Encouraging Words
When you have a hard day or make a mistake, you might feel discouraged or bad about yourself. But Heavenly Father loves you. He is patient. He wants you to keep trying and not give up. He wants you to be kind to everyone—including yourself!
Jesus Christ Loves You!
Here are some of the Savior’s words that can bring you comfort.
-
“Fear not; I will help thee” (Isaiah 41:13).
-
“My peace I give unto you. … Let not your heart be troubled” (John 14:27).
-
“Mine angels [will be] round about you, to bear you up” (Doctrine and Covenants 84:88).
