Take hold of your life and order yourself to be valiant.

Boyd K. Packer

When some unworthy thought pushes into your mind, replace it with your delete key. Worthy music is powerful and can help you control your thoughts.
BOYD K. PACKER

Control Mind Thoughts Unworthy
Behold, he who has repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more.
BOYD K. PACKER

Lord Remember Repented Sin
I do not think it pleases the Lord when we worry because we think we never do enough or that what we do is never good enough.
BOYD K. PACKER

Enough Never Good Thinking Worry
In a sense, speaking figuratively, to take one’s agency, that precious gift which the scriptures make plain is essential to life itself, and say, “I will do as you direct,” is afterward to learn that in so doing you possess it all the more.
BOYD K. PACKER

Afterward Discovery Greatest Learn Scriptures
I’m not ashamed to say that I want to be good. And I’ve found in my life that it has been critically important to establish this intention between me and the Lord so that I knew that HE knew which way I committed my agency.
BOYD K. PACKER

The Restoration began with the prayer of a 14-year-old boy and a vision of the Father and the Son. The dispensation of the fulness of times was ushered in.

When temptation comes, you can invent a delete key in your mind- perhaps the words from a favorite hymn. Your mind is in charge; your body is the instrument of your mind.
BOYD K. PACKER

Delete Hymns Keys Powerful Words
You always hold the key of repentance to unlock the prison door. If they throw the word diversity at you, grab hold of it and say, “I am already diverse, and I intend to stay diverse.”
BOYD K. PACKER

Doors Integrity Keys
We live in a day when the adversary stresses on every hand the philosophy of instant gratification. We seem to demand instant everything, including instant solutions to our problems. . .
BOYD K. PACKER

Disappointment Philosophy Stress
If the word is tolerance, grab that one, too, saying, “I expect you to be tolerant of my lifestyle-obedience, integrity, abstinence, repentance.” If the word is choice, tell them you choose good, old-fashioned morality.
