“A mighty change of heart is not an event; it takes faith,
repentance, and constant spiritual work to happen. It begins when we desire to
submit our will to the Lord, and it materializes when we enter into and keep
covenants with Him. That individual action has a positive effect both on us and
on the people around us. In the words of President Russell M. Nelson, ‘Imagine
how quickly the devastating conflicts throughout the world—and those in our
individual lives—would be resolved if we all chose to follow Jesus Christ and
heed His teachings.’ This action of following the Savior’s teachings leads to a
mighty change of heart. When we give our hearts to God, we are rescued from the
raging seas of this life, and in the process, we are refined and purified
through the Atonement of Christ and become children of Christ, being
spiritually born of Him.” – Elder Eduardo Gavarret
