“The Love of God” by Elder D. Todd Christofferson

40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 5

TALK: “The Love of God" by Elder D. Todd Christofferson

JESUS CHRIST:

“Ours is not a religion of rationalization nor a religion of perfectionism but a religion of redemption—redemption through Jesus Christ. If we are among the penitent, with His Atonement our sins are nailed to His cross, and “with his stripes we are healed.'” (Isaiah 53:5)

-D. Todd Christofferson

SCRIPTURE:

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” -John 3:15

INSPIRING QUOTE:

“Our Heavenly Father loves us profoundly and perfectly…His is a Father’s pure love—universal to all yet personal to each.”

-D. Todd Christofferson

INVITATION TO ACT:

“This divine love should give us abundant comfort and confidence as we pray to the Father in the name of Christ. Not one of us is a stranger to Them. We need not hesitate to call upon God, even when we feel unworthy. We can rely on the mercy and merits of Jesus Christ to be heard. As we abide in God’s love, we depend less and less on the approval of others to guide us.” 

-D. Todd Christofferson

PROMISED BLESSING:

“Because They love you, They do not want to leave you “just as you are.” Because They love you, They want you to have joy and success. Because They love you, They want you to repent because that is the path to happiness. But it is your choice—They honor your agency. You must choose to love Them, to serve Them, to keep Their commandments. Then They can more abundantly bless you as well as love you.”

 

“Indeed, His commandments are not grievous—just the opposite. They mark the path of healing, happiness, peace, and joy. Our Father and our Redeemer have blessed us with commandments, and in obeying Their commandments, we feel Their perfect love more fully and more profoundly.”

– D. Todd Christofferson

REFLECTION QUESTION:

  • What can I do to show my love to my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ?

LEARNING STYLE STUDY IDEA:

SOCIAL LEARNERS: Discuss as a family or with a few friends how the love of God is the solution to our problems. Discuss scenarios when the love of God can solve the problems in our lives. 

MY THOUGHTS:

The love of God is perfect. His love for each of us, His children is deep. God’s love is pure and “universal to all yet PERSONAL to each”. 

Heavenly Father loves each us how we need and want to be loved individually!! –ERIN
