“Be of good cheer. The future is as bright as your faith.”
( President Thomas S. Monson, President of the church , http://lds.org/general-conference/2009/04/be-of-good-cheer?)
The Power of the Priesthood
"I bear witness of the power of the priesthood given to the Church to protect us and guide us. And because we have that, we have no fear of the future. Fear is the opposite of faith. We move forward, certain that the Lord will watch over us, particularly in the family."
He Lives! All Glory to His Name
"Our understanding of and faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ will provide strength and capacity needed for a successful life."
Seek Learning by Faith
"Faith as the assurance of things hoped for looks to the future. This assurance is founded upon a correct understanding about, and trust in, God and enables us to 'press forward' (2 Nephi 31:20) into uncertain and often challenging situations in the service of the Savior."
Preparation Precedes Performance
‘‘We need the key of faith. No locked door can withstand its opening capacity. Faith is a requisite to this work. There is within our grasp the key which will unlock to our view that which we earnestly seek.’’
‘‘walk by faith.’’
Sins And Mistakes
Have faith. ''Has the day of miracles ceased''
Have faith. ''Has the day of miracles ceased''

Miracles Of Faith
“Hope is putting faith to work when doubting would be easier”

Face The Future With Faith
Why do we need such resilient faith? Because difficult days are ahead. Rarely in the future will it be easy or popular to be a faithful Latter-day Saint. Each of us will be tested. The Apostle Paul warned that in the latter days, those who diligently follow the Lord “shall suffer persecution.” That very persecution can either crush you into silent weakness or motivate you to be more exemplary and courageous in your daily lives. How you deal with life’s trials is part of the development of your faith.
‘’Truth, covenants, and ordinances enable us to overcome fear and face the future with faith’’
‘‘Teach of faith to know that obedience to the commandments of God will provide physical and spiritual protection. And remember, God’s holy angels are ever on call to help us.’’
Russel M. Nelson, http://lds.org/general-conference/2011/04/face-the-future-with-faith?lang=eng&query=face+future+with+faith
Murmur Not
"Those of deep faith do not murmur. They are generously disposed, and they are reluctant to murmur, even while in deep difficulties."
The Shield Of Faith
‘‘To sustain faith, each of us must be humble and compassionate, kind and generous to the poor and the needy. Faith is further sustained by daily doses of spirituality that come to us as we kneel in prayer. It begins with us as individuals and extends to our families, who need to be solidified in righteousness. Honesty, decency, integrity, and morality are all necessary ingredients of our faith and will provide sanctuary for our souls.’’
‘’Never before in the history of the world has the need for faith in God been greater.’’
God Grant Us Faith
‘‘With faith we must go forward toward the fulfillment of that commitment. It was faith, the simple faith of a fourteen-year-old boy that took him into the woods that spring morning. It was faith that took him to his knees in pleading for understanding. The marvelous fruit of that faith was a vision glorious and beautiful, of which this great work is but the extended shadow.’’
Gordon B. Hinckly, http://lds.org/general-conference/1983/10/god-grant-us-faith?lang=eng&query=face+future+with+faith
Your Happily Ever After
"There are those among you who, although young, have already suffered a full measure of grief and sorrow. My heart is filled with compassion and love for you. How dear you are to the Church. How beloved you are of your Heavenly Father. Though it may seem that you are alone, angels attend you. Though you may feel that no one can understand the depth of your despair, our Savior, Jesus Christ, understands. He suffered more than we can possibly imagine, and He did it for us; He did it for you. You are not alone."
The Faith To Move Mountain
‘‘Increased faith is what we most need. Without it, the work would stagnate. With it, no one can stop its progress.’’
‘‘But faith is not demonstrated only in big heroic events, such as the coming of the handcart pioneers. It is also demonstrated in small but significant events.’’
Gordon B. Hinckley, http://lds.org/general-conference/2006/10/the-faith-to-move-mountains?lang=eng&query=face+future+with+faith
