can ascend to ‘Mount Zion, … the city of the living God, the heavenly place, the holiest of all.’”
-Jeffrey R. Holland
A PROMISED BLESSING:
“Brothers and sisters, as we repent of our sins and come boldly to the ‘throne of grace,’ leaving before Him there our alms and our heartfelt supplications, we will find mercy and compassion and forgiveness at the benevolent hands of our Eternal Father and His obedient, perfectly pure Son.”
-Jeffrey R. Holland
