“When Jesus asks you and me to repent, He is inviting us to
change our mind, our knowledge, our spirit, even the way we breathe. He is
asking us to change the way we love, think, serve, spend our time, treat our
wives, teach our children, and even care for our bodies. Nothing is more
liberating, more ennobling, or more crucial to our individual progression than
is a regular, daily focus on repentance. Repentance is not an event; it is a
process. It is the key to happiness and peace of mind. When coupled with faith,
repentance opens our access to the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Whether
you are diligently moving along the covenant path, have slipped or stepped from
the covenant path, or can’t even see the path from where you are now, I plead
with you to repent. Experience the strengthening power of daily repentance – of
doing and being a little better each day.” – Russell M. Nelson
