“We have been married for sixty years. It is because of that
experience I understand the meaning of these scriptural words: faith, hope,
meekness, enduring, seeking not our own, rejoicing in the truth, not thinking
evil, and above all, charity. On the basis of that experience, I can bear
testimony that apparently ordinary human beings can take all of those wonderful
ideals into their daily lives as they rise through the buffetings of life. Millions
of you listening know such people. Many of you are such people. All of us need
such encouraging examples and loving friends. When you sit with someone as
their ministering sister or brother, you represent the Lord. Think of what He
would do or say. He would invite them to come unto Him. He would encourage
them. He would notice and praise the beginning of the changes they will need to
make. And He would be the perfect example for them to emulate.” – President Henry
