Our lives are made up of thousands of everyday choices. Over the years these little choices will be bundled together and show clearly what we value.

Boyd K. Packer

Freedom is not a self-preserving gift. It has to be earned, and it has to be protected.
BOYD K. PACKER

Freedom Protected Self
Joseph’s vision of the Father and the Son opened this dispensation. Then came the Restoration of the fulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ with the same organization that existed in the primitive Church, built upon the foundation of apostles and prophets.
BOYD K. PACKER

Father Jesus Son Vision
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
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
We were given our agency. We must use it wisely and remain close to the Spirit; otherwise, we foolishly find ourselves yielding to the enticements of the adversary.
BOYD K. PACKER

Agency Enticements Otherwise Spirit Use
The purest, most beautiful and appealing experiences of life: romance, love, marriage, and parenthood.
BOYD K. PACKER

Beautiful Love Marriage Romance
There is a falsehood that some are born with an attraction to their own kind, with nothing they can do about it. They are just ‘that way’ and can only yield to those desires. That is a malicious and destructive lie. While it is a convincing idea to some, it is of the devil.
BOYD K. PACKER

Father Husband Lying
The house of the Lord, bathed in light, standing out in the darkness, becomes symbolic of the power and the inspiration of the gospel of Jesus Christ standing as a beacon in a world that sinks ever further into spiritual darkness.
BOYD K. PACKER

Darkness House Symbolic World
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

Agency Differences Giving
Often, very often, we are punished as much by our sins as we are for them.
BOYD K. PACKER

Offended Punish Sins
No teaching is equal, more spiritually rewarding, or more exalting than that of a mother teaching her children.
BOYD K. PACKER

Children Mother Teaching
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.
BOYD K. PACKER

Father Prayer Son
Some things that are true are not very useful.
BOYD K. PACKER

Some Thing Useful Very
At the temple the dust of distraction seems to settle out, the fog and the haze seem to lift, and we can ‘see’ things that we were not able to see before and find a way through our troubles that we had not previously known.
BOYD K. PACKER

Able Distraction Dust Fog Temple
Hit the ‘delete’ button when you have unrighteous thoughts.
BOYD K. PACKER

Buttons Delete Thought Unrigheous
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….Some needlessly carry a heavy burden of guilt which could be removed through confession and repentance.
BOYD K. PACKER

Burden heavy Needlessly Please
