Saturday Afternoon Session
“By This All Will Know That You Are My Disciples”
Excerpts
“Love one another,” Jesus said. “By this all will know that you are My disciples.” Very often, a person’s first testimony of Jesus Christ comes when he or she feels love among disciples of Jesus Christ. …
Anyone who is seeking greater faith in Christ or a closer connection to Heavenly Father should feel right at home in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. …
So, while we hold ourselves to the Lord’s high standards, let’s also be patient with one another. …
… To be of one heart, we must seek pure hearts, and that requires a mighty change of heart.
But that doesn’t mean changing my heart to align with yours. Nor does it mean changing your heart to align with mine. It means that we all change our hearts to align with the Savior. …
And if you ever feel like you don’t quite fit in, please know that you are not alone. …
… We are one not because of where we’ve been but where we are striving to go, not because of who we are but who we seek to become.
That is what Christ’s true Church is all about. …
And what if you’re different from people around you? That doesn’t make you a misfit—it makes you a needed part of the body of Christ. …
That doesn’t mean your job is to change everyone to be like yourself. But it does mean that you have something important to contribute—and that you have something important to learn!
