There are many things about living the gospel of Jesus Christ that cannot be measured by that which is counted or charted in records of attendance.

Boyd K. Packer

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
Just as chalk can be removed from a chalkboard, with sincere repentance, the effects of our transgression can be erased through the atonement of Jesus Christ.
BOYD K. PACKER

Atonement Christ Jesus
A testimony is a testimony, and it should be respected, whether it is small or large.
BOYD K. PACKER

Repeated Should Testimony
I have a hard time with historians because they idolize the truth. The truth is not uplifting; it destroys. I could tell most of the secretaries in the church office building that they are ugly and fat. That would be the truth, but it would hurt and destroy them.
BOYD K. PACKER

Hard Hurt Times Uplifting
Seek worthy companions. Attend church faithfully. Never fail daily to seek for help through prayer. And I promise you that the way will be easier and you shall have a composure of mind and a confident attitude toward life and the future.
BOYD K. PACKER

After Ever Happens Happily
If you understand the great plan of happiness and follow it, what goes on in the world will not determine your happiness.

The Spirit is a voice that one feels more than hears.

There is little to be gained by seeking after the mysteries, for there is hardly time in a lifetime to master the plain and precious things.
BOYD K. PACKER

Lifetime Littles Mystery
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
It was meant to be that life would be a challenge. To suffer some anxiety, some depression, some disappointment, even some failure is normal.
BOYD K. PACKER

Disappointment Life Struggle
Keep the fire of your testimony of the restored gospel and your witness of our Redeemer burning so brightly that our children can warm their hands by the fire of your faith.
BOYD K. PACKER

Somewhere there is a message in the protest of the man who said, “You can’t tell me that worry doesn’t help. The things I worry about never happen.”
