“It has been said that the gospel of Jesus Christ is simply
beautiful and beautifully simple. The world is not. It is complicated, complex,
and filled with turmoil and strife. We are blessed as we exercise care not to
allow complexity, so common in the world, to enter into the way we receive and
practice the gospel. President Dallin H. Oaks observed: ‘We are taught many
small and simple things in the gospel of Jesus Christ. We need to be reminded
that in total and over a significant period of time, those seemingly small
things bring to pass great things.’ Jesus Christ Himself describes that His
yoke is easy and His burden is light. We should all strive to keep the gospel
simple—in our lives, in our families, in our classes and quorums, and in our
wards and stakes.” – Elder Gary E. Stevenson
