Lesson Recap: May 28, 2017

Fourth Floor, Last Door
By President Dieter F. Uchtdorf


  • God "rewards those who earnestly seek him," so we need to keep knocking. Sisters, don't give up. Seek God with all your heart.
  • What Faith Is:
    • Faith is a strong conviction about something we believe- a conviction so strong that it moves us to do things that we others might not do. 
    • "Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
    • Faith is more what we feel in our hearts than what we see with our eyes or hear with our ears.
    • For anyone that wants to increate their faith they should try and listen differently.

  • What Faith Is Not:
  • Faith is powerful and often it does result in miracles. But no matter how much faith we have, there are two things faith is NOT.
  • Faith cannot violate another person's agency.
  • Faith cannot force our will upon God. 

    • The purpose of faith is not to change God's will but to empower us to act on God's will.
