"Think of the purest, most all-consuming love you can imagine. Now multiply that love by an infinite amount--that is the measure of God's love for you....What this means is that, regardless of our current state, there is hope for us. No matter our distress, no matter our sorrow, no matter our mistakes, our infinitely compassionate Heavenly Father desires that we draw near to Him so that He can draw near to us."

1 Nephi 2:16

"And it came to pass that I Nephi, being exceedingly young, nevertheless being large in stature and also having great desires to know of the mysteries of God, wherefore, I did cry unto the Lord; and behold he did visit me, and did soften my heart that I did believe all the words which had been spoken by my father;wherefore I did not rebel against him..."

"There is great safety as the young people of the Church accept the gospel into their lives. There will be safety even in the times of great difficulty that are coming. there is a protection that they will have because of the mighty change that has come in their hearts. They will choose righteousness and find that they have no more desire to do evil. That change will come. It will not come in an instant; it will come over time. And there will be fortification created by the gospel of Jesus Christ through your faith and through your great efforts."
President Henry B. Eyring "We Must Raise our Sights" Ensign Sept 2004
